Fight against COVID19 - BetKing supports Lagos State



BetKing is a sports betting company offering online and agency services in all states within Nigeria. With headquarters in Lagos state, BetKing is working towards becoming Africa’s most valued Sports Betting Company.

Amidst the pandemic, BetKing and J.J Okocha foundation represented by Master Agent Adeniyi Bello have supported Lagos state in the fight against COVID-19 by donating essential materials and food items to isolation centers in the state. The donation was presented to the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Health Dr Olusegun Ogboye in Lagos.

According to BetKing, "our donation to the isolation centers of personal protective equipment, hygiene products and food items is to support the state's efforts to suppress coronavirus spread in Nigeria." BetKing is committed to helping ensure the health, safety and well-being of frontline workers and volunteers who serve communities in the COVID-19 fight.

Dr Olusegun Ogboye thanked BetKing for the donation and said the items are going to be especially useful to frontline staff as BetKing intends.

In addition to supporting Lagos state, the company extended a hand to help mitigate the effects of suspended sporting activities on BetKing agents and their businesses, by creating a Kingmakers Fund. Through this fund BetKing made a series of donations to qualifying BetKing agents in Nigeria to provide some relief to the economic hardships in this time of crisis.


To complement the company’s efforts, BetKings’ community consisting of its’ Master Agents, Super Agents and Employees pulled together to contribute to the Kingmakers Fund through their Adopt an Agent initiative which was also aimed at alleviating the financial pressures currently faced by BetKing agents.

Managing Director, Gossy Ukanwoke stated that “BetKings’ support during this unprecedented global pandemic is in line with our promise to improve the lives of those in communities where we operate.

Over the years we have successfully delivered on this promise through job creation for thousands of citizens be it directly or indirectly; however, our primary focus during this time of crisis is to support the Government’s efforts to curb the effects of the pandemic. BetKing stands committed in the fight against COVID-19.”
