Patriotic Sierra Leoneans in Maryland, USA, have formed an organization to support Ahmadiyya schools in Sierra Leone. The organization is called Zintabah USA and was founded three months ago by an international business magnate, Kalilu Fadika.
In an interview Yesterday with Sierra Express Media, the founder Mr. Fadika stated that the purpose of the organization is to generate funds to assist Ahmadiyya secondary schools with scholarship, library and laboratory facilities and renovation of school structures among others.
The organization, he said, will soon embark on a series of fund raising activities in the USA.

A very nice effort and I wish ZINTABAH great success. This also reminds of the fact that there is a significant number of former students of Ahmadiyya schools in Nigeria and many of Ahmadis-who came to USA several decades back- are found in various Cities in US. The African Ahmadis of that era seem disconnected,however, continue to cherish their old memories of the affiliation with AMC back home.
