5:35 pm
don't, when you'll collapse, people collapse here in the shop and we never know if it is true to hunger or any other conditions. people get hurt here. we seen a lot of people that have collapsed he up as a body man. if you have a take on sports gambling across the african continent or experience, we would love to hear from you in the youtube comment section right yet. now life be part of today's show. and joining our discussion, we have said boom glazed somali, somali me i katana. she is the executive director at the south african responsible gambling foundation. and she is in johannesburg. genius, my boss, a jolly is a social scientist at the malawi. epidemiology an intervention that research unit. he has studied youth participation in gambling, and he joins us from black tire malawi and joining us from kenya's capital, nairobi, nelson. we re, is programs officer at the responsible gaming federation of kenya. se salon galle,
5:36 pm
junius nelson, welcome is so good to have all 3 of you here. i'm going to start with a little assignment that we sent. i nairobi cru off to do in kenya earlier this week. they were outside of betting shop and they spoke to a couple of gamblers and this is what they told us. bidding in today, we're doing dinner. we've batting is removed many of us from a life of crime, but it has many advantages. and one cannot sleep hungry if it is played right. so we ask for the government to support the batting injury fund. i'm so who do not move in a bit in 2019 i $1900.00. but since then i've lost and lost. now i have no more money, but i'm hopeful i will win next time by another. ah, how for the bread and neck spread that in 2019 and $1900.00 and it's all downhill from there. oh, the wrong way,
5:37 pm
i am wondering hearing those cautionary tales and optimism at the same time. why is sports bread and doing so well across the african continent right now when he's driving that? yeah, i think one of the reasons is that, you know, is an accessible, you know, i'm, for instance, in south africa actually don't have to go into a casino like you do, you do it on your mobile phone. yes. there are those that, that have ugly. it's, but one of the biggest driving factors in or to go in south africa is that it's accessible across all or what vices. so that is the, for each to grow. but also, i'm, it's embedded in the sports. i mean, you know, a big sport is, especially in south africa, if you see a lot of p, people across, across all our sporting,
5:38 pm
i think you've got to you quicker to go deal like be, you've got so caught. so it's, it's, it's popular, you know, sports is popular across the world. so in africa, why not, why would it not grow? i'm actually surprised that it took a very long time for sports. they tend to grow in africa. and if you look at it changes, i'm, so my guess to discuss it maybe started picking up in the, in the late ninety's all along sports betting in africa has been really most popular. what has been popular though is our customers are the genius. this idea of sports on the cost, the african content being super popular to that means, does that necessarily mean that gambling then has to be super popular? well, not an essay says no sir, was to be like that in my opinion. but then these people are, this is this gambling companies, or they have,
5:39 pm
this is sophisticated marketing. they have this aggressive marketing well by a leg. what i'm going to say, you don't disturb, to get a gambling, a very little gumble and the wherever you're going in the street, you are exposed to some gambling, adamant. so it's like the marketing is very sophisticated and with that, people are exposed to gambling everywhere, exposed to gambling, where you are in the streets when you enter the dentist, because i'm like, wow, you will not walk 10 to 30 meters, are about about to enter to meet as well, without seeing a billboard for a gambling company. like we have remembered as was why i'm started by the feet. that is, if you and down, if you said to still also people, when did i do? it won't want you to feel you find an out of it under to be able to for governing. you leave the do you try to see, to check your form to say,
5:40 pm
let me do some internet, you find it out of it for a gambling on the internet. so you see they have to, for up to the sophisticated marketing mechanism. and this, that has a few of the growth of gambling industry, and many people posted in that in our african setting, a, an improvement is very high. so when somebody is exposed to assuming it an opportunity that looks like is going to change the last leg from what that young man will say, they're easy to jump on it. now some get help, let, let me jump on that on. so for me, i really appreciate my fellow guests if my fellow panelists on these hours point because the gambling ah, is something that is, are spreading like wildfire. it's got this feeling like 158 has been spreading before and the root cause has been dot gambling started. the traditional form of gambling was b because he knows it was maybe these informal, formal,
