Two members of the Board of Trustees of the National Cathedral project, Archbishop Duncan Williams and Rev. Eastwood Anaba, have called for its immediate suspension and an independent audit.
The men of God, in a statement, indicated that their call is based on the controversies surrounding the project.
They both believe that the suspension and audit will allow for greater transparency and accountability.
In a memo sent to the Board of Trustees on Monday, January 23, the respected men of God said “That in the spirit and cause of transparency and accountability to the Ghanaian people, the current Board of Trustees of the National Cathedral shall appoint an independent, nationally recognised accounting firm to audit all public funds contributed to and spent by the National Cathedral.
“Auditors will also audit the overall cost of the project. This appointment of an auditor shall take place before the deferment of activities of the Board of Trustees,” excerpts of the memo said.
“That current activities advancing the construction of Ghana’s National Cathedral shall be deferred until the atmospherics in Ghana are improved and the audit of the Cathedral account is done,” excerpts of the memo added.
