Opambour Asks Akufo-Addo To Account For Funds Spent On Cathedral: "The Money Belongs To God"

• Rev Ebenezer Opambour has asked President Akufo-Addo to account for the funds spent on the National Cathedral before leaving office
• In a video, he noted that since Pastors are representatives of God on earth, they deserved an account of how the funds were used
• Netizens who saw the post expressed mixed reactions as some supported his demand while others laughed over the video

Ghanaian pastor Rev Ebenezer Opambour has passionately made an appeal to President Akufo-Addo following the New Patriotic Party's (NPP) defeat in the recently-ended polls.

In a viral video, Rev Opambour asked the outgoing President to render an account of funds invested into the controversial National Cathedral project and, if possible, return those funds to the national coffers in the event it emerges they were not appropriately spent.

Before assuming office in 2016, President Akufo-Addo pledged to build a National Cathedral for God. He commenced the process by raising funds for the project and also hired consultants to commence the project.

However, the cathedral's construction was halted after backlash from the public and the opposition, including the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

Following President Akufo-Addo's failure to complete the project, Rev Opambour has demanded accountability for the invested funds.

He contended that pastors are considered representatives of God on Earth and should be given an account of what the funds were used for since the Cathedral was a project being constructed for God.
