President John Mahama has intensified his anti-corruption campaign with a bold move to probe the controversial National Cathedral project.
He has revealed that global audit giant Deloitte has begun a full independent audit of the initiative launched under former President Akufo-Addo.
In a national broadcast on Wednesday, May 7, to mark his first 120 days in office, President Mahama left no doubt about his determination to confront graft head-on.
“The 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],” the president announced.
These steps form part of a wider crackdown on alleged financial misconduct, fulfilling a key campaign promise to restore accountability in public service and ensure transparency in state-led projects.
He also confirmed that separate investigations are underway into the organisation and expenditure surrounding the 13th African Games.
“A number of officials have been invited and questioned concerning the 13th Africa Games,” the President said.
