In a statement by the GNCLBBLOA, the private lotto operators pledged on the need as good citizens of Ghana to do everything possible to support Government with their licenses fees.

The Banker-to-Banker operators further commended Kofi Osei-Ameyaw, the Director-General of the National Lottery Authority (NLA) for the modernization of Lotto business in Ghana by:

1. Giving opportunity to Banker to Banker Lotto Operators, Agents and Writers to be registered and license under PPP initiative.
2. Scrapping taxes on lotto.
3. Introducing NLA owned Platform
4. Implementing the E-Kiosk project.

The statement further read “the doors of Ghana National Chamber of Licensed Banker to Banker Lotto Operators and Agents under the leadership of Mr Frank Adjei are open to lotto operators, agents and writers who are ready to work with us due to their inability to pay the license fees approved by the Board of NLA. We will assist such operators, agents and writers to pay their license fees to the NLA and subsequently work for us.”

Mr. Adjei then urged the Board of NLA, Security Agencies and Government to take action on it’s petition regarding the arrest of Nigerians, Chinese and other foreign nationals operating lotto in Ghana.

“Any group of people kicking against the registration and license fees for Banker to Banker Lotto business are “Nation Wreckers” and we would like to entreat the media, Government and general public to ignore such characters”, he stressed.
