Hosted by the National Chief Imam of Ghana, Sheikh Osmanu Nuhu Sharubutu, the sacred occasion served as a powerful reminder of peace, unity, and shared devotion.Among the prominent voices offering congratulations was popular Zongo music icon, Baba Jamah. Sending a heartfelt goodwill message to the Chief Imam and the organizing team for a successful event, the artist took the opportunity to address the younger generation directly.

This focus on guidance, morality, and respect is a mainstay in his discography, heavily present in impactful collaborative tracks like "IYAYE (Parents)" and "Gabade" which celebrate community and honoring traditional values.Beyond his purely devotional releases, Baba Jamah’s widely recognized anthems like "God no go shame us," "Firgita kawai," "Akiyayemu," and "Masoiyana" continue to dominate the airwaves and community spaces. Whether he is lighting up local weddings (Awure) in Accra, Kumasi, Tamale, Takoradi, Bolga, Sunyani, Benin, Abuja and Mali, or commanding major festival stages, his live performances are celebrated for their magnetic energy. By seamlessly marrying his musical influence with community leadership. Baba Jamah continues to use his platform to steer the youth toward a path of peace, purpose, and mutual tolerance.
