Sports are the most popular form of entertainment today – especially soccer, the sport that has billions of fans all over the globe. Millions of sports fans boost the excitement of following their favorite events by placing a bet on them. Most of them are only occasional bettors with no intention of making a lot of money off their bets.
But if you’re already placing a bet, why not make it a successful one? Placing a bet is fun – winning a bet is, in turn, much more satisfying. And these tricks will help you enjoy your favorite team’s victory even more.
Choose the right bookmaker
First and foremost, you need to choose the right place to bet – a reputable bookmaker with a great track record. The simplest way would be to download the Betway app on your phone. It’s simple and easy to use, and it covers pretty much every important sporting event from all over the globe.
While betting is regulated in most countries, there are still operators that are not very honest. With a major brand like Betway, you’ll most likely have a great experience while you won’t have to focus on anything but the sport you love.
Understand the odds
In a soccer match, there is always a favorite and an underdog. The favorite is the team more likely to win. The winnings associated with betting on the favorite are smaller – but the bet is also safer, more likely to be successful.
In a match between the Taifa Stars and the Harambee Stars, betting on the latter is probably the safest choice. Unless, of course, you want to bet with your heart.
How much should you bet on a match?
When it comes to betting, and games of chance in general, the most important rule is that you should never wager more money than you can afford to lose! While some bets are safer than others, there is no bet that is 100% safe – losing it is always an option you have to take into account.
Your bankroll is the total amount you have available for betting – the rule of thumb is that you shouldn’t spend more than 5% of your bankroll on a single bet. So, if you have a bankroll of KES10,000, for example, betting 500 on a single slip is a rather good choice.
The most important part
If you choose to bet on sports, make sure you enjoy it. Unless you are a professional bettor who is in it for the money to be made, try to bet on events you’ll follow or which are of interest to you. Betting has a way of adding that small extra edge to the experience – especially when you win.

Mathematics is reinstated as a required course by Education CS Julius Ogamba.
Julius Ogamba, the Cabinet Secretary for Education, has ordered that mathematics be reintroduced in some form as a required course in senior high schools.
Ogamba announced at the National Conversation on the Competency-Based Curriculum on Thursday that the ministry has taken the concerns of the stakeholders into consideration and decided that some form of mathematics should be required in all pathways.
“Most of the stakeholders in the CBC dialogue believed that mathematics should be required in high school. We have taken your worries into consideration, sought advice from the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD), and decided that some form of mathematics be required for the two non-STEM pathways,” Ogamba said.
With this new direction, students who selected the STEM route will study pure mathematics, while the other two routes will cover a less complicated version of the subject, according to the CS.
The CS said that in senior school, we will have maths in all three pathways by having the STEM pathway include pure math and the other two pathways include a form of mathematics.
The ministry had instructed that, in contrast to the 8-4-4 curriculum, where mathematics was a required subject, senior school students now had the option of choosing their courses in mathematics.
The ministry divided the pathways into three categories: Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), Social Sciences, and Arts and Sports Science. Students who selected the first two pathways had the option of skipping mathematics.
But Ogamba has changed his mind and ordered that there be some kind of math course for both of these routes.
Following the developments, there were heated discussions among Kenyans and key players who claimed that the decision was not wise and that it presented difficulties that may have an impact on the economic viability and labor force of the country. This led him to attempt to reverse the action.
In an effort to improve the CBC curriculum, which has come under fire, the Ministry has taken Kenyans’ and stakeholders’ views seriously, the CS has said.
Ogamba said, “It is a crucial element that we have heard the opinions of the Kenyans, and it is a significant contribution from the stakeholders that demonstrates the value of stakeholder dialogue.”
This new action has received Ogamba’s request for backing from Kenyans and the stakeholders.
The transition to the CBC in Kenya is now being actively addressed by the CS and Principal Secretary Julius Bitok. Their primary goal is to address issues such as teacher readiness, school infrastructure, and public concerns about the implementation of the CBC while also ensuring the quality of education.
The Teachers Service Commission, TSC, shall conduct a two day seminar for Curriculum Support Officers,CSOs, in October. Download this pdf document for further details:

Education Cabinet Secretary Professor George Magoha, Dr Fred Matiang’i (Interior and National Coordination of Government) and Joe Mucheru (ICT), and the Teachers Service Commission Secretary Dr Nancy Macharia held a lengthy meeting on Thursday 28th March, 2019, to highlight key issues on matters education. The meeting that was held at the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development, KICD, saw them deliberate on such key issues as: implementation of the new curriculum, administration of National examinations, school land titles and the 100 percent transition policy.
After the meeting, Professor Magoha gave a detailed highlight touching on their deliberations; as presented in his presser, herein:
THE PRESSER BY PROFESSOR GEORGE MAGOHA;
“MULTI-SECTORAL APPROACH TO THE MANAGEMENT OF THE EDUCATION SECTOR
First and foremost, I wish to thank most profusely His Excellency the President, Uhuru Kenyatta, for finding it fit to appoint me to the Ministry of Education. With all humility, I promise to do everything within my powers to deliver on all his education programmes. I shall not let him down.
