Green Lotto Firm responds to claims of not paying N72.7M winner

There is a new twist between Green lotto and one of its customers, Sunday Nwachukwu, who won the N72.7 million jackpot after playing one of its games.

Green Lotto was dragged before the Lagos State High Court at Tafawa Balewa Square over their refusal to pay a businessman his win of N72,7000,000 winning sum.

Green Lotto, owned by Brentwood Multiservices Global Limited, has explained its decision not to pay Nwachukwu his winning claim of N72.7 million.

The lottery firm said the decision not to pay Nwachukwu was hinged on the fact that he engaged in irregularities, the Vanugard reports.

Green Lotto, in a statement by its Head, Brand and Marketing Communications, Imoudu Asekhame, further stressed that he does not deserve the money in question, adding that the matter was already before a court of law and will not join issues with Nwachukwu.

Asekhame added that the company does not pay fraudulent winners or encourage cheating and fraud in gaming, Leadership reports.

Part of the statement reads:

“It is important to note that sometime in 2019, Mr Sunday Nwachukwu, won the sum of N58,800,000 (Fifty-eight Million, Eight Hundred Thousand Naira) from one of the games we offer and was duly paid his winnings despite our suspicion of some irregularities in his play.”

Nwachukwu had, on 20th October 2022, testified before Justice Modupe Nicol-Clay that on January 29, 2021, he played a game with N330,000, and when the result came out, he won the game, but the defendants refused to pay him the winning sum.
