New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament for Bortianor-Ngleshie-Amanfro, Sylvester Tetteh, has questioned aspects of government spending on the National Cathedral project amid financial difficulties facing ordinary Ghanaians.

Speaking on Peace FM’s morning show, Kokrokoo, the MP said although he supported the construction of the National Cathedral, he had reservations about how the project had been handled.

He described aspects of the expenditure on the project as unfortunate, particularly at a time when many Ghanaians were struggling with financial obligations.

“We are now calling on a poor person to suspend his bond repayment while one person is gone with millions of dollars,” he said.

Tetteh said the concerns surrounding the project needed to be addressed, arguing that the government should reconsider its approach to completing the facility.

“I support the Cathedral, but there are some of the things I think it is wrong and we've said it one too many,” he said.

He questioned why substantial amounts had been spent on the project when the National Cathedral remained incomplete.

“Why doesn't he return the money since the Cathedral has not been built? That's how much we paid and that's unfortunate,” he said.
