Hon. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, Member of parliament for North Tongue and Chairman of the newly constituted Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) has dislcosed that National Cathedral Staff Pocketed between GHS20,721.00 and GHS29,838.00 As December 2024 Salaries.
In a recent revelation that has sparked outrage among Ghanaians, intercepted payment records show that staff of the National Cathedral Secretariat received hefty salaries between GHS20,721.00 and GHS29,838.00 each for December, despite the cathedral project being declared illegal. This development, highlighted by Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, Member of Parliament for North Tongu Constituency, underscores the ongoing financial strain placed on taxpayers due to a project mired in controversy and legal battles.
Ablakwa expressed deep concern over the continuation of these payments by the Akufo-Addo administration, particularly after a report by the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) recommended the prosecution of officials involved in the unlawful cathedral enterprise. Despite the President’s silence on the US$58 million cathedral project during his State of the Nation Address, the reality of unaccounted funds and questionable priorities has left a bitter taste among citizens.
However, with the recent electoral defeat of the NPP, Ablakwa reassures Ghanaians that the days of such financial mismanagement are numbered, as January 2025 marks the cessation of salary payments to the cathedral staff and the impending dissolution of the project’s remnants. This marks a pivotal moment in ensuring accountability and fiscal responsibility in Ghana’s governance.
