The Muslim communities in
Prestea and Bogoso have taken delivery of items worth, about 3,000 Ghana Cedis
for the celebration of their Ramadan festival.
The Donation which was made
by the Golden Star Resources Bogoso Prestea Mines, is in line with the
company’s corporate social responsibility to communities within its catchment areas.
In the season of Ramadan Muslims across the world put themselves in the spirit of God by fasting for one
month and praying for themselves and the nation in which they find themselves.
As this is done worldwide,
Ghana as a country is not left out as Muslims across the length and breadth of
the nation go before Allah to seek peace and prosperity for Ghana.
It is in view of this,
that the G.S.B.P.L found it proper to donate food items that would aid them
climax the event.
The food items include,
Cartons of milk, cooking oil, perfumed bags of rice and more.
Receiving the items, both the Prestea and Bogoso Imams thanked the company and asked for more as the years go
by. The Imams prayed for Gold
price to pick up its price again as price of Gold has taken a nose dive for
some time now, so that G.S.B.P.L would have more income to cater of its host
communities
The Imams pleaded with
G.S.B.P.L to take the donation of items to another level where the company
would sponsor 2 persons to Mecca next year.

The acting Managing Director
of Golden Star Resources Bogoso Prestea Shadrack Adjetey Sowah stated that, as
it is annually done to strengthen the friendship of the company and the Muslim
communities, G.S.B.P.L would continue to support them anytime the need be.
He reiterated that, the fall
of Gold price on the world market would not hinder the development G.S.B.P.L
wants to embark in the catchment areas. Adding that, the sponsorship to Mecca
would be considered.
