***T2bet Revolutionizes Online Betting with Innovative Platform
Honorable member representing the Idemili North/Idemili South Federal constituency of Anambra State, Uchenna Harris Okonkwo has expressed his belief that indigenous online betting platforms like T2Bet can significantly contribute to Nigeria’s economy by attracting foreign exchange and creating job opportunities.
Speaking at the launch of T2Bet, a new gaming platform over the weekend, Hon. Okonkwo highlighted the potential of such platforms to bringing economic value to the country while empowering the youth.
“Platforms like T2Bet have the capacity to bring in foreign exchange by drawing participation not just from Nigerians but from international users,” said Okonkwo, who is also a member of the Intergovernmental Affairs Committee in the House of Representatives.
He pointed out that as more users engage in the platform globally, foreign currencies such as the U.S. dollar, Euro, and Pound Sterling could flow into Nigeria, helping to strengthen the nation’s economy.
The lawmaker emphasized the importance of developing homegrown platforms that can compete on a global stage, stating, “Nigeria is taking an inward-to-outward approach—meaning that what we create here can reach the world. T2Bet is a prime example of this.”
Okonkwo also stressed the job creation potential of such platforms.
“The multiplier effect of a platform like T2Bet cannot be overstated. Beyond the direct jobs created within the company, there are numerous opportunities for local businesses that support its operations, from IT and payment gateway providers to marketing and customer service teams,” he noted.
He added that the gaming industry is not just about gaming or betting, but also about creating a broader ecosystem of professionals, from developers to regulatory experts, who contribute to the platform’s success. Okonkwo urged young Nigerians to take advantage of these opportunities, saying, “There’s room for growth not just in gaming but in all the ancillary services that support platforms like this.”
The lawmaker concluded by reaffirming his commitment to pushing for a regulatory framework that supports indigenous businesses in the gaming sector. He pledged to work with relevant government agencies to ensure that such platforms are not only compliant with regulations but also receive the necessary backing to thrive both locally and globally.
“Platforms like T2Bet are a path forward for Nigeria’s digital economy. With the right regulatory support and compliance, we can harness this potential to boost foreign exchange, create jobs, and uplift the youth,” Okonkwo Said.
