We launched FanBants with a clear mission: to be the ultimate fan engagement platform for Africans worldwide. Today, we achieve this by offering fun and simplified fantasy gaming experiences tailored to Africa’s passionate fans. While we've mainly focused on leagues like the EPL and other foreign competitions so far, we're excited to take a significant step forward. We are excited to introduce the first-ever fantasy football experience for fans of the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL). This marks a historic moment where NPFL fans can now play fantasy with their own local teams, competing for fun, bragging rights, and exciting prizes. A big shoutout to Sporting Lagos (an innovative club that is at the forefront of elevating the NPFL fan experience) who partnered with us on the launch and in engaging their passionate fan community. We are particularly excited not only because of the opportunity to collaborate with a top club such as Sporting Lagos, but also because of the opportunity to contribute to the growth of the sports ecosystem in Nigeria. With the further addition of fantasy football for the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations on FanBants, we continue to elevate fan engagement in Nigeria even further. We would like to partner with the Confederation of African Football to elevate fan engagement in Africa. So this is a shameless plug to please feel free to connect us to any of the CAF execs. #NPFLFantasy #FootballInNigeria #AFCONFantasy #FanBants #BeMoreThanAFan
