Director-General for the National Lottery Authority (NLA), Samuel Awuku has stated that he will not declare his intention until the New Patriotic Party (NPP) opens nominations for party members to express their interest in contesting for Parliamentary candidates in their various constituencies.
He disclosed that he will continue to support the Member of Parliament for Akuapem North Constituency, Nana Ama Dokua Asiamah Adjei
Samuel Awuku added that until the party opens nominations, he will not want to declare any form of interest in the seat to destabilize the current government.
“I will make my intentions known when the party opens nominations so until then, I am supporting the Member of Parliament and the Chief Executive to ensure that they succeed. When nominations are opened, I will consult my appointing authority among others before I will declare my intentions,’’ Samuel Awuku told Asempa FM.
‘‘Before I go into elections, I do three things, I listen, ask and check for myself if the grounds are fertile enough for me before I go in for the contest. If the grounds are not conducive for me, I will not go in to waste my money,” he said.
Samuel Awuku indicated that elections need a lot of work to ensure victory.
