Chairma of the National Union of Road Transport Workers in Lagos State, Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya, aka MC Oluomo,has explained why he renovated a mosque in Lagos.
He noted in a Fa ebook post (sic): Alhamdulilahi Alhamdulilahi Alhamdulilahi
Years back, I used to pray in this Giniyi-Inasa mosque at Inasa when I was younger and during this period, I used to have it in mind that one day I will rebuild the mosque.
Some months back, one of my elder sisters invited me to an award presentation at the same mosque which she is one of the recipient, on getting to the venue. I noticed some children in the mosque were reciting the Holy Quran so I gave one of my brothers money to share amongst them.
On his return, my brother complained about the state at which the mosque was, the building was old, severe heat due to poor ventilation, and the place appears small to accommodate the worshippers.
So when the imam called me out for a donation, I just asked and begged them if they would permit me to rebuild the mosque and I was told yes. Alhamdulilahi, the mosque has been fully renovated within a space of 2months. Now the worship can pray in a more conductive environment.
