Henry Okafor

Henry Okafor has nearly 10 years of combined experience in sports analytics and betting markets. He started his career as a data researcher with a regulated sportsbook operator in East Africa where he transitioned to independent market research and consulting for the industry. His background is in statistics and sports science with a strong emphasis on quantitative skills which inform all of his analytical work.

Henry’s experience has included involvement with monitoring odds, researching line movement, and studying market efficiency in Africa’s football leagues, European competitions, and basketball markets. He has provided consulting services to licensed operators regarding responsible gambling content standards and has also contributed to reviewing platforms to ensure that they meet standards of transparency and compliance with regulations. Over the course of his career Henry has tested and evaluated over 50 licensed betting platforms in many jurisdictions first hand. Henry’s areas of specialisation include identifying structural inefficiencies in domestic football leagues – particularly in East and West Africa – as well as providing detailed coverage of bankroll management systems, Asian handicap betting mechanics, and in-play betting strategies. Each topic is approached with the same discipline as he applies to the markets themselves – methodical and evidence-based, with an absence of baseless prediction claims.
