too much sense will not kill you. the way these "see below" guys litter every thread is alarming

I urge Bet9ja to honour Senate invitation. I am confident the meeting would only end in goal goal with possibility of cashout. However, the odd for closing down bet9ja is 20.00 and there is no double chance of it happening.

Nt opissible, shut it down and mmm will resume, shut mmm down betting continues

Gambling is bad, majority who gamble in this country know it, but the still gamble, why?, because the feel that the economy is rigged against them, the hardly make enough from their jobs or businesses to survive on, the have lost hope in the system and Politicians etc.
The number of gamblers always increases, when the economy is bad and there is hardship in the country, i don't need to be an economist to know that bet9ja, nairabet and other gambling firms, have made more money since Buhari became President than when Jonathan was in power.

It will be handicap
