Jantuah has intensified his criticism of Apostle Professor Opoku Onyinah, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees for the National Cathedral project, over an alleged GH¢4.9 million payment discrepancy to the project’s architect. In a strongly worded interview, Jantuah cautioned Apostle Onyinah not to push him to label him a thief, stating that while he respects his position, the public will demand accountability for the missing fund
The controversy revolves around conflicting figures reported during investigations into the cathedral’s finances, with the architect initially stating he received GH¢113 million, while the auditor claimed the architect confirmed receiving GH¢117.9 million. Jantuah argued that as the head of the trustees, Apostle Onyinah is responsible for explaining the discrepancy, emphasizing that his criticism is not personal but a call for accountability in the management of public funds.
This issue has reignited debates over transparency within the National Cathedral project, which has previously faced scrutiny for procurement breaches despite audit reports claiming no adverse findings. Jantuah’s firm stance has resonated with Ghanaians demanding detailed financial disclosures from the trustees, placing Apostle Onyinah under pressure to provide clear, factual explanations to address growing concerns over the project’s financial management.
