When bookies emerged in Kenya, most people took it as a life-saver and used all their fortunes blindly without thinking about the possibility of losing, which was daft because lottery is pegged on luck.

As a result, a number of suicides were reported, some losers fell seriously ill while others simply lost their minds after life savings,  house rents, school fees and bank loans went down the drain.
