Former President Jerry John Rawlings has in a meeting with Trustees of the National Cathedral, indicated that he will defer his position on the construction of the national edifice to his mother church, the Catholic Church.
At the meeting on Monday December 24, the former President said while he had his personal opinion on the cathedral, the position of the Catholic Church of which is a member will be one he will respect.
The delegation which was led by Archbishop Nicholas Duncan Williams and included Archbishop Justice Akrofi, Dr. Joyce Aryee and Executive Director of the Cathedral, Dr. Paul Opoku-Mensah formally invited the former President to a fundraising event slated for the Forecourt of the Black Star Square on December 28.
Members of the delegation took turns to explain to the former President the need for the construction of the cathedral, conceding that the communication on the project had not been the best.
Archbishop Duncan Williams informed the former President that every effort was being made to ensure that Ghanaians were well informed on the processes leading to the construction of the cathedral to stem the mixed reactions that had been created.

Hypocrites JJ when JDM was doing massive developments you were criticizing and lambasting him with all manner of allegations to make him unpopular and seen by many as evil. why because you failed in your 19years in bringing developments. Your fear was JDM’ legacy will over shadow you and be mentioned next to Dr. Nkrumah. Your shame is to hide behind the Catholic Church to support cathedral which you would’ve talk openly with a tone more than a roaring lion if JDM should have initiated such a project with ***barred word*** allegations as if you know all. I pity you, your shame will come hypocrites.
After leading ewes into the wilderness. Now JJ wants to convince ghanaians. Now volta region is split and NPP is the beneficiary and ewes are the losers. believe it or not its the gospel, we are only waiting for an appropriate time to let ewes know how the so called angel has deceived them for his personal gains. This is POLITRICS and my people will live to regret
This is the time I will support you Efo Jerry John. When God appears in Ghana He will visit all prisons and orphanages and sleep by their side, not in so-called not in National Cathedral. The Catholic Church, mother of Christianity, please help the President, because the power has, has confused him. The President should visit the prisons and the orphanages and assist them so that God will continue to bless our Ghana. Sit up, Mr. President !!!
You have no head of your own know. Don't worry just eat and sleep. My greetings to your darling president. Hope you guys are planning for the next party. This time i want to partake.
