The Member of Parliament for Akuapem North, Samuel Awuku, has published a comprehensive point-by-point rebuttal, seeking to definitively “set the record straight” against what he terms inaccurate reports about the National Lottery Authority’s (NLA) Good Causes Foundation.
In a detailed statement, the former NLA Director-General provided the legal basis of the Foundation, its four-pillar structure, and an extensive list of its projects. He addressed the controversial sponsorships head-on, justifying them as essential marketing costs that drove revenue from GHS 100,000 to over GHS 11 million, funding the Foundation’s work.
He concluded by citing international endorsements from the World Lottery Association and former Maltese President H.E. Dr. George Vella, and verified financial growth in the Auditor-General’s reports. Awuku stated unequivocally that he worked with integrity and left the NLA “in a much better state than I found it.”
The statement serves as his definitive argument that the Foundation’s record is one of transformative impact, not misuse.
