SUP Chair, Mustapha Kanneh terms as meaningless the alleged denial by the national government to grant the Muslims a religious holiday; calls on President Weah and the legislature to act

As Muslims in Liberia climax the holy month of Ramadan, the Chair of the Students Unification Party is calling on the National Legislature and President George Weah to grant Muslims a religious holiday.

During Ramadan, Muslims fast from dawn to dusk for 30 days as a way to demonstrate their devotion to Allah the Almighty God.
The month-long observance culminates with Eid al-Fitr, a celebration that marks the end of the fast.

Mustapha Kanneh told journalists that Muslims in Liberia deserve a religious holiday to celebrate Eid al-Fitr just as Christians in Liberia have a holiday to celebrate Christmas.

The call for a religious holiday for Muslims in Liberia has been met with mixed reactions from the public.

Some have expressed support for the idea, saying that it is only fair that Muslims have a holiday to celebrate their religious observance.

Others have expressed concern that granting a holiday to one religious group could set a precedent for other groups to request holidays as well.
