YUMBE-UGANDA, July 3, 2023, By Osman Draga

Yumbe Muslim district Supreme Council has ended Eid-al-Adha celebration in its district with friendly football match to deepen bonds with Care-Turkish that spreaded Eid-al-Adha joy to the hundreds of Muslims in the district where it slaughtered enough cows for the Muslims.

Individually the match was a success for Yumbe Muslim Supreme Council especially the deputy district Kadhi Sheik Safi Jumah who had amazing mental strength in the game who was actually man of the match as he produced astonishingly brilliant performances in the game which kept entire crowd cheering him up because of his indefatigable mental toughness.

District Kadhi another big name in the game who also made comic in the books, equally showed mental toughnes.

The Eid al-Adha is one of the most important festivals in the Islamic calendar, along with the Eid al-Fitr which was celebrated about two months earlier.

During Eid al-Adha, Muslims traditionally sacrifice animals -- 'Udhiyah' in Arabic -- to commemorate the Prophet Abraham's willingness to obey God's command by sacrificing his son Ismail and Muslims commemorate this significant religious observance with prayer, feasting, and acts of charity which Care-Turkish correctly did to the Muslims who account for between 83 percent to 90 percent of the population in Yumbe district.

The entertaining match which was played at Aringa Senior Secondary School play ground ended 1-0 in favour of Care-Turkey was cause of celebration because it was a lobbying strategy by the district Kadhi and woman MP Avako Naima to draw Turkish sight into aiding Aringa SS with infrastructural development because the school is lacking dormitories and blocks.SShiek Safi showing his skills as dribbles: photo accredited to Gule Adam
