Vice President of Policy think tank Imani Africa Kofi Bentil has criticised the Akufo-Addo led government over their determination to build the national cathedral.
According to him the way and manner in which funds are being raised for the building smacks of dishonesty and insincerity on the part of the government.
He further accused the Government of seeking to enrich its family and friends through the project.
“National Cathedral… A building for God?
Repugnant Idea even for devout Christians!
Christians always build our churches without looting scarce state funds!!! indeed the church helped the State! not take from it!
The project started on lies that it will NOT use state funds, then what did we see? The state demolished millions of Dollars worth of perfectly fine buildings!! is that not the use of State resources? after that, it’s been a series of terrible things! around a building for GOD?
Bad start, Bad process, Bad progress, taking state funds, bad communication, endless controversies!!
I am fortified in my assurance that Jehovah God whom we serve doesn’t want this building !! he occupies the whole Universe and spoke to Moses in the wilderness!
No amount of twisted logic around religion and baseless ideas of national righteousness can sanitize the stealing of poor people’s money to fulfill a promise to your god! and build a sick monument to yourself on the backs of poor people whilst enriching friends and family. stop it!!” he was reported by mynewsgh.
