Popular actor, Prince David Osei, has condemned the decision by the government of Ghana to give out GHS 25 million for the construction of the controversial National Cathedral despite economic challenges the nation is going through.
In a tweet, the actor who declared his support for President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo during his election campaign, said, the government has missed its priorities.
The actor’s comment comes after news broke out that the government of Ghana, through the Ministry of Finance, has officially released ₵25 million as seed money for building the National Cathedral.
“Misplaced priorities, self-glory, greed, and insensitivity towards the plight of the citizenry. We can’t pay government workers, and staff, working tirelessly 24/7 yet we have GHc25,000,000 for a cathedral in this perilous time of our economy. So help us, God! I am sorry,” he said.
