Fondazione di Vittorio does not run a lottery with ECOWAS

They certainly have extended their imagination on this one. The "Fondazione" does not run a lottery. It is, as the name suggests, a foundation.

ECOWAS is short for Economic Community Of West African States. It's mission is, quote: is to promote economic integration in "all fields of economic activity, particularly industry, transport, telecommunications, energy, agriculture, natural resources, commerce, monetary and financial questions, social and cultural matters.

I would say their priorities are set in other directions. Somewhat opposed to what is claimed in this e-mail.
