An apprentice in Alaba Market, Lagos hit it big as he won a sports bet of N16 million.
According to @oku_yungx who shared the story on Twitter, the lad’s master requested that he is given half of the total winning.
The tweep said things ended in the favor of the boss as market people prevailed upon the young man to do it. “So this boy who is currently undergoing his Apprenticeship with oga at Alaba market won 16 million naira on BET and his boss requested he shared the money into 2. Meaning his boss goes with 8million.
Hear the market people supported his boss so he had to oblige.” Mixed reactions have trailed how the matter was settled.
