A 16-year old boy has cried out for help as he loses his school fees to popular betting platform Sportybet.

The boy identified as @benjaminjustice39 on TikTok made a video on the video sharing app informing Nigerians about his predicament and asking the betting platform to kindly refund his money.

He shared a screenshot of the message he sent to Sportybet, requesting for a refund but the platform replied to him saying betting is strictly prohibited for those under age 18. Hence, his money cannot be refunded.

He sent a reply to Sportybet, appealing to get the sum of N30,000 back, saying he is just 16 years old.


This video triggered diverse responses on the video sharing app and caused many to laugh at the young boy's situation.
