Speaking Tuesday in Abuja during the verification of Loto companies with license to operate in Nigeria, Chairman, Senate committee on youth and sport, Senator Obinna Ogba, PDP, Ebonyi, who noted that it was unfortunate that Bet9a refused to honour their invitation, said, “Clerk, write to Bet9ja again. If they did not honour your our invitation again, we will ask the National Lottery Commission to seal their offices.
Senator Ogba who noted that the Senate was making efforts to assist the lottery commission to generate money for the federal government, said,” We wanted to see bet9ja. They can’t runaway,” According to Senator Ogba, their verification followed series of complains against the betting companies, adding that some do not even have offices while others have not been making remittances to the government.
He said that while verifying, about 20 betting companies that honoured Senate invitation, “some got the licenses but they are not operating. The new regulation only give them one year to start operations,”

vanguardngr Dear Senate please ban all the betting website not just bet9ja, including Baba Ijebu, many youths don't work nor think of how to learn trade, they all depends on betting and lottery. I SUPPORT THE BAN.
vanguardngr Bet9ja that have employed thousands of Nigerian youths both graduate and undergraduate, I think this is the right time our politicians should start thinking about how to tackle unemployment in Nigeria rather than causing the ones already have a job to loose theirs.

vanguardngr I detest gambling right from my infant. Beg9ja has bastardised busineses in Nigeria but few intelligent folks knew this menace. Youngsters are more interested to play it than reading their books It has increased stealing & loitering aimlessly on the road. I support the ban!
vanguardngr What wrong with the Senate, we have serious issues to treat in Nigeria rather than cheesing shadows, there are too many problems to handle, they should leave bet9ja alone
vanguardngr A welcome developmemt👏
