Coalition Of Muslim Organizations (COMOG), an Islamic group has termed the proposed construction of a National Cathedral by the Government equal to the State prying in religious issues.
“COMOG has no protest to the building of Cathedral .
Christians in Ghana are capable of building a cathedral without Government’s involvement or sponsorship. Just as the government of Ghana has not been involved in construction of religious edifices for Muslims, Traditionalists, Hindus etc, it should be involved in the efforts by Christian to build themselves a Cathedral”.
The organization said this during a press conference on Tuesday.
The organization has also chastised the government for going on with the preparation to construct the Cathedral before suit challenging the proceedings at the Supreme Court is heard.
The organization added that, the scurry by the government to put up the huge edifice, even before the supreme court pronounces judgement on the suit “represents an utter misplacement of our priorities as a nation”.
