National Cathedral audit report due this month – Mahama

President John Dramani Mahama has reiterated his administration’s commitment to tackling corruption by announcing an independent audit of the National Cathedral project that was set in motion by the previous Akufo-Addo government.

During a national address on May 7, in recognition of his first 120 days in office, President Mahama shared that the distinguished global audit firm Deloitte has been entrusted with the task of examining the controversial project.

“War against corruption continues unabated. Deloitte and Touche is conducting an independent audit of the National Cathedral project. I expect their report by the end of this month [May],” he stated.

Additionally, President Mahama revealed that investigations are underway regarding other government projects, including the organisation of the 13th African Games.

“A number of officials have been invited and questioned concerning the 13th Africa Games,” he said.

These initiatives are part of a wider set of anti-corruption and accountability measures that Mahama pledged during his campaign and continues to uphold as he settles into his role.
