Crackdown on illegal gambling machines in Masaka

The National Lotteries and Gaming Regulatory Board has launched a major crackdown, confiscating unlicensed gambling machines in Masaka City’s Kyabakuza and Kijjabwemi areas. The operation, dubbed “Operation Machine Haram,” targets unauthorized operators whose activities have reportedly caused widespread disruption in homes, with many residents, especially men, neglecting family responsibilities due to gambling.
