The Lagos State Lotteries and Gaming Authority (LSLGA) has noticed misleading online publications claiming that the Lagos Lottery Board Authority has blacklisted several betting operators in Nigeria. These claims, which have appeared on websites such as e-playafrica.com, telecomasia.net, and africangambit.com, are not only inaccurate but also potentially harmful.

LSLGA firmly distances itself from these reports and emphasizes that the information they contain does not accurately represent the Authority’s regulatory position. The so-called “blacklist” circulating is outdated, and many operators listed have since regularized their status and are now fully licensed to operate in Lagos State.

For clarity, the official and up-to-date list of licensed operators can be found on the LSLGA website at:
👉 Licensed Operators

Additionally, the list of operators identified as illegal or unlicensed is available at:
👉 Illegal Operators

We urge the public, stakeholders, and industry players to disregard unverified information from unofficial sources and to rely solely on the Authority’s official communication channels for accurate updates.

The LSLGA remains committed to maintaining the integrity of the Lagos gaming environment, ensuring compliance among operators, and protecting the interests of the public.
