Akufo-Addo donates $100,000 to the National Cathedral

President Akufo-Addo has donated GHC100,000 to the National Cathedral Secretariat for the project’s continuation.
Speaking at the ongoing Bible reading marathon at the project site, President Akuffo-Addo reiterated his commitment to constructing the cathedral, noting that it is more than a pledge but an act of thanksgiving for God’s mercies and grace on the country.
Akufo-Addo contributes $100,000 to the construction of the National Cathedral.
“The reasons for my decision to mobilize support for the National Cathedral’s construction remain unchanged. “At least 71% of Ghanaians adhere to the Christian religion, which is divided into various persuasions of the Christian faith,” he said.

The interdenominational national cathedral, he said, “would aid in bringing the Christian community together, so aiding in the promotion of national unity and social cohesion.”
With the help of all Ghanaians, President Akufo-Addo declared that he is resolved to fulfill his promise to God.

Akufo-Addo gives $100,000 to continue construction of the National Cathedral. According to him, it will serve as a focal point for the entire Christian community to gather, worship, and have in-depth discussions on how religion contributes to the development of Ghana.
The National Cathedral Secretariat’s executive director, who was present at the ceremony, countered that the claim that they are unable to account for all of the funds provided to them by the government is inaccurate.
