President Nana Addo’s National Cathedral project has taken an unexpected turn, transforming into a makeshift swimming pool after the construction site became flooded.
This shocking development has raised serious concerns about the project’s management and the utilization of taxpayer funds .
The National Cathedral, intended to be a symbol of national unity and pride, has been plagued by financial hurdles, construction delays, and controversy surrounding its funding.
With an initial budget of $100 million that has ballooned to four times that amount, many are questioning the project’s viability and oversight.
Critics argue that the government’s priorities are misplaced, particularly when considering the economic challenges Ghana faces, including 50% inflation.
The project’s board of trustees, headed by theologian and televangelist Kwadwo Opoku Onyinah, has faced allegations of corruption and lack of transparency ¹.
The incident highlights the need for improved planning, accountability, and responsible management of public funds to prevent such costly mistakes in the future.
As the project’s completion remains uncertain, Ghanaians are left wondering if the National Cathedral will become a symbol of national pride or a testament to poor governance .
