Mombasa Senator Hassan Omar has appealed to Muslim youths who have joined radical movements abroad to take advantage of the Government’s amnesty and return home.

While hosting Islamic religious leaders from Nigeria, India and Burkina Faso in Mombasa to lay a foundation of a Law University to be built in Makinnon Kwale County, Omar (pictured) urged the Muslim youth to embrace modern education to gain skills, understand Islam better and become competitive in a fast changing society.
