Just because gambling is legal...

-:It's true as you say, the bigger tragedy however is that these people borrow to gamble, the hundreds of betting outfits is what will kill the current generation, borrowing for investment is ok but borrowing to gamble with is what we need to urgently educate our people against. By the way, did you know these gambling outfits belong to top politicians?Immorality is right at the top of the ladder of leadership in this country

-‬: That is a legitimate business that is licensed similar to drinking pubs strewn all over. You even enjoy part of its taxes on the road you are standing on. The paradox of life itself.

Embrace technology but get gurus to put in 4 yrs old the dangers until it sinks in. Thats the best solution. Dont condemn.

Even though betting has always been legal, kitambo you'd always see sub-chiefs reprimanding boys who'd be caught nivakinaa isimbi cause everyone was aware it was a menace and it served no good even to the young men.

It shouldn't be easy to randomly open and run a mini-casino,tax the bigger ones like the gava is already doing,they'll just keep lowering the odds and people find it unattractive to place bets.
