In a recent public announcement, the National Lotteries and Gaming Regulatory Board (NLGRB) of Uganda has issued a warning to potential gamers about Mega Pari, a gaming operator that has been operating without a license in the country. This notice serves as a caution to all gaming enthusiasts to steer clear of Mega Pari’s offerings until they obtain the necessary legal approvals.
The NLGRB is the governing body responsible for overseeing and regulating all gaming activities in Uganda. It ensures that operators comply with the legal standards set to protect players and promote responsible gaming. The board’s primary focus is to prevent fraudulent activities in the gaming sector, which can include operators running without a license, potentially compromising the safety and security of players.
Mega Pari’s lack of a license raises significant concerns about the security of players’ funds and the games’ fairness. Without oversight from the NLGRB, there’s no guarantee that Mega Pari adheres to the ethical standards and regulations required by law, which includes ensuring that games are fair, that advertising is truthful, and that players’ funds are securely managed.
To assist players and the public in identifying legitimate operators, the NLGRB has provided a link to the official list of all licensed gaming entities. This crucial resource helps ensure that individuals interact only with approved and compliant operators. You can view and verify the list of licensed operators for 2024 here.
