The Member of Parliament for Ketu South and Minister for Culture, Tourism and Creative Arts has clarified that she didn\u2019t spend the GH\u00a290,000 support she received from the National Lottery Authority on personal gains.<\/p>\n

According to her, she purposely sought funding under the NLA\u2019s Social Corporate Responsibility Fund for the rehabilitation of the Anoenu CHPS facility, and it was for such.<\/p>\n

\"\"I<\/figure>\n

\u201cThat was exactly what I used the money for; not a dime was spent by me. So, it is ridiculous for anyone to say that I will take state money and spend it for myself,\u201d she said, speaking to the media at the premises of the Anoenu CHPS compound.<\/p>\n

Madam Gomashie said that the money was used to remodel the health facility and ensure it is well-equipped to meet the reproductive health demands of the locals.<\/p>\n

She said that she provided extra rooms, equipment, sanitary pads and borehole facilities to make it a full-fledged locally-based health facility.<\/p>\n

\"\"I<\/figure>\n

\u201cIt was a one-room [facility] which I inherited from my predecessor, with a shed in front of it. As we speak, I was able to use that money and more to put up extra rooms, give them equipment, subscribe, and build the water closet [facility] that I indicated,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She further stated that \u201cadditionally, we wanted to buy a poly tank for the community to store water for the clinic. But the Municipal Assembly Engineer advised me that it would be better if we had a borehole and mechanised it. So, there is potable water in the area.\u201d<\/p>\n

Madam Gomashie reiterated that the entire GH\u00a290,000 provided by the NLA was used for the intended purpose, aiming at the common good of her constituents.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
