The African Igaming Alliance (AiA) has announced the appointment of Peter Emolemo Kesitilwe as inaugural Chief Executive of the trade and standards body, established with a commitment to advance ethical, sustainable, and inclusive growth of Africa’s online gambling sector.

The former CEO of the Botswana Gambling Authority (BGA), Kesitilwe oversaw the regulatory development and licensing regime of the Southern African state, by enacting reforms to the Betting and Lotteries Act.

Establishing its charter, the AIA seeks for professionals from African regulators, operators and wider business services (law and IT) to join its ranks with a view to promote ethical and fair gaming and sustainable policies across Africa’s multi-billion igaming sector.
