I placed my first bet in my life on the first day of the Premier League in the game of Man City against Chelsea.
Before making this ‘drastic’ move, my friend had convinced me to stake anything I had on Chelsea to win, I said no. However, one day to the game, I got a strange dream and I think it was a devil! It told me to sell anything that would give me money in order to stake on that game. I woke up and called someone who had been pleading to buy my car, he was ready with Shs13 million.
I rushed to my friend who was convincing me and told him that I have sold my car and I have the money. Since I didn’t know anything to do with betting, he staked all the money online using his Fortebet account. He told me, “you are going to win Shs37 million.” I was super excited but 30 minutes to the game, I started shivering, my body temperature changed, I felt so weak. I turned my radio to listen to the commentary but the commentators almost gave me a heart attack. I switched off the radio and tried sleeping but I couldn’t, I switched on the radio again and Man City had gotten a goal already.
At that moment, even if someone wanted to cut me, I wouldn’t have felt anything because my body froze and my hair was standing. I felt like someone was hitting big drums inside my ears.
The game ended 2-0 to Man City and I felt it was the end of my life and the guy who lured me into this switched off his phone and even backlisted my number.
For close to a week, I cried for financial help, I even felt like ending my life my but when I looked at my child’s smile, it gave me hope.
Luckily, my story went online before even the game was played because this guy spread the news all over my center and my colleagues at work started laughing at me calling me a naïve person, indeed I felt like an immature ‘he goat’.
So, when my story went viral on the internet, I started getting calls and support. I was even called at one of the local radio stations but it felt like they wanted to make me a laughing matter, I switched off.
I received a call from Uganda Bettors Association and they sent me Shs500,000 as a relief. A few days later, they called me again and told me, the only way to recover my money was through betting, I told them I never wanted to hear anything to do with betting again in my life. They insisted and told me that they were putting me on a fixed games to help me recover my money.
After a long period of hesitation, I gave in, I called them to confirm my participation.
They told me to wait until the next day when they have the fixed games, they called me the following day, directed me on what’s needed and after going through all that, I successfully created an account and deposited the money.
They later sent the teams which I played, the following day, they called me congratulating me for the win, when I checked, my account was showing money! I was super excited and that was my breakthrough.
Since then I have become someone, I never imagined that I would be, I am now a big man.
Uganda Bettors Association has helped me a lot. I want to thank everyone at UBA for making me who I am today!
I recommend everyone struggling to live a life through betting to get to Uganda Bettors Association, they are the best and they will help you make money while staying at home.
