Cathedral As Important As Hospitals – Joe Mettle
Award-winning gospel artiste, Joe Mettle states that the construction of a national cathedral in Ghana is as important as building hospitals for the people. Therefore, government should do both if it can.
The gospel artiste made these statements while speaking in an interview on the Class Drive on Class 91.3FM.
Joe Mettle on National Cathedral and its importance
“The argument is there, people are saying the Cathedral or the things that are needed, all of them are important. These are not decisions we make for the government. They know what they’re capable of and what they can afford and what they can’t afford. Therefore, I think all of it is important, any of them is important.
“The argument was the fact that if we are doing the cathedral while we have other social responsibilities or other issues like hospitals and other things, they all need to be built, the hospitals are very important, the cathedral needs to be built, they need to be built.”
Minister Mettle emphasised that both are important and should be looked at concertedly.
“It’s important. However, at the same time we should look at all of it, we can’t do one and leave the other, if we can do all, that’s it.”
