Construction work reportedly resumes at National Cathedral site

Construction on the National Cathedral has recommenced following a prolonged suspension of several months.

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo initiated the project in 2017, envisioning it as a symbol of national unity and spirituality, with a targeted completion date set for 2024.

However, challenges such as insufficient funds, resignations from board of trustees members, and revelations by Member of Parliament for North Tongu, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, led to the project’s halt in 2023.

A video shared by GHOne on X has now revealed the resumption of construction activities at the site.

Notably, the footage shows the foundation of the cathedral covered, with heavy trucks actively operating on the premises.

The estimated cost of the National Cathedral is approximately $200 million.
