Anthony, who said that the operation began on Thursday, listed the offices closed down as five offices of bet9ja and King Bet respectively, two Access Bet offices, and one office of Derby Lotto,
He said that about 1,500 gaming offices across the state are operating illegally without due registration and license.
The head of the gaming agency stated that the exercise will continue until all the illegal gaming offices are shut down.

“We will continue to go after them until all the operators of the gaming companies regularized their operations and obtain the needed license to operate in the state,” he said.

The Executive Chairman of the agency, Dr. Zaid Abubakar, had told newsmen that apart from operating illegally, the gaming companies were mopping about N2.0 billion monthly from the state and were not paying a kobo to the state government as tax.
