BetKing rewards customers with unforgettable AFCON 2025 trip

For most football fans, AFCON is followed from living rooms, roadside viewing centres, or packed sports bars where every goal triggers celebration or disappointment. 

However, for a few Nigerians in 2025, AFCON went beyond viewing; they were part of the experience.

When BetKing launched the “Feel It First in Morocco” campaign, it set out to turn everyday football passion into a once-in-a-lifetime experience. And when the final whistle blew in Morocco, that promise had been fully fulfilled.

It all started with a simple ₦5,000 bet the kind millions of Nigerians place every week. For Babatunde Taofeek and Isaac Otuechere, that small moment opened the door to an unforgettable journey. Days later, they were selected among loyal customers and business partners to travel to Morocco, host of AFCON 2025. For some, it was their first time outside Nigeria. For all, it was their first time witnessing Africa’s biggest football tournament live.

Morocco welcomed them with colour, culture, and an energy that words struggle to capture. Inside the stadium, African voices blended into one, Senegalese chants, Moroccan drums, and Nigerian cheers echoing under the floodlights. On the pitch, history unfolded as Senegal defeated host nation Morocco to lift the AFCON 2025 trophy, a moment that belonged not just to one country, but to the entire continent.

“Watching on TV is one thing,” Babatunde Taofeek said, “but being in the stadium, feeling the crowd, and seeing history happen right in front of you was emotional. I will never forget it.”

For Isaac Otuechere, the experience went far beyond football. “This was my first time traveling outside Nigeria. From the flight to the stadium atmosphere, everything felt unreal. BetKing didn’t just give us tickets they gave us memories.”

When the stadium lights finally dimmed and the crowds dispersed, the winners returned home with more than souvenirs. They carried memories of chants, goals, penalties, heartbreak, triumph, and a night when Africa stood still. From a simple ₦5,000 bet to the biggest football stage on the continent that is what it truly means to Feel It First.