5:41 pm
informal beatings in their streets. but it wasn't, or the way that we had envisioned online gambling will bring it to, you had to go there. you had to have time to go there. you had to have time to q to play. you had to have time to q to collect your winnings. all these you had to do it in a, in their space and time that the premises that you are going to is opening. but right now when there we find that our gambling right now is something that you can do with your phone with all, ah, without any restriction. and i, it makes it very much a popular and are very much secretive and accessible for people who didn't even have those ready to gamble before anything. now. and then we give our audience some either some of the big betting companies across the african called to have a look here on my laptop. i said we got back inc. my gerry, over 160000091 using the a c c. a bonus feature that way the best choice for betting. look at the phone it
5:42 pm
or on the phone. one more here that night is mobile app help you bet on football and no sound. got us slightly blame kenya and the brilliant and pesa which brought banking to your phone, which means that the tech was available for people to. but even if they didn't have a banking, how they can do it so easily. is that an issue with the amount of sport spreading that is happening across the african continent and an uncanny definitely definitely. when you come to mobile money, alicia, is that the way we spend money on in the rural areas did even i used to have any form of banking before. but right now they can hi accessed banking any time that they want just on their phone. it's as easy to send money as abc saw are the gambling companies also took advantage of that? and you can see that they have put,
5:43 pm
that they have seamlessly integrated their mobile money with their systems. so that when you deposit the money, it's the immediate and when you read the draw, it's immediate. ok. these also with the sports betting coupled with our passion, you know, that's what we've, we haven't talked about our passion for sports as youths, as young people. our passion has been milk to by, by the companies, and i, this is, it has brought about, i can see a brilliant concussion. that is a safe haven for any gambling activities to continue in there. in africa. i just come in there. i think there's 2 things that i need to pick up on that a. 5 first of all, how marketing efficient taking pending, i think, you know, sort of going to context. we've got very strong legislations that actually made sure that you know it perhaps the amount of advertising or marketing by company.
5:44 pm
but it's, it's, it's actually amazing to say then was with what the regulation and the legislation that tabs, you know, how much a people in the exposure of kids, of people. it's growing less if you can look at your mission. that way, it's one of the most responsible about it. i don't think that they have me actually go on social media and ties. and the key way, i think i'm to entice me longer and they entice a little read. well, how, how would you describe enticement when you're talking about and a betting company, a gambling company out how, how do you live in, in k? yeah, yeah, that's actually the one that's 190900 dollars in the $29.00 days. yes. so basically you want to see if you gamble you, you can become immediately more so in our context, we've got to what we call that response and we'll get, which is actually what open it is a slab to they are mostly prevented from advertising and enticing people to say
5:45 pm
i'm, if you can, will use them a chance of becoming a media. nick is the same as i can assist them in our country who had to see, you know, trying to link up with the, with the, with the interview just because i that you know, when gambling happens, it needs to be a refundable, but that's not to take away the stigma that leads to i think, i said one guy, i'm going to bring in the ceo of gamble alert in nigeria because he talks about this narrative is narrative about you. you can when you can when bake. and then genius come up the back of that because i know you want to take us in a different direction. so we're gonna do a zario. ok. he has no relation. he's the ceo of gamble alert, and we spoke to him earlier. this is what he told us. this is messiah
5:46 pm
battle gambling or young with guns and young people can never say. and one major issue is that with coming addiction or financially. and therefore, i look forward to hearing those coming off with policies and turn to responsible markets and stopping to iraq to reach his narrative. disco hacks. yeah, well from that video on the post do said that he has mission to say, hey, dumping into siblings improvement. well find out good. yes, it brings improvement. but then i might not know from nigeria perspective, but then from my understanding that we did it from the article that to pub you
