PANASA President Adekoyejo Adegbesan has expressed confidence that Nigeria will successfully defend its title at the 16th African Scrabble Championship, which is currently being held in Liberia.
The federation leader’s statement comes despite the absence of several key players from the Nigerian squad, a factor that could potentially impact the team’s performance on the continent’s top stage.
Adegbesan’s remarks underscore the organization's belief in the depth of the national team and its ability to overcome the challenge of missing prominent members during the tournament.
The 16th edition of the African Scrabble Championship serves as the premier competitive event for the game across the continent, bringing together top talents from various nations to compete for the continental crown.
Nigeria enters the competition as the defending champion, aiming to maintain its dominance in the sport and secure another victory for the country.
