Orisun Awotan Central Mosque removes Kabelohun as Mufasir over murder case

Meanwhile, the Orisun Awotan Central Mosque has removed Kabelohun as the Mufasir of the mosque.

A source within the mosque made this revelation on Sunday.

Our correspondent learnt that the decision was taken during a meeting held in the mosque on Friday and had Chief Imam of the mosque, Alhaji Taiwo Huzain; Chairman, Orisun, Adaba, Akowo and Environs Muslim Community, Barrister Akib Akintola; and other stakeholders of the mosque in attendance.

The mosque, in the communique obtained by DAILY POST on Sunday, indicated that Mallam Abdulhakeem Abdulrasheed had been installed as the new Mufasir of the mosque.

The communique reads, “That Taofik Kabelohun should be removed as the Mufasir of Orisun Awotan Central Mosque. Henceforth, he is no longer the mosque member.

“This is due to his gross misconduct and the recent alleged murder case he is involved in. However, the stakeholders unanimously agreed that Mallam Abdulhakeem Abdulrasheed should be installed as the new Mufasir of the mosque with immediate effect after today’s Jumat service.

“That new committee should be inaugurated that will look into the affairs of the mosque. May Allah (SWT) rectify our affairs. Ma-Aslam”.
