BetKing CEO Ukanwoke Calls for Trust, Innovation, and Standards in Nigeria's iGaming Sector

Gossy Ukanwoke, leading figure in Nigeria's iGaming sector and CEO of BetKing, recently shared insights at the Enugu Gaming Conference 2025. He emphasized the importance of trust, innovation, and standardized rules for the industry's growth.

Ukanwoke, also Managing Director of Kingmakers, believes regulation should aim to reduce friction for operators and foster synergy between regulators and operators. He advocates for standardized rules to simplify compliance and reporting across jurisdictions.

BetKing, under his leadership, prioritizes trust as its foundation. The company ensures safe wagers and guaranteed winnings for customers through responsible gambling frameworks. These include affordability checks and partnerships with support services like Gamble Alert. BetKing's commitment to trust also extends to its corporate social responsibility initiatives, focusing on sports, healthcare, and community education.

Ukanwoke sees 'trust and innovation' as crucial for long-term growth in the iGaming sector. He highlighted BetKing's dedication to these principles, stating they are the key to the company's success. Although he discussed the need for standards to promote transparency and sustainability, he did not announce a new organization to introduce these standards specifically for Nigeria's iGaming sector.