5:47 pm
cited you say that the payment that is going to these way. cuz when i talked to said that they'd been commission. so if you have been doing permission, it depends on how many tickets benting tickets that you're sell. so for example, one targeted one to start getting you started getting as low as any question. so if you sell any quite a tickets, what is it if we're converted to dora is point 0000 cents. if we continue doing it and just brought up. so assuming somebody says, yes, so maybe $1520.00 by the end of the month, they pay and i don't need that come from this a gambling job or not to be now hello. so why don't we have that? yes, it has created jobs. were financing, but they jobs and they did jobs that couldn't make somebody has survived one to set it. you know, there was even it, some people that a, a gumbo a,
5:48 pm
that even those that i any brilliant. so you see, yes, i agreed to get in for improvement, but then they put them in to self. why he does not give. they did it, they added to the adamant income, yet i'm only got to do to because i have our views on each of our eager to get into the conversation. i'm going make this as speed around announcing your instant reaction to what our audience is, where it's picking up. um, so as a gamble, as a must gamble responsibly, i'm not sure if that is an oxymoron. is it now thank when it comes to responsible gambling? i think the gamblers are the ones who are suffering the button. i to be told that that responsible gambling only lies on their shoulders. but this is not the case. responsible. gambling is an environment created by all the call does. it's
5:49 pm
a multi faceted environment. that's what i think, where the government should be responsible one. ah, because for the rules and regulations that they put in the enforcement of the rules and regulations to their gambling companies themselves, they should clear that responsible gambling environment. we are the identify at risk people, people who have issues and i said 3 got us methods to make about it to make sure that these people are being looked after and don't spiral into our problem gambling . and let me, let me, let me get, let me get back to you too, cuz i haven't completed just participate. so don't know if i could retorted that quickly. oh yeah, go ahead. thank you very much. another facet of their disposable. gimme a gambling it belongs also to this was that this also had these should be able to, to, to stop the stigma that he touched and accessories specially to school. so if i look at to us portugal or most schools in k,
5:50 pm
i will find that the harvard school drugs policy, they have an alcohol policy and not i'm going crazy. i love, i love that. all right, i think i want to becky is on you chip. i'm going to put this to you said bung delay very quickly again that he says there is need for serious regulation, especially with gen z gamble his thoughts yes. i mean, who is got the laws and he doesn't pay lead to anyone under the age of 18 together on any terms of this other kinda sponsible gaming foundation, we've got to what do we cause taking wisely. it's a program that we actually take to schools where we teach people young kids in. busy school about the effective or the effect of weight on it, because i have that the cancer is built in a school environment to wake eat. they were later on on everything and grow that would actually adopted that behavior. so i can see that there was
5:51 pm
a kid that witnesses that no one under the age of 18. so campbell, i'm going to bring him randolph here. i, randolph, i'm going to play full a you genius, and then immediately react of the back of where his largest concern. ah, his mind off. contrary to the perception and a promise of an easy and see if we go from making money. these benson establishments have been set up to profit of losses of individuals. they are not the chinese iep organizations handing out of cash and copied out to the use of africa rather be i here to dig from our vulnerable youth. so surely a more i'm and by advertising these establishments, rianna preaching to our youth, to for war hardwick and excellence in pursuit of fools, paradise. well,
5:52 pm
is it okay from what you're saying? if i, if i'm to put it in this way gambling, it's a game of walk, that's the, the st. and so understand that, well, what did gun brings a game of war or say even if you lose, but those to give you hope that may be st. i want more tire on lots. are we? yeah. yeah. so you find that it, somebody a will press a bit and lose, and then the net is it a friend wizard? if the when no, so to maybe next tire, it will be me more so government phrase will feel minute is a game of that. okay. even if you lose this them don't lose look, look at your friends. they have tried, they have, well, it will be next day. so these gum in governance ignore that g, a our african landscape largely young population and the n put racial. we love things. so we're bringing so also to marketing to make you not to leave it in the
