Turkish Ambassador Distributes 250 Rams to Douala Mosque – A Symbol of Solidarity and Brotherhood

Описание: On Saturday, June 7, 2025, the Turkish Ambassador to Cameroon, H.E. Volkan ÖSKIPER, visited the Dogpassi Mosque in Douala 3 to distribute 250 rams generously donated by the Turkish Diyanet Foundation. This symbolic gesture of compassion and unity brought immense joy to the faithful community, who gathered in gratitude.

The ceremony was organized by the Grand Imam of Dogpassi Mosque and witnessed the participation of local leaders, including the representative of the Governor of the Littoral Region. It's worth highlighting that this very mosque was originally built by Türkiye as a gesture of friendship and cultural cooperation.

Following the donation, the Ambassador, accompanied by CTBC President, Turkish Honorary Consul, and First Vice President of the CCIMA, Senator Nfon Ekoko Mukete, along with Turkish business leaders, proceeded to visit the Bepanda Multipurpose Center. Here, they were shown a film illustrating the center’s current state of degradation. Committed to youth empowerment, Ambassador ÖSKIPER pledged to explore avenues for restoring the center, which provides vocational training in trades such as hairdressing and manicure-pedicure just to name a few.

This visit reflected the growing humanitarian and socio-economic collaboration between Türkiye and Cameroon, driven by people-to-people engagement and shared values of solidarity.
