20%? Is this even real ? Most of the companies not related to gambling pay lower than 10% but not the same in Kenya when it comes to the sports gambling. Now the biggest football clubs have joined hands to oppose this rule.
It's such a bad time to implement it but you can't blamer a government that wants to have money coming in times of pandemic, but one of their reasons to prohibit people from gambling is a bad one, if they don't want people to gamble in their country they should ban gambling, they really want to justify their additional taxes to these gambling companies, which is also suffering from this pandemic.
After all, the government should make other policies in this pandemic era regarding tax payments, in my country tax payments can be delayed during this pandemic and of course this policy is very good for the people's economy. At least there are loosened rules regarding taxes during the pandemic because after all, the government cannot only rely on income from taxes because there are still many from other sectors that can at least be income.
