Hon. Moijueh Kaikai who is currently in the holy land of Saudi Arabia with Alhaji M.S. Kargbo of the Office of the President for the 2013 Muslim pilgrimage (Hajj) arrangements made the remarks shortly after they completed the minor Hajj in Islam ‘Umrah’ last Thursday.
In a brief interview with the two men after performing the ‘Umrah’, they said: “It’s good to use the opportunity when performing such a religious rite to pray fervently for the country’s leadership and the nation as a whole”.
They said they prayed for the protection and guidance of Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma, and for the unity and peaceful co-existence in Sierra Leone.
“I think every patriotic Sierra Leonean needs to put politics aside and pray for the country. If our country forges ahead, it would be in the interest of all Sierra Leoneans,” Kaikai and Kargbo said.
