The mention of cathedral is very very irritating to us especially traditionalists. What kind of religious bias is that?? We also need shrines.
Superb to the Point. Period!
Very well stated with precision, power, perfection and purpose. As for the Christian Council, the least said about them the better. They should go and find their own land and build their own cathedral. Now this is the trillio ...

Maybe that occultist pretending to build a cathedral to God should sell the Abuakwa stool and use the proceeds to start this temple.

U fool oooo
I didn't read any sense in your post. Are you sure you had a mother and are from the sperms of 1 man? Mixed genes never provide brains
Mahama believes the prime site is not good for the cathedral but it’s good to build a hajj village at the airport
Yes, for Mahama, it is the perfect place for a hajj village. Beware of this man parading as a Christian. Christian brothers beware of this man.
Masa you're one of the finest mad people in ghana

Hajj Village

These are all useless schemes state money should not be invested in.

@ Saeed, your observation and comment are absolutely true
President Mahama, pls make sure anyone responsible for looting State funds in the name of a national cathedral should be prosecuted and jailed. This is your legacy term. Jail the criminals!!!

Because of people like you the country is in such a mess.

Thank y very much. Mahama is only interested in seeing a violent religion replace Christianity and Christians.
The destruction caused because of the cathedral was and still too much. Why? Don't we reason?

Where is religion taking you people in the first place? Religion takes nobody anywhere, and Western religions are the biggest scams that are holding the necks of Africans.
WHERE IS Frank Agyena-Karikari?
Let’s have his views on the National Cathedral, please.

I will not dignify lies and foolishness with a comment,let the pitiful morons have a field day.
The very reason I think it’s the best place. Location is importance. Pass there first for your prayers and continue where you want to go.
I thought our current president should know this.

All is political talking.Ghana a failed nation,short memories and political Jokers.

You are not serious. Flip flop. I pity the fools who voted for you. You have 2 yrs left and continue lairing to the people who wasted their time and voted for you.
A project of this magnitude cannot be carried out without an environmental impact assessment. If that was done and it came out positive, why then do we complain about location?
Once upon a time, the Jubilee House was branded as nkokɔ buo. Today, it is the pride of the nation. Vision.
Someone should build and operate it.
It is high time Ghana built a world class National Cathedral to glorify the name of God. We will be very happy if the one started by the former president is completed as soon as possible.