5:53 pm
us, even if you're on your for you see that you are losing but will not, it was don't bring you something that is going to make him stay, give you hope that maybe next there, if you'd say you to be you, but i'm gonna just be up front her, we know that gambling is enticing, the idea is, are you keep going back, you keep going back. and so it's, it's often framed as an leisure activity, not a banking or employment activity. maybe it's on us as citizens to truly truly understand that i have to play a bet king at which sums up this idea of responsible gambling. and then now thank you. come off the back with your immediate reactions. let's have a look. ah
5:54 pm
ah, ah. 3 blue kings. okay. oh, thanks for that i think that's, that's a very interesting advertisement. but what i see, what i don't i used to. i'm usually again, if it comes to our such advertisements regarding advertisement, if they shouldn't entice, they shouldn't be put in a way that it are. it like should got courts orita it and taste. it's maybe because i'm not what i like. these are kid. we'd have find it very, very interesting. and what that kid is looking at is actually gambling. and i don't
5:55 pm
know if they just seat in there, but let me know what the government yesterday we we, i me focusing on it. and i'm actually suggesting that they don't treat her, but i mean, when i go to collection, i did that, did he ever so we, we, if the i normally conditions that stops this behavior, then obviously i'm can be a playing field. so i think to call, why is that a relation? it all he does governments take responsibility and put product issues in place to protect the public? but then i think i, i think this is a good, a lot good on marketing tactic, which is very, very, i can say morally, my site because it's not honest. any advertisement should be honest. and it should be, it purporting it should be selling whatever. it's not wanting to sell,
5:56 pm
not quoted under anything else i think got dizzy on so jessica has let me ask, you know what, they did not feel, explain it to you. and i just wanting to touch base because i believe your organization and my organization. we actually are working on making so that we can make a test takes we actually engage with the operators. you know, i'm missing and i think should be conveyed to the public. sit on it means i don't blame it. let me just add, just in case i forgot that you are funded by the betting and gambling organizations in south africa. that is part of the regulation process to you are funded by an organizations who actually profit from people gambling. i think that's really important to understanding that's quite a difficult, tight road for you to walk. genius quickly. you are probably going to be the last
5:57 pm
word in this conversation guide. yeah, yeah. i have a question. did i have a question to you talk about a government, a granting, advertising. how effective is that in your country? because you see we might have a regulation on advertising. but dissembling racial, you'll find that you'll say i don't, this is should not be accepted by people under the age of 18, but you find that in the cell be blended edgy. did i still participating in a gum? how is distraction in yoga was it might be a big, misty issue that i had to pay. i mean by that, by then by the open it as they open it because i don't believe we are wearing a now one minute i show. so i know that the conversation was for spelling to an end
5:58 pm
. now sentence from these to pump. i go ahead i'm yeah, i want to get a key in terms of i think. ringback in my case, it should not be clearly they do marketing, but it's not a subtle i i hear and the last sentence for you genius, a sentence, go ahead. well gum green is a big ac bed, a company called bricks industry, and we need to get his approach to address the problems that are coming with numbering industry. i lost phone short sentence when you nelson. all right? minus 2 odds day. you too. yes. enjoy life have fun, but at the same time duties pointedly retreated south consequences. so stay informed. they are volatile in spain. good. thank you. thank you jeff. thank you. yes, thank you. we'll choose an ox power news
5:59 pm
. news. news. news. ah ah, i know the very beautiful country surrounded by water,
6:00 pm
we are in south america, but close. surely. we are linked to the caribbean. we were colonized by the british . in 966, we became independent nineties. we start to see researches of its level, especially among or 4 brothers and sisters in the population. just about 12 percent deposit. it was more family oriented. now, there is more activity regarding and more information being committed to the mode from a, by the boss thing via social media feed. i don't know whether i think it's coming from the, from our, our interpretation of the do one that promote peaceful coexistence, religious tolerance and respect for everyone.
