Recent claims regarding a GH¢2.6 million loan from businessman Kusi Boateng to the National Cathedral project have been publicly refuted by Kwakye Ofosu, a prominent figure involved in the matter. According to Ofosu, there exists no formal agreement or documented evidence supporting the assertion that Boateng provided such a loan to the cathedral initiative.
The National Cathedral project, which has drawn significant public attention and scrutiny, is among multiple projects currently under investigation by the ORAL Initiative. This initiative seeks to ensure transparency and accountability in the management and funding of various national development projects within Ghana.
Kwakye Ofosu emphasized that rumors circulating in certain media outlets regarding the financial involvement of private individuals like Kusi Boateng should be treated with caution. He highlighted that no official documentation or contracts have been produced to validate the loan claims, underscoring the importance of verifying facts before drawing conclusions.
This development adds a critical layer to the ongoing discussions about the National Cathedral, a project that has been both celebrated for its cultural significance and criticized for financial and administrative concerns. The government and various stakeholders continue to navigate the sensitive discourse surrounding the cathedral’s funding and construction process.