Secondly, I wish to appreciate my Cabinet colleagues Dr Fred Matiang’i (Interior and National Coordination of Government) and Joe Mucheru (ICT), the Teachers Service Commission Secretary Dr Nancy Macharia for finding time and accepting to join me in this first consultative meeting. I also must thank the CSs for allowing their principal secretaries to also attend this meeting, one of its kind in the education sector. There couldn’t have been a better way to start off my new life as Cabinet Secretary for Education.
DELIVERING AS ONE
The meeting today is extremely significant not only to the officials present here but indeed to the whole Government and the country’s millions of children who look up to us to shape the future lives.
The decision to hold this meeting was borne out of the Government’s firm believe that we can only deliver as one. I am, therefore, announcing today during my first full day in office, that I have opened up the education sector to a joint but coordinated style of management where all relevant ministries and departments must work in consort with one another to effectively deliver quality education. We shall not have room for territorial wars within departments and ministries that only stand to hurt the government’s broad agenda on education. Consistent with this, we have today resolved to kickstart a more pronounced and robust multisectoral approach to education management with the Ministries of Interior and National Coordination, ICT and TSC taking the lead. We will keep roping in other state departments that, in other way or the other, play some role in the education sector in our determination to ensure that no relevant government department fails to contribute to the success of the education programme in this country. Further, we have resolved to have all the regional, county and subcounty officials from all the three ministries and TSC to form technical teams that will deliver education of our children. All the three CSs and their officers are free to visit schools at any time to check if government programmes are running as they must.
NEW CBC CURRICULUM
By next week, schools will close for the First Term having already run on the new Competency-Based Curriculum for One Term in PP1-PP2 and Grade 1-3. The State Department of Early Learning and Basic Education is filing a report based on the existing monitoring reports to give me the actual status of the activities of First Term. We will use the report to progress the implementation in Term Two with greater confidence. In the meantime, I wish to assure the country that the implementation of the new curriculum is firmly on track; we shall deliver. Any initial challenges will be addressed with great precision to ensure the education we deliver to our children meets global standards.
I can guarantee the country that the Ministry, together with relevant agencies, will work round the clock to ensure that a solid operational framework is in place by September to guide the activities of the new curriculum next year. Already, and as the TSC secretary will affirm, necessary training for teachers will be conducted next month and September to help keep our staff continuously prepared to deliver the CBC. All necessary reading and writing materials will also be consistently supplied to schools.
ADMINISTRATION OF NATIONAL EXAMINATIONS
The Multisectoral Team that met today has made a stronger resolve to step up the game in the administration of national examinations. We are not going, in any way, to drop the ball anywhere, any time. The high standards of administering national examinations, started during the regime of Dr Matiang’i at the Education ministry, will be stepped a notch higher this year. The combined efforts of the inter-ministerial team whose heads are assembled here today should send a strong warning to all examination cartels that they are under high levels of surveillance. With my elevation to the ministry, I even have a broader mandate to perfect the art of examinations administration jointly with my Cabinet colleagues and staff of the ministry.
Starting Second Term, we are going to spell out new measures of examination administration, including mounting a stronger examinations pre-monitoring exercise that will also assist us to address cases of indiscipline in schools. I will count on the Ministry of Interior and National Coordination to help us in beefing up security around schools during throughout the year.
I also wish to assure the country that the Government has stepped up efforts to provide birth certificates to KCPE and KCSE candidates. As a result, the number of KCPE candidates who were without birth certificates in February has reduced from 375,000 to 158,496 candidates. Only 11,107 KCSE candidates have not obtained the birth certificates. We are determined to stamp out cases of irregularities associated with the poor management of our national examinations so that the results obtained from the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) are valid and credible.
THE 100 PER CENT TRANSITION POLICY TO SECONDARY
The Multi-Sectoral Team has today been informed that the transition to secondary school for the 2018 KCPE candidates stands at 95.3 per cent. This is a historic achievement compared to the dismal standards we have achieved in previous years. We are now going to ensure that we account for the 4.7 per cent of the 2018 KCPE candidates to allow us to develop strategies to sustain the 100 per cent transition policy.
We must categorically say that the policy of admitting all KCPE candidates to secondary schools is a game changer in this country. It is the only way of offering all children the chance to gain education that can allow them to enter various career pathways. The Government is prepared to work round the clock to expand school infrastructure, provide enough textbooks and teachers to ensure high quality of learning and teaching.
SCHOOL LAND TITLES
Another fundamental issue that requires our urgent attention is the provision of land titles to public schools. In the recent years, we have been confronted with myriad of inquiries from public schools that sit on land they do not own. As you may be aware, various efforts have been initiated to handle this thorny issue, although they have not finalised the matter. I am therefore promising to harmonise all these efforts, together with the Ministry of Lands and National Land Commission, with a view to driving it to its logical conclusion.
We wish to call on all stakeholders to support the Government’s efforts that are meant to guarantee the credibility of the country’s education processes. More fundamentally, we thank all parents, Faith-Based organisations and other sector players for supporting our reforms in the education sector.”
Prof. George Magoha,
Cabinet Secretary, Ministry of Education
