Editorial policy
Every legal statement on this site is taken from the Gambling Control Act, 2025, its 2026 regulations or the regulator's own pages. Texts are drafted with AI tools and pass automated checks. There is no named human reviewer yet.
Sources that are accepted
A fact goes on a page only if it was read in a primary source on the access date printed in the page's source list. For this site that means:
- the Gambling Control Act, 2025 (No. 14 of 2025);
- the Gambling Control (Licensing), (Conduct of Gambling Operations) and (Advertising) Regulations, 2026;
- pages of the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Kenya, including its list of licensed gaming companies;
- other official bodies, such as Kenya Law or a revenue or data protection authority, where a page needs them.
News sites, forums, affiliate and review sites and encyclopaedias written by volunteers are not sources here. If a number cannot be confirmed in a primary source, the page gives the rule without the number.
Things that need no citation
Odds conversion, margin arithmetic and the standard way a market settles are general knowledge. They carry no source, but they must be right, and worked figures are marked "Illustrative example" so nobody mistakes them for real prices. Where a settlement point is a bookmaker convention and not law, the page says so and sends the reader to the licensee's published rules.
How texts are prepared and reviewed
Texts on Nairobi Football are prepared by the editorial team with AI tools and checked automatically against primary sources before they are published.
In practice that means the following. A draft is written with AI tools from the source texts. An automated check then tests each page for a source list, for length, for forbidden wording such as promises of winnings or calls to bet, for an age notice, and for text copied from elsewhere. A page that fails is not published.
No named person signs off individual articles at this stage, and the site does not claim otherwise. The byline "Nairobi Football Editorial" refers to this process. If a named reviewer is appointed, the name and role will be added here.
What is never published
- Predictions, tips or suggested bets.
- Rankings, ratings or reviews of bookmakers.
- Bonuses, promo codes or links to operators.
- Stories of winners, or any framing of betting as income.
- Claims about real clubs, players, fixtures or results.
- Claims about the site's own experience, staff or audience that cannot be shown to be true.
Dates and updates
Each guide shows the date it was last updated, and each source shows the date it was read. The regulator's list describes the 2025/26 trading period and is quoted with its access date. When a source changes, the page is corrected and re-dated under the process on the corrections page.
