Lagos gaming authority says Nigeria has no remote gaming licences
The Lagos State Lotteries and Gaming Authority said Nigeria has no available remote gaming licences and that online gaming licensing falls under state regulators. It said the former National Lottery Regulatory Commission cannot issue such licences and urged operators to regularise their operations with the appropriate state authorities, warning of possible enforcement action against non-compliant businesses.
Operators claiming remote gaming licences may need to seek authorisation from the relevant state regulator to avoid enforcement action.
