According to New Year Mega Lottery CEO, considering the situation of our economy right now, we thought about creating jobs, and then, of course, the opportunity that Nigerians need to embrace to get out of poverty.
“Lottery was part of the good causes that were used to build the US, the United Kingdom, and the Western world. So why can’t we also practice lottery in Nigeria to develop our economy?
“You agree with me today, that with New Year Mega-Luxury, the numbers of agents, sales point agents, distributors, and mega-agents that we have today, the jobs were created, which is over 30,000 jobs today, which means we are adding and supporting what Nigerian government is doing.
“We have no other country than Nigeria, and this is the best way we think we can also contribute our quota in the development of our great country, Nigeria.”
What about the progress of the mega lottery partnership with the Nigerian Nationwide League? How is this thing also working for the Nigerian Nationwide League NLO? Former AFN Technical Director replied: “Nationwide League is the biggest league in the world, and it should be celebrated. That was why we came up and said, okay, we want to be a partner.
“And you agree with me today that the grassroots need support in the Nigerian footballing system. That is why we are coming in to support the grassroots through New Year Mega-Lottery and see how we can support the system to boost football.
“We are not in spot betting, but we are in the lottery. So we can go into football, we can go into any other sport, and which we are going to do. Of course, we are going to go into entertainment, we are going to go into different categories of entertainment, which, of course, we classify lottery as entertainment as well.
