Gambling is now a menace and a social problem.

Gbogbo omo ti wa di oni tete tan.

Both young and old. Everyone is now playing one form of bet or gambling or the other.

I was at the hospital last year and a guy came to thank me (almost prostrating). Thanks for yesterday sir. I asked him what I did because I don’t know him from anywhere and he said he played baba Ijebu with the number (1947) on the cloth I wore the previous day and won. He said the most painful part is that he played with #500 and won 12k that if he had known, he would have played with 5k to win 120k.

He also said if he had won 120k, he wouldn’t go to work throughout that week.

I was speechless and dumbfounded at the same time.

I think we need to start letting the younger folks see the evils of gambling and the addiction attached to it.

We ask God for safety.

Is this government working for its citizens or against it?

All is well

All isn't well sir.

Back in the days (Before 2018) Gbagyi women will harvest their yam tubers and bring it all the way from the bushes to my house, which my dad will skillfully bargain big 12+ tubers for ₦1,700 and it will serve the house for almost a month.

Today, nobody brings yams for us to buy again, we have to go to the market to buy 6 tiny yams for 2k+

Mudu of ordinary garri is ₦750.

Things are very difficult, people gamble with the hope of getting money to survive, but the truth is that, they'll keep loosing their money to bet companies without winning any sensible money.

The problem is being lost in gambling.

What in life is not a gamble ..even you waking up every morning is a gamble so shut up

Motivational Speaker gambler spotted

Peele No vex

No drinking, no gambling, no fornication, I learnt all these from the Qur'aan long time ago

O you who believe! Intoxicants (all kinds of alcoholic drinks), gambling, Al-Ansab, and Al-Azlam (arrows for seeking luck or decision) are an abomination of Shaitan’s (Satan) handiwork. So avoid (strictly all) that (abomination) in order that you may be successful.

SURAH AL-MA’IDAH - Q5 v 90

Me i dont have time for nonsense, being a Muslim requires very good level of seriousness and focus.

Betting Is even a lesser menace compared to oloshoism,drug abuse, thuggery and yahoo.A dysfunctional system gave birth to these societal menace and I'm afraid they are here to stay.Dont even try to preach to them to desist if you are not presenting to them something better they can do that they will earn a living from, because they won't listen to your preaching.

Gambling has been in existence right from day 1
What should only be done is a way to regulate the system and proper education should be given to youth and young adults on the consequences of gambling.

Then tax it.. Make it make money for the states

Every bet placed is taxed 20%

Every wining is taxed 50%

Simple

This can generate over 5 trillion revenue for Nigeria yearly... States takes 70% federal takes 30%

What of hard drugs

They fall under intoxicants because drugs dull the senses and befog the mind, and whatever does that is haram. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Every intoxicant is khamr, and every intoxicant is haram (Narrated by Muslim, 2003)
