The proposed National Cathedral of Ghana

The Archbishop Nicholas Duncan Williams is intensifying his campaign to raise funds for the construction of the National Cathedral.

Government’s desire to put up the edifice has divided the country, with many describing it as a needless expenditure.

Duncan Williams, who is also Chairman of the fundraising committee, took his campaign to former presidents Rawlings and Mahama who have raised concerns about the project.

“They’ve all given us their blessings and they’ve brought up their concerns and issues they think we should address and look at.
