The Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama'at has commissioned a new central mosque located near the ancient mosque (built in 1945) in Agindingbi area of Ikeja, Lagos State.
Speaking at the formal opening of the Mosque, the Amir Ahmadiyya Muslim Jaam'at Nigeria, Dr Mash'ud Aderele Fashola said he was happy over the new development because the new mosque is bigger and more presentable.
He said, the new mosque would continue to reinforce the presence of Ahmadiyyah in the area, adding that the facility would provide for respite if any unfortunate occurrence claimed the existing ancient mosque in the future.
Fashola said the incessant killing in the country has taken sophisticated dimension, as some people are allegedly using religion as a potent instrument to destroy the country.
"People are material incline using all means to amass wealth and religion has been discovered to be a potent instrument to capture people. Though, They are using different instrument but religion is the major instrument they are using now because they know that when it comes to religion people are ready to die," he said.
He said the religious leaders are assumed to be faithful and trustworthy, they have the power and position but they are using it at the detriment of their followers.
