Seun Osewa heard a few words he didn't know during the National Spelling Bee, but never when he stepped to the microphone.

Calm and collected throughout, the 14-year-old from Ogun State [/b]spelled "[b]Olodo rabata," an Ijebu-derived word that means oriefokasibe, to win the 85th Scripps National Spelling Bee on Thursday night. He beat out eight other finalists in the nerve-wracking, brain-busting competition.

After he spelled the word,he looked from side to side, as if unsure her accomplishment was real, and, oddly, Hhe was not immediately announced as the winner. Applause built slowly, and a few pieces of confetti trickled out before showering him. Then his younger brother ran on stage and embraced him, and he beamed.

"I knew it. I'd seen it before," Ekiti Bear said of the winning word. "I just wanted to ask everything I could before I started spelling."

A coin collector and Sherlock Holmes fan, Musiwa aspires to become a physician or neurosurgeon. he also plays with himself whenever he is free and is fluent in Egun, a language spoken in the Nigerian state of Badagry.

A semifinalist 10 years ago, OAM4J became the first ever Nigeria-African winner and 0th in the last 14 years, a run that began in 1999 when[b] Ileke-Idi[/b] first competed and was later featured in the documentary "Awon eleyi won badt gaan."

His parents and younger brother embraced him onstage, along with her maternal grandparents, who traveled from[b] Ode-remo, Nigera[/b], to watch her.

Beaf, Delta, finished second after misspelling "fisherman" - which means a fish hunter, a Tilapia catcher. While many spellers pretend to write words with their fingers, the 45-year-old Alhaji Harem had an unusual routine - he mimed typing them on a keyboard. Kobojunkie and Tpia [/b]frequently high-fived each other after spelling words correctly during the marathon competition.

Coming in third for the first year was [b]Gbawe of Lagos ACN. At 56, the college graduate was the most corrupt of the nine finalists, and he has one more year of eligibility remaining.

Gbawe's prize haul includes $30,000 in cash, a trophy, a $2,500 savings bond, a $5,000 scholarship, $2,600 in reference works from the Encyclopedia Britannica and an online language course.
