North Tongu Member of Parliament, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has said that despite the suspension of the National Cathedral project, evidence shows illegal withdrawals continued on the 31st of March, 2022 without the contractors returning to site.
He has called for a full accountability to be rendered.
“The National Cathedral Secretariat has been compelled to confirm what I put out as far back as June 9, that the cathedral project has been suspended by the contractors due to lack of payment.
According to reports, the suspension of the project was due to financial constraints.
Letters sighted by 3news.com and issued to workers by contractors Ribade Company Limited said “lack of payment from the National Cathedral of Ghana” has resulted in the suspension of the project.
“In compliance with such an obligation under the contract, RIBADE COMPANY LTD has no option but to issue this letter of notice terminating the agreement between RIBADE COMPANY LTD and you as per the provisions of your employment agreement,” a termination letter to one of the workers noted.
The notice of termination took effect on Monday, March 14.
