    This dude is very deep. Just wondering where he had his upbringing. Yes, he has a ghanaian name, not sure if he was born in Ghana. But whatever the case, he had a solid upbringing in terms of intellectual curiosity. I admire him for his deep intelligence.He is a gift for all black people. I wonder if there's any school set-up by him to train the generation to come with this talent.

      Of course not in Ghana, no Ghanaian who grew up in Ghana thinks like this. Ghanaians in Ghana just mimic and copy whatever white countries tell them to think

    We also have some politicians who are keen on tarnishing his reputation because he was offered a contract by the current government.

    A Cathedral! Why not build houses for the poor? The ALMIGHTY doesn't dwell in houses, churches, nor temples (2 Samuel 7:5 -7) (Exod 40:18)The ALMIGHTY said WHEREAS l have NOT dwelt in any HOUSE since the (beginning) time that I brought up our people out of the land of Epypt, EVEN TO THIS DAY, but have walked in a tent and in a tabernacle, in all the places wherein I, the (ALMIGHTY) have walked with ALL the children of Ysarel out of Egypt ( his people) spake I a word with any of the tribes of Ysarel whom I commanded to FEED MY PEOPLE!!
    That millions in $$ could have been used to feed and shelter the poor and the homeless. Our heavently FATHER dont need Cathedral, HE needs our HEARTS. The black nations already have too many churches!. We need to feed our people. On the day of reckoning, YAHOUSHA is not going to ask how many churches you have built! The questions will be ask, Did you feed the poor when they were hungry and thirsty?.Did you clothes them when they were naked? Did you provide shelter?

      His passion is monumental architecture. Statement architecture is immortal architecture. His cultivated mind has gained him a British title.
      Additionally, his business portfolio grows through grand spatial calling cards. Could he balance grand passion with your humble passion? Of course. Spatial and economic restraints would likely be good for his creative mind.
      Addendum: Humble passion must exist. Perhaps, when he retires from a quite spectacular grand immortalization of his architectural life and philosophy.

    If she’s worked for him that long then she’s an enabler
    He should be stripped of all titles and deported
