Hapo kwa social media ndio nataka kuona how they will effect it.
Betpawa once put up a sponsored advert pale facebook showing guys winning serious cash na bet za small amounts za 20 bob, 9 bob, 22 bob. A guy sijui won 980K na bet ya 32 bob. By jioni every investor I know had an account na betpawa.
Hapa ndio sielewi. I thought we were living in a free country. If am deemed a celebrity why would the state limit me in ways i can earn my income. It’s actually a discriminative law, celebrities are citizens with equal rights.
