The Director-General of the National Lotteries Authority, Sammi Awuku, has expressed his approval of the actions undertaken by the Akufo-Addo administration to rejuvenate the struggling Ghanaian economy. Awuku commends the government's implementation of significant measures, which he believes will yield positive results in the near future.

During an appearance on Metro TV's Good Evening Ghana program on Tuesday, August 22, the former National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party noted that even the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has been impressed by the country's economic recovery efforts. Despite acknowledging the current difficulties, Awuku, who now leads the NLA, is optimistic about the days ahead, asserting that brighter times are on the horizon.

Awuku passionately encouraged Ghanaians to rally behind the government's efforts in order to facilitate the restoration of the economy, ultimately benefiting the entire nation.

“We have to celebrate our modest success story which became the toast of the world. But now post Covid-19, the IMF itself is shocked at Ghana’s economy recovery. It’s been faster than they expected.”

“So these builders of the economy I am confident that they will be able to take us through these difficult moments that we find ourselves,” he said.

President Akufo-Addo received accolades from Mr. Awuku for acknowledging the difficult circumstances in which the nation finds itself.

He claimed that was the sign of a moral and trustworthy leader.
