NASFAT’s seventh biennial conference  begins in UK

THE  seventh biennial conference of the Nasrul lahil l Fatih Society (NASFAT) has kicked off in London.

The conference, which started on Thursday and will end on  Sunday, is being hosted by the organisation’s United Kingdom and Ireland zone.

In a statement, the NASFAT president, Alhaji Ayodeji AbdulWahid Abdul Rauf, stated that, as a responsive and responsible global Islamic organisation, the choice of UK and Ireland zone for the conference  was strategic and  it was specifically  aimed at positioning the organisation as a strong voice in addressing the global economic crises, conflicts and environmental problems  ravaging the whole  world.

According to Alhaji Abdul Rauf, the conference is “equally aimed at  forging a cohesive Society where  members in Nigeria and those in the Diaspora  are able  to synergise  towards the attainment  of the aims  and  objectives of the society.”

He said the conference was originally scheduled for 2021 but was shifted as a result of the  COVID-19 pandemic which  engulfed the  universe.

The opening ceremony  of the four-day conference holds today at Kent Hill Park  Training and Conference  Centre, Milton Keynes, UK.

The opening address will be delivered by the NASFAT president, Alhaji Abdul Rauf.

Expected at the opening ceremony, where lectures to be delivered by renowned scholars and notable resource persons drawn from Nigeria and abroad, are delegates from various zones and branches across all  the formations of the organisation.
