A government-commissioned audit by Deloitte has revealed massive financial irregularities in Ghana's National Cathedral project, with $97 million spent and little progress made. The findings have triggered public anger, calls for prosecution of former officials, and the dissolution of the project's Board of Trustees and Secretariat by President Mahama. Key issues include unexplained payments, failed mobile money donations totaling over GH¢38 million, and concerns about sole-sourced contracts and inflated architectural fees.

The scandal has become a symbol of broader concerns over corruption and misuse of public funds in Ghana.
