Eastwood Anaba, prominent clergymen, resigned due to the government\u2019s failure to appoint an independent accounting firm to audit funds allocated to the National Cathedral.<\/p>\n<p>Their resignation statement emphasized the absence of a crucial audit to restore public confidence, leading to their conscientious withdrawal from the Board of Trustees.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDespite our prayers, best hopes and wishes, unfortunately, a needed audit to help restore public confidence and trust in this consequential project has not been enacted to the best of our knowledge. Since January 2023, we awaited news to no avail, regarding the finding of the audit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe, therefore, regret that as a matter of conscience and faith, we hereby submit to you our resignation from the Board of Trustees of the National Cathedral, \u201d portions of the statement said.<\/p>\n<p>In January 2023, Duncan-Williams and Anaba advocated for a temporary halt to the cathedral\u2019s construction until an audit could be conducted.<\/p>\n<p>They emphasized the challenging economic climate in Ghana, proposing transparency through an independent audit by a nationally recognized accounting firm.<\/p>\n<p>Responding to the resignations, Dr. Paul Opoku-Mensah, Executive Director of the National Cathedral Project, clarified that both clergymen were aware of the engagement with Deloitte for the audit.<\/p>\n<p>He highlighted their participation in meetings, press releases, and updates on the audit process, debunking claims of insufficient information.<\/p>\n<p>Opoku-Mensah also revealed the rejection of the clergymen\u2019s resolution by the Board, citing redundancy and undue politicization linked to the 2024 elections.<\/p>\n<p>Despite attempts to politicize the project, the Secretariat reaffirmed its commitment to transparency and collaboration with auditors to complete the work.<\/p>\n<p>theindependentghana.com <\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Founder and President of World Wide Miracle, Rev.
