It started on Thursday, 2 May, 2024 and will end on Sunday, 5 May, 2024.
In a statement released by the society, the 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 7th Biennial Conference was strategic.
“It was specifically aimed at positioning the Society as a strong voice in addressing the global economic crises, conflicts and environmental problems ravaging the whole world,” he said.
According to Alhaji Abdulrauf, the Conference was equally aimed at forging a cohesive Society, whereby members in Nigeria and those in the diaspora are able to synergize towards the attainment of the aims and objectives of the society.
Speaking further, Alhaji Abdulrauf said the Conference was originally scheduled for 2021 but was shifted as a result of the COVID 19 pandemic which engulfed the universe.
With the theme: Navigating The Current World: Strategies And Solutions For Relevance And Growth, Alhaji Abdulrauf stated that the position of the Society was that the world would be peaceful and harmonious when justice is allowed to reign by the superpowers of the world.
The opening ceremony of the 4-day Conference is scheduled to commence on Friday, 3 May, 2024, at Kent Hill Park Training and Conference Centre, Milton Keynes, MK7 6BZ, United Kingdom.
The opening address will be delivered by the NASFAT President, Alhaji Abdulrauf Ayodeji AbdukWahid. Expected at the opening ceremony are delegates from various zones and branches across all the formations of the Society.
