Alhaji Osman Nuhu Sharabutu, National Chief Imam, on Tuesday observed that the illegal livestock slaughtering houses was negatively affecting the operations of the Ghana Butchers Association and the Accra Abattoir. He said the unhygienic places for slaughtering cattle and goats sold to unsuspecting public was a major source of worry and therefore called on the Municipal and District Assemblies to enforce their bye-laws. Alhaji Sharabutu made the call when he inaugurated the Accra Abattoir Mosque, a place of convenience, shower baths and a gas singeing plant at Lashibi, a suburb of Accra at the cost of GH¢46,000.
