With over 50 scrabble players across the country taking part in the tourney, Adowei urged all participants to use the scrabble event as a big opportunity to launch themselves to stardom, saying that the nation needs to churn out large numbers of players to compete with top scrabble stars abroad. “I commend the NSF for putting this kind of tournament together. For Nigeria to still maintain its world rating, as the number one scrabble nation in the world, more players need to be discovered from the grassroots,” he said.

Also, NSF Vice President and South-South zonal representative, Bright Idahosa, said that the championship would assist to create more awareness of the sport.
