The attendance of this programme was 315, including the chiefs of nearby villages, the mayor of Dosso, and many other renowned figures as well.

In his speech, Amir Sahib Jamaat Niger welcomed the guests and introduced them to Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya. He assured the local populace that this new Ahmadiyya mosque would be an ideal place to convey the message of true Islam.
