The National Cathedral being built by the Akufo-Addo government has seen a lot of bashing from the National Democratic Congress and some Ghanaians. The NDC has raised issues about the state funds being used to build the National Cathedral and the time it is being built. They argue the country is now in difficult times and so a cathedral shouldn’t be built now. Most Ghanaians agree with them.
Meanwhile, a senior high school girl who schools at Yaa Asantewaa Girls has argued that the National Cathedral will bring in a lot more revenue for the country and so Ghanaians should support him. She made these known when she was debating in favor of the motion “National Cathedral is a necessity”. She told her co-debtors and others who are against the building of the National Cathedral not to be an enemy of progress.
“ The Chair, the cathedral comes with multipurpose rental spaces, 1,000 banquet halls, restaurant and others. All these are multiple revenue sources for the state. My opponents, are you not the same people who tell the government to look elsewhere for revenue to end the needless taxes? So if this multipurpose edifice is going to give more revenue to the state, why do my opponent and people like them put obstacles in the way? They shouldn’t be enemies of progress.” She boldly revealed this.
