Good day all,
I choose to use this platform to bring the scourge that has the potential to harm people.
Gambling is legal,same as smoking and both gamblers and smokers are liable to die Young
I have struggled with compulsive gambling addiction for 5 years and currently undergoing therapy..
While being clean for 3 months now,media hasn't been easy towards my course as ads of gambling sites pop up with reckless abandon which doesn't help me nor struggling addicts.
Every nook and cranny has a betting shop which is only perculiar to Nigeria.
I feel gambling should be better regulated for the sake of the sanity of our youth.
Thanks

I completely agree with you. I think that gambling should not be banned, but the obvious widespread advertising harms online casinos and bookmakers' reputation more. In my opinion, if a person wants to play fairspin, they will find this site and play in the casino. But if advertising is poked from all sides, then, of course, it will only have the opposite negative effect. What do you think, friends?
