Sports Betting has exploded across Africa. But are the betting companies playing it straight? Do the punters really understand the odds they’re up against? And who is getting rich from the thrill of the beautiful game?
BBC Africa Eye follows one young football fan on a journey across Uganda, to find out what happens when global companies target some of the poorest and most vulnerable people on the continent.
Collins Muhinda has been betting on football since he was a kid – but on this journey, he discovers an industry that can have a devastating impact on the lives of young Africans, and an epidemic of compulsive gambling that makes him question his own betting habits.

BBC News Africa is much better then the other BBC lol Im hooked on it now. This episode was very powerful.
A good business practice is that if an investment is not guaranteeing good returns over a reasonable period of time you change or quit. But an addict in betting loses but desires to bet a lot more, that is the sign that one is truly hooked to betting as truly as one hooked to hard drugs
21:05 is so meme-worthy. 😅
Betting your entire school fees?? Damnnn, that's insane.

We Africans we need to wake up,…we're in dark side of the bet😭
We have a similar problem in Ghana.
This is destroying our youth future. We need to teach youth responsibility.
We should ban sports betting like Brazil and other smart countries.
I've always viewed gambling with suspicion. The best doccie I have watched this week and Collins is brilliant. I hope he's doing great wherever he is
Aye! BBC News Africa, can you pleaseeeee allow the cc captions, you know we sometime can't understand what is being said. I don't understand why you would disable that.
