Nigeria’s first national free gambling harm support line has launched in collaboration with the recently launched African Responsible Gaming Network (ARGN).
The launch gives players access to information for help with their gambling and marks the start of the ARGN’s Nigeria Chapter.
The ARGN launched in September with a continent-wide focus on player protection, seeking to unify previously individual efforts on this front.
The launch of the helpline forms part of the ARGN’s November Africa Safer Gaming Month campaign, It Starts With You, which looks at child protection and the continent’s “collective responsibility to safeguard vulnerable communities across Nigeria and Africa.”
