MARAWI CITY, Lanao del Sur--City Mayor Majul Gandamra said the rehabilitation of the Grand Mosque brings a ray of hope and a new beginning to the people of the City.
"This [rehabilitation of Grand Mosque] becomes a ray of hope for all of us, all of our constituents. This turnover ceremony gives a new beginning for all of our people," he said.
Gandamra extended gratitude for the support provided by the private donors and for the effort of Task Force Bangon Marawi to seek for potential donors to pledge commitment to support the repair of destroyed mosques.
After more than 10 months of repair works, the Grand Mosque has been officially turned over to its administrators. New members of the Board of Directors also took their oath.
Also known as the Islamic Center, the Grand Mosque is just one of the mosques that have been repaired using the incentivized compliance by housing developers.
The mosques that have already been repaired are Masjid Disomangcop, White Mosque, Masjid Darussalam, and Masjid Marinaut. The rehabilitation of Ramadan Mosque and Masjid Macaorao is also underway. (LELA/ PIA Lanao del Sur)
