President John Dramani Mahama has indicated that investigations into the National Cathedral Project, an initiative spearheaded by former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, will soon begin.
The President stated that an investigation would be conducted into the spending of the project.
Several Ghanaians criticised the former administration for investing state resources into the project.
There have been allegations of corruption and financial mismanagement about the project.
Speaking at a Christian National Prayer and Thanksgiving Service on Sunday, January 12, 2025, at the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA), President Mahama assured Ghanaians that his government will investigate the project.
“On the vexed issue of the National Cathedral, CHRAJ directed the government to audit the project and investigate any misuse of public funds. We will soon activate an investigation into the project,” he stated.
“In the current circumstances that Ghana is going through, it makes no sense to achieve such a project at a whopping sum of $400 million. I am informed that the National Ecumenical Centre in Abuja, which is used by the Christian faith in Nigeria, was built at the cost of $30 million.”
