The National President, Association of Muslim Professionals (AMP), Alhaji Zakariya Ajiboye, has advocated extending membership to non member states in order to impact positively on the larger community of the Muslims.
Ajiboye said this on Saturday during the association’s 3rd Annual General Meeting (AGM) held in Bauchi.
He said that through expansion of chapters, more professionals would be captured on the platform, adding that this would aid the association towards spreading the knowledge of Allah.
The AGM agreed that Bauchi chapter would ensure that non member states in the northern zone join the association.
It also agreed that Rivers and Edo States in the South as well as Lagos in the Western region would work towards achieving this extension of membership.
Earlier, the Vice President of the association, Dr Bala Dalhatu, encouraged members to use their profession in the course of Allah.
He said that all the various professions were contained in the Quran, adding that members should continue to strive in the course of the Almighty by serving humanity.
In his contribution, the chairman AMP Rivers, Mr Saidu Malunfashi, stressed the need for members to work for the progress of the society, adding that such action would impact on community development. (NAN)
