President John Mahama has defended his stance against using taxpayers' money to fund the construction of a National Cathedral in Ghana. He emphasized that Christians should be responsible for raising the necessary funds for the project. Mahama also raised concerns about the location of the cathedral, stating that it would be problematic due to the concentration of major public facilities in the area and the demolition of several properties.
Despite his opposition to financing the cathedral with public funds, Mahama clarified that he has no issue with the idea of a National Cathedral itself. The President mentioned that a forensic audit of the project's finances has been completed and is awaiting review by the Christian Council of Ghana.
