Local focus, not a translated template
This guide is written for Kenya, not for an "average" country. It names M-Pesa & Airtel Money because those are the rails players actually use here. It mentions football (Kenyan Premier League) and Kenyan Premier League because those are what Kenyan bettors follow. And it states the regulatory position in Kenya honestly rather than repeating generic "it's legal" claims.
