The Uganda Muslim Supreme Council has directed the Kumi District Kadhi with immediate effect to halt all Kumi Muslim council activities for a period of two weeks.
The suspension contained in a letter dated 2nd, May, 2022 and signed by Hon. Secretary General, Ramazathan Mugalu directs the district Kadhi to halt all the district council activities until the head quarter team visits Kumi in two weeks’ time.
The suspension follows the internal fight between the Kumi Muslim Executive Council and the district Kadhi, Sheikh Abdul Wahab which erupted due to some misunderstanding.
The joint committee which comprises the Executive Committee members and the College of Sheikhs held a council meeting recently chaired by Abdallah Ebokorait in Kumi Township primary school and resolved to suspend the district Kadhi.
According to Abdallah Ebokorait, the Chairperson of the Council during the recent meeting, the Mufti of Uganda should appoint a new Kadhi.
The district Kadhi Sheikh Abdul Wahab is being accused of allegedly promoting disunity among Muslims, embezzling funds, and disrespect among others.
District Kadhi Sheikh Abdul Wahab upon receiving the letter urged fellow Muslims to be calm and continue to pray for peace and unity.
