Sports Betting: Man In Uyo Hangs Himself Over N22,000 Loss by dre11(m): 11:31am On Sep 08, 2016
A man in his early 30s, Mr. Uchenna, hanged himself in his room along Abak road in Uyo, Akwa Ibom state capital, after losing N22,000 to sports betting.

Our correspondent gathered that Uchenna was a perpetual sports gambler with Naija Bet and that he took the said sum he lost from his boss in the hope that he would replace it when he wins.

Uchenna’s roommate, ýIfiok, said the deceased had been lamenting after losing the money and got himself into a terrible state of mind.

“I went out to buy something from Plaza (the city center) and on getting back I found that everywhere was locked. I knew Uchenna hasn’t gone out and I wondered what must have made him to lock up himself. I tried to open the door for several minutes without success until I had to force it open. I then found him hanging from the ceiling fan in our room and his eyes had popped out,” Ifiok said.

A neighbour who spoke to our correspondent, Uto Udobia, decried the high rate of sports betting which has become prevalent among the youths and even elders.

She called on government and other regulatory agencies to check the sports betting activities, stressing that it is pure gambling and it is already fuelling crime among the youths and also derailing their career.

Mtchewww, what's 22k that will cause a man take his life, Foolish man if the story is true.
May he never rest in peace, gambling is a game of the mind, as a gambler you should always assume that the money staked is gone if you eventually win glory be to God.

I concur with the person that called on the government to do something about betting in this country, is becoming an epidemic which is making our youths lazy.
They even steal just to play bet.

This is Despicable.... and Highly Insane...

MAN KILLS HIMSELF FOR 22,000 LOSS ON SPORTS BETTING...

can you imagine that...

i see SEUN Smiling in Corner Saying " ;DFinally I am Justified grin"

This is Arrant Nonsense...

During The Wall-Street Crash,

So many People Lost their Minds and So Many People Died...

But that Doesn't Mean they Died Because of The Wall Street Crash...

It Simply means.... THEY DIED BECAUSE THEY CRASHED ALONG WITH THE WALL STREET....

Man Died When Federal Government Demolished His 2 Filling Stations during the Badagry Express Road Expansion...

Does that mean the Federal Government is Wrong for Expanding Roads...

Men not being Able to Control the Excesses on their Emotion is Just a Major Factor.... in this Case...

and To the Man That Died==== I WOULD SAY THIS HE NEVER DIED BECAUSE HE LOST 22,000 NAIRA ON SPORTS BETTING...

HE DIED BECAUSE HE LOST HOPE ON LIFE AND WAS READY TO DIE...

#IStandForSportsTrading..

I stand Against Gambling of Any form... So for Those About to Quote me Just Don't bother...

But in this Case the Man is Just a Gambler Who Never Got to Check the Definition of Gambling in the Dictionary Before Setting Out on it...


Sports Betting is No Gamble when you Know How to Do it Right....

Emotional Excesses is On of the Major Problem We Have... In Both Forex, Sports Trading, Binary, and Stock...

Control your Emotions...

Never Gamble with Your money....

No When to Stop....

Learn From Your Mistake...

Rule Your Greed... Never Let your Greed Rule You...

Be Patient and Learn Never Rush into What you Don't Know about..

Prepare for an Opportunity and Then Strike...

Never Wait for an Opportunity Before Striking...

Risk is No Gamble...

Calculated Risk is the Deal....

Put What you Can Afford to Loose...

Never you Be in an Hurry To Win...

Always Appreciate Your Loss & and See the Avenue to Learn from them...
