Destiny Etiko loses N5m on World Cup Final bet

Actress Destiny Etiko has vowed never to be so invested in professional football again after losing a N5 million bet on the 2026 FIFA World Cup final between Spain and Argentina.
Etiko disclosed this in an Instagram post on Sunday night, shortly after the match concluded in Spain’s favour.
“First time betting and I lost. Will never try it again. My N5 million is gone. In fact, I’m done watching football. Anxiety almost ki**ed me,” she wrote.
