Chairman Nana Akwasi,Ashanti Regional Chairman of the NDC has vehemently criticized President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo for his dishonesty regarding the funding of the National Cathedral.
He accused the President of deceiving the public, religious leaders, and even God about the project and its funding sources.
Despite initial assurances that public funds would not be used, it was later discovered that state funds had been allocated to support the construction, sparking widespread opposition and criticism.
Addressing NDC Members and sympathizers at Nyinahin in the Atwima Mponua constituency in the Ashanti region,he condemned the President’s actions as a blatant disregard for the Constitution, highlighting the failure to secure parliamentary approval for the use of public funds.
How on earth can you spend $58.1 million to establish the world’s most expensive pit? In the name of building a Cathedral? And the deception, you tell us you won’t use public funds, it’s a private pledge, only for me to start intercepting documents. Apparently, the eminent clergy has been deceived, the Ghanaian people have been deceived and worst of all the Almighty [God] has been deceived.
He however appealed to electorates to vote the NPP out of office if only they want development at their doorsteps.
” A vote for John Dramani Mahama as the next President of the Republic and Hon Stephen Yeboah as the MP is a vote for total transformation and development “He assured.
