The Minority in Parliament is demanding that Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta be dragged before the House to answer questions on how GH¢25 million was advanced to the National Cathedral Secretariat for the construction of the Cathedral.

The Minority says the National Cathedral project is not a government project and wonders how public funds will be used for it.

Speaking on the floor of the House, MP for Adaklu Governs Kwame Agboza said the Finance Minister has a lot of questions to answer.

“I will request that the very sensitive issue about government’s expenditure on the National Cathedral of which has been in public domain and payment made from the public coffers is discussed.  I believe it will be in the interest of this country for the Finance Minister to brief the house on the circumstances leading to the spending of that expenditure because it is believed that those expenditures could be out of what the public procurement and the Public Financial Management Act requires.”
