The inmates of Tamale prisons were not left out in the Eid-Fitr celebration as a philanthropist reached out to them to be part of the celebration. Alhaji Ibrahim Seidu, Deputy Director of Ghana Road Fund donated a total of 250 packs of cooked rice and assorted drinks to the inmates. In his address, he stated that he believes in work done hence his move to reach out to the inmates. He added that Eid is not all about enjoying alone at home, but reaching out to the less privileged in society matters most. He assured the inmates of his continue support to them and urged them to keep faith in Allah as they will soon be free from the bondage.  He also urged them to desist from activities that can get them back when they finally get their freedom. Assistant Commissioner of Prisons Mr. Joseph Ayittey who received the items on behalf of the inmates thanked Alhaji Ibrahim and his team for the good works done and asked that it shouldn’t be a one day wonder. He went further to ask other benevolent organizations and philanthropists to emulate the good work of Alhaji Ibrahim Seidu, by way of reaching out to the less privileged in society.
