Lottery Commission Intensifies Campaign Against Under Age Gaming by AnonPoet: 1:55pm On Nov 17, 2021
The National Lottery Regulatory Commission has resumed its campaign against underage gaming in Nigeria. The Director General of the commission, Mr. Lanre Gbajabiamila stated that this ongoing campaign will continue indefinitely after expressing serious concerns about the rise of under age gaming in Nigeria.

The NLRC resumed the media campaign against under age gambling with adverts on radio,tv and outdoor billboards. The adverts are in four different languages (English, Hausa, Yoruba and pidgin) to reach out to Nigerians about the menace of underage gaming in the country.

The NLRC has also called on gaming companies to improve their KYC and consumer vettand to also run similar campaigns to discourage gambling by younger Nigerians.

As a big part of the continuous sensitization, the NLRC is also taking the campaign to social media where there are digital advertisements on Facebook, Nairaland and Instagram as young Nigerians continue to increase online.

Allow them gamble o, the country is hard. They should rather intensify their campaign against underage voters cos Nigeria is bleeding seriously because of their (underaged) actions.

This I have seen.

Good one by the commission.

But how can they ensure effectiveness?

Even betting ads don't carry not suitable for under 18 anymore, anything now goes..

Reminds me of the time when we were kids and we would go to a playstation centre directly after school in our school uniform.

If the owner said No, we simply moved to the next shop that would take our money.

People, kids inclusive now see gambling as a way out of poverty. How do you convince them to forgo their miracle? Some kids even predict better than adults grin grin grin grin grin

All of this doesn't solve anything. Those underage are even their biggest clients. Send law enforcement agents to go after them across all betting centres. At d end all of them will still be compromised.
Naija matter get as e be!!!!
