1xBet will support African talents through the NXT Honors award

Global betting company 1xBet has sponsored the NXT Honors award for the second year in a row, celebrating the achievements of outstanding Africans and inspiring new generations. The winners will be officially announced live on January 31.

As the main sponsor, 1xBet shows its commitment to supporting sports, culture, and creativity on the continent. The brand has moved beyond betting and plays an important role in African society.

The company is actively involved in all aspects of the NXT Honors award, from branding to offering exclusive prizes. One of its key initiatives is a special category, 1xBet’s Athlete of the Year.

The final shortlist includes 9 outstanding individuals who achieved great success over the past year:

• Letsile Tebogo: A track and field athlete from Botswana who became the Olympic champion in the 200-meter race and a world champion in relays.
• Asisat Oshoala: An outstanding footballer who plays at the highest level and is the captain of the Nigeria national team.
• Victor Boniface: A Nigerian footballer who won all major club trophies in Germany with Bayer.
• David De Pina: A boxer from Cape Verde who won a bronze medal at the Paris Olympics.
• William Troost-Ekong: The captain of the Nigeria national football team, recognized as the best player of the Africa Cup of Nations.
• Fares Ferjani: A Tunisian fencer who won a silver medal at the Summer Olympics.
• Tatjana Smith: A South African swimmer who earned 2 medals at the Paris Olympics.
• Joshua Cheptegei: A Ugandan track and field athlete who won gold in long-distance running at the Summer Olympics.
• Ademola Lookman: A Nigerian footballer shortlisted for the Ballon d’Or.

1xBet experts created a list of candidates from various sports, highlighting the wealth and diversity of African athletic talents. It’s especially exciting to see women’s names on the shortlist, which reflects the growing role of women in sports and their undeniable achievements on the global stage. Another great example of this is Suo Chapele, Nigeria’s first female sports commentator, who is also a 1xBet ambassador.

The company is also sponsoring the Breakthrough of the Year category, with the winner featured on the cover of the February issue of Top Charts Africa magazine. Players haven’t been overlooked either: 1xBet will award a prize of 100,000 NGN to the most active follower on its social media, who uses the official event hashtag.

Supporting talented individuals is one of the priorities of 1xBet in Africa. The company is always open to new partnerships with talents from various fields. For example, the brand collaborates with musician Davido, one of the candidates for the Best African Artiste award.

The partnership between 1xBet and NXT Honors is a great example of how two companies with similar values can make a significant impact on the development of African creativity, sports, and digital content.

1xBet is excited to be part of this event and looks forward to the announcement of the winners who celebrate the African continent.
