Ghana's tourism minister has rejected accusations of personal misuse regarding funds allocated by the National Lottery Authority for community health infrastructure. Abla Dzifa Gomashie told reporters that the 90,000 cedis came from the authority's corporate social responsibility budget and went entirely toward renovating a health facility in Anoenu, transforming the single-room structure into a comprehensive medical center.
The minister outlined how the investment covered construction of additional treatment spaces, purchase of medical equipment, installation of sanitation facilities, and provision of hygiene supplies to residents. A water well was also constructed following recommendations from municipal engineering officials to guarantee reliable access for the clinic.
Gomashie dismissed suggestions that any portion of the government allocation benefited her personally, calling such claims absurd given the visible improvements at the expanded health post that now serves the community's reproductive and general medical requirements.
