– –<\/span> A young Ghanaian youth has given a rather eye-popping account of how sports betting, a habit that is discouraged among the youth, helped them to survive. In a narration to popular social media influencer, Abena Manokekame, the subject of the story indicated that they lost their mother in 2019 as a single child.<\/p>\n According to the narrator, survival would have been difficult but for the decision to take a betting slip of GH\u20b510, which yielded about GH\u20b515k and served the purpose of funding part of the late parent\u2019s funeral and helping to survive.<\/p>\n \u201cSo in 2019, I lost my mom and as an only child, there was a bit of a burden on me to raise money for the funeral arrangements. I\u2019m not the type that easily asks for help so I took a chance and placed a bet with 10ghc & won a little over 15k. I\u2019ve won close to 50k in total since I started betting, it\u2019s all about being able to control yourself and not get greedy, I do not stake above 100ghc no matter what!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n – –<\/span> – – A young Ghanaian youth has given a rather eye-popping account of how sports betting, a habit that is discouraged among the youth, helped them to survive.
