Vice President of IMANI Africa, Kofi Bentil, has clarified recent comments he made about former Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Godfred Dame, and the National Cathedral project.
In an earlier report published by on July 20, 2025, Bentil was quoted as accusing the former Attorney General of misleading the Supreme Court regarding the use of public funds for the National Cathedral project while making his submission on the July 19, 2025, edition of News File on Accra-based JoyNews.
However, in a Facebook post dated July 22, 2025, Bentil described the report as "misleading," stating that it captured only a portion of his remarks made on Joy News' Newsfile and failed to include corrections he made later in the same programme.
Bentil reaffirmed his strong opposition to the National Cathedral project, calling it "a patently bad idea," and maintained that the Akufo-Addo's government's claim that no public funds would be used in its construction was false.
