Gaming

The value of sports betting, online casinos, console and smartphone gaming, and esports is rising. Nigeria, with its rising population of people in their mid-twenties to forties, is witnessing this trend firsthand, as a number of reasons enable the nation, and its citizens, to help and make the most of it.

According to a BBC article, close to 50 million Nigerians have internet access, “with new users signing on in the fourth quarter of 2019.” A mobile device is one of the most common ways to access the internet – whether to check social media, Google a query, or play online casino. Smartphones are used by at least 53 percent of Nigerians. For day-to-day requirements and activities, more individuals are able to purchase or access mobile phones. As a result, the market has grown exponentially.

Furthermore, foreign investment in Nigeria’s telecommunications sector increased significantly in 2019 compared to 2018. This type of investment has a lot of potential. It can, for example, improve the product. Technology, including software and hardware, may be designed and deployed to a higher level. This, of course, increases the product’s attraction to customers. Foreign investment also boosts exposure, with companies like Betway establishing themselves as the biggest in the sector. Big names and collaborations may draw attention and improve a customer’s sense of trust.
