The Ghana Drunkards Association, led by Commander-in-Chief Moses Onya, also known as Drybone, has made a satirical appeal to President-elect John Mahama to turn the incomplete National Cathedral project into a national drinking destination.
In a viral remark, Drybone stated that the unfinished structure may be better used as a recreational zone, eliciting both amusement and controversy among people.
The National Cathedral was originally planned as a colossal religious structure for state ceremonies, with over $58 million invested in what many now refer to as "the most expensive hole in Ghana."
Critics have described the project as a symbol of corruption during the Nana Akufo-Addo administration, claiming incompetence and a lack of transparency in its implementation.
Drybone's sarcastic remark highlights many Ghanaians' displeasure with the stalled project, with some viewing comedy as a method to cope with the perceived waste.
While the suggestion is unlikely to be taken seriously, it reignites debate over converting the land for more practical or inclusive uses.
The fate of the National Cathedral remains a difficult matter, but Drybone's daring appeal has injected levity into the national debate.
