The Ghana Armed Forces Command and Staff College has recognised the National Lottery Authority’s contribution to its Golden Jubilee celebrations and reaffirmed its commitment to continued institutional collaboration.
The Ghana Armed Forces Command and Staff College (GAFCSC) has paid an appreciation visit to the National Lottery Authority (NLA) to formally recognise the Authority’s support towards the College’s 50th anniversary celebrations.
The visit, which took place on Thursday, September 17, 2026, highlighted the longstanding relationship between the two institutions and the importance of corporate partnerships in supporting national institutions and their programmes.
Representing the Commandant of GAFCSC, Major General Jackson Wonje, was Colonel Bernard Baah-Acheamfour, Director for Corporate Affairs. He led the delegation to the NLA, where they were received by the Authority’s Director-General, Mr. Mohammed Abdul-Salam.
The engagement provided an opportunity for GAFCSC to express its appreciation to the NLA leadership for the Authority’s support and contribution to the College’s Golden Jubilee activities.
GAFCSC Recognises NLA’s Contribution
During the visit, Colonel Baah-Acheamfour conveyed the College’s appreciation for the NLA’s continued support and corporate partnership.
The National Lottery Authority was recognised as one of the prominent corporate partners that contributed to the success of the 50th anniversary celebrations.
As part of the appreciation gesture, the GAFCSC delegation presented official letters of appreciation and ceremonial plaques to the NLA. The delegation also presented 50th-anniversary souvenirs and copies of GAFCSC publications, including The Flame Magazine and the African Journal.
The presentation served as a formal acknowledgement of the Authority’s involvement in supporting the milestone anniversary of the military institution.
Strengthening Institutional Partnerships
The visit also underscored the broader relationship between GAFCSC and the NLA, with both institutions recognising the value of maintaining strong partnerships in support of their respective mandates.
For GAFCSC, partnerships with organisations such as the NLA provide opportunities to support programmes and initiatives associated with professional military education and institutional development.
The College’s 50th anniversary represents an important milestone in its history, providing an opportunity to reflect on its contribution to military education, leadership development and national service.
The appreciation visit therefore extended beyond the anniversary celebrations, reinforcing the importance of sustained engagement between public institutions and corporate partners.
Commitment to Continued Collaboration
The engagement concluded with both institutions expressing an interest in strengthening their strategic cooperation.
The continued relationship between GAFCSC and the NLA is expected to contribute to initiatives that support professional military education while also advancing broader national development objectives.
The visit further demonstrates the role corporate partnerships can play in supporting significant institutional programmes and commemorative activities.
For the NLA, its support of the GAFCSC anniversary reflects its wider engagement with national institutions and community-focused initiatives. For GAFCSC, the appreciation visit provided an opportunity to publicly acknowledge the contribution of a key partner while reaffirming the importance of continued collaboration.
As GAFCSC moves beyond its Golden Jubilee celebrations, the renewed commitment between the two institutions provides a foundation for further cooperation and engagement in areas of mutual interest.
The appreciation visit ultimately served as both a recognition of past support and an indication of the institutions’ intention to maintain a constructive partnership in the years ahead.
