Saidu Ayorinde of Nigeria on Sunday emerged the 13th Africa Scrabble Champion winning 23 games of 32 in Tema, Ghana. Ayorinde dethroned another Nigerian, Nsikakabasi Etim, the immediate past Scrabble Champion in Africa, when he finished first in a 32-game scrabble marathon to become the best in the duel. As the new No.1 in Africa, yorinde has been ranked 16th at the 2015 World Scrabble championship. Some Nigerians, Eta Karo, Umebiye Cyril, Nsikakabasi Etim and Rex Ogbakpa emerged in the second, third, fourth and fifth positions respectively. A Kenyan, Gitonga Nberitou, broke Nigerian line up to take the sixth position. Other Nigerians in the listing are: Ogbogu Azubuike, seventh; Dennis Ikekeregor, eight; and Anthony Ikolo, the National Scrabble Coach of the Senior Team, ninth. John Curtis Ebomah came tenth. Nigeria won nine of the ten positions in the championship and consolidated its position as the best team of the championship since nine of its representatives finished in top positions. Mr. Ikolo told NAN in an interview that the victory was due to hard work and dedication. “It is a testimony to the potential of Nigerians and the sacrifice and hard work of the players.” http://www.certifiednaija.com/2016/12/meet-saidu-ayorinde-nigeria-new-no1.html?m=1 7 Likes 3 Shares

He did this in some gut wrenching manner . Playing some terrific words along BiLINGUAl was a beautiful find through double Ls. Ayo had to wait for Nderitu Kitonga, Kenyan, to hand him the win. He played a nonword GUTCHES which Ayo challenged off the board. Nigerians on social media went berserk when the favour was done to us. Memes and wisecracks followed the episode and a huge relieve to everyone . TERAGLIN, x9, was the icing on a beautiful weekend of pure Scrabble genius. Ayo came 3rd earlier in the month in Causeway Challenge in Malaysia. This is the toughest competition on earth. Nigeria was the over best performing Nation in the same competition. Stand up for SCRABBLE. 18 Likes 1 Share |
