Former Ghanaian President John Dramani has added his voice to the ongoing debate over the construction of the National Cathedral.
John Mahama explained in a lengthy Facebook post that the government does not need to prioritize the construction of the National Cathedral when there are more pressing needs.
He posted on Facebook:
“The public funding of the national cathedral, particularly at this time, must stop. Being a Christian myself, and deeply appreciative of the centrality of God in nation-building, I agree with most Ghanaians who believe that the project cannot constitute a top priority of government at this moment, warranting further injection of scarce public funds.
Because of the non-transparency of the processes and procurements associated with the project, I believe that the cathedral project should be a value-for-money value for money audit in other to open the way for believers who wish to contribute to its construction to do so.”
