Young Ghanaians, many of whom participate in gambling, have harshly criticized the new fee on social media.

Throughout the past ten years, Ghana’s betting sector has experienced phenomenal expansion, which has encouraged numerous bookmakers to establish operations there.

Ghanaians’ opinions on sports betting have recently frequently been mixed, with some emphasising its negative impacts on the youth.
