South Sudan: Evidentia AI Completes South Sudan Pilot with the Department of Betting, Gaming and Lotteries, Advancing Transparent and Accountable Gaming Oversight Across Africa

Evidentia AI has wrapped up a four-week pilot in South Sudan, presenting its findings directly to the Department of Betting, Gaming and Lotteries at the Ministry of Finance and Planning. The work was commissioned to give the Department its own independent, evidence-based picture of the country's betting market, free from reliance on operator-supplied data.

What makes the pilot notable is how it was done. Evidentia AI completed the full market review without any system integration, verifying every observation against live sources. That approach means the findings carry a credibility that is hard to dispute, because nothing was filtered through the operators themselves.

For a gaming regulatory body still building its infrastructure, that kind of external, technology-driven audit can be a practical first step toward stronger oversight. South Sudan's Department of Betting, Gaming and Lotteries now has a working model it can point to as a proof of concept, and the question is what comes next.
