Top Sports Betting Sites in Kenya
The Coronavirus pandemic is taking over the world and one sector that is suffering hard because of it is sports betting in general.
With the collapse of global sporting events due to the pandemic, East Africa’s gambling sector is a total mess as betting markets have shrunk dramatically. More cause for concern is the fact that not many in the region partake in online betting.
According to Google, betting remains a craze among Kenyans particularly, and in 2019 the Gaming Bill which was published on May 28 seeks to regulate the industry. This Bill aims to introduce big licensing fees for betting companies looking to set up in Kenya by raising the minimum amount of bets.
Most betting companies in Kenya offer different odds on all events and by searching around you can maximize your winnings by selecting the best odds.
