President Akufo-Addo said even though the country is in hardship, he is however optimistic that with determination, his government will be able to turn the fortunes of the country around.
“Yes times are difficult but difficult times also call for resolution, they call for strength, they call for commitment. And that is what hopefully, I am sure that with determination, that, come what may, my government will work our way out of the difficulties we have in this country,” he said.
“It is not permanent, Ghana is a land with many possibilities, and even though we are caught up in global situation like many other countries, we can still find our way forward. And that’s my determination.” he ended.
The Metropolitan Archbishop of the Anglican Church in charge of the province of West Africa, Rev. Dr. Cyril Ben Smith has also backed the President’s relentless desire to build the national cathedral.
According to him, God is faithful to see to it that the President’s promise to build a cathedral comes to pass.
He thus encouraged the President to proceed with his promise to God.
“Your Excellency, your building of the national cathedral is a long testimony of your devotion to God and no matter what the naysayers say it will happen,” he said.
