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.”
