The National Chief Iman, Dr. Sheikh Osman Nuhu Sharabutu has once again lauded Dr. Joseph Siaw Agyepong, Executive Chairman of Zoomlion and the Jospong Group of Companies for the successes they have chalked in the waste management and sanitation industry in Ghana in particular and the African Continent as a whole.

He said Jospong’s faith and commitment to serving humanity is a direct reflection of his faith and commitment to the Almighty Allah which is the citadel of his successes which is unknown to some circles of society.

Dr. Sharabutu said this when Mr. Agyepong and top management members of the Jospong Group joined him on Friday at the late Imam Abass Memorial Central Mosque at Fadama to give thanks to Allah for His mercies on the JGC in Accra as part of the climax of the Jospong Group’s one-week annual thanksgiving service.

Boniface Sadique, Former MP for Kasoa and Aide to Former President John Dramani Mahama, Mr. Abu Sadat Lami and the Municipal Chief Executive Officer of Ayawaso North, Hon. Mohammed Aminu Zakari among others.

Dr. Jospeh Siaw Agyepong on his part expressed gratitude to the Chief Iman for his unrelenting prayers for him the business conglomerate and perpetual counsel he provides to him at any point in time.

He said “your entrenched position to stand by us in prayers during good and bad times is indicative of the fact that you are a father for all and we at the Jospong Group will continue to collaborate with the Islamic Community in the country to ensure that the country benefits from our endeavours”.

Boniface Abubakari Sadique commended Dr. Agyepong for his enormous contribution to the development of Ghana in particular and Africa as a whole.
