His Excellency the Kenyan Minister of Defense, Mr. Aden Bare Duale: We extend our appreciation to the MWL as imams play a very important role in shaping societies, advocate for peace, tolerance & coexistence among societies & religious groups. Imams influence extends to political gatherings. Imams need to advocate for tolerance and peace among all religions. They are key to government's efforts to maintain order and stability and to confront terrorism. Our country and economy cannot develop in case of insecurity or societal instability.
