Dr Okoe-Boye, speaking on Accra based Peace FM, said in as much as he respects those who engage in lotto staking, it would be inaccurate to conclude he was one.
According to him, he has the habit of engaging all the kinds of businesses in his constituency be it church establishment or Lotto business.
“A good leader must learn to tolerate and accommodate different shades of faculties and practices provided the activities are legal and accommodated by our laws,” he said.
