Reno Omokri has called on President Tinubu to ban sports betting apps in Nigeria so as to stabilise the Naira and improve economy.
Reno Omokri wrote, “President Tinubu can immediately improve the economic conditions of most Nigerians and make the Naira grow by issuing an Executive Order authorising the Nigerian Communications Commission to ban sports betting apps from the App Store of any GSM Internet Service Provider in Nigeria and revoking the licenses of any physical sports betting operators in Nigeria. It makes better sense than Buhari’s draconian #TwitterBan.
“There is such an epidemic of gambling in Nigeria and it is destr%ying Nigerian youths. $1 billion is spent on g@mbling daily in Nigeria, according to the National Lottery Trust Fund. Please fact- check me. The average Nigerian spends $15 daily on sports betting and other types of g@mbling, with the vast majority of that amount leaving our economy and going to places like Russia, South Africa, and Europe. The Naira can never sustain its rally under such circumstances.”
