Solicitors & Lawyers: Is There A Law In Nigeria Against Gambling/lotto by viperman: 11:02am On Feb 05, 2010
Hi All,

I am looking at setting up a gambling gameplay in nigeria.
It will be played over a website and via sms.
I would like to know if there's any law either from NCC or any other body against such in Nigeria?

sorry to burst ur bubble but to be able to undertake this kind of buisness you need to get a license from the national lotto commission and also from the state lotto commission you plan to operate in.

The above license dont come cheap. I cant remember that of lagos state but that of national cost 20M.
