February 23, (THEWILL) – BetKing, the popular Nigerian digital sports betting platform, recently celebrated five years of providing top-notch sports entertainment in the country.
The “BetKing Big 5 Cocktail” event was held at The Wheatbaker Hotel in Ikoyi, Lagos. It was attended by key stakeholders and executives of the brand, who were honoured for their contributions to the company’s growth. Managing Director, Gossy Ukanwoke, who manages KingMakers, expressed gratitude to all stakeholders and reiterated the company’s commitment to responsible gaming.
It was an opportunity for BetKing Nigeria to recognise its employees, partners, and other stakeholders, who have played a significant role in the company’s progress since its inception. They rewarded their customers with #5for5 promos and hosted a novelty match featuring staff, agents, media, and sports-inclined influencers.
BetKing has recorded massive growth since its entry into the Nigerian market, with about 165 million bets placed on its platform, an agent portfolio of over 30,000 across the country, and over one million users. The company has become a recognisable brand in Nigeria, especially in the betting scene.
The company’s CSR interventions, which cut across youth and women empowerment, sports, health, and education, have also been significant over the past five years even as they continue to profit from the venture.
