You may not know or believe it but start counting, Nigeria is losing all her glory, achievements
and good records since buhari became president.

This buhari is not a good omen at all. He is just hunger for power but has nothing upstairs.

It is not a total loss.

Nigeria won the World Scrabble Championship at the same competition.

Mr. Jack Mpakaboari clinched the Section B category by beating Sandy of the USA 3 nil at the same MSI competition.

Mr. Kekeregor placed 11 in the Masters category which was Nigeria's best standing .

Paul ETA was 47th.

UK's Brett Smitheran was the prestigious MSI WORLDS SCRABBLE CHAMPIONSHIP beating Mark Nyman , a past World Champion, 3 nil in the epic final.

His word BRACONID gave bum the championship.

GYNAECIA, PERIAGUA, ZORINOS are other lovelies Brett played En route this famous victory .

It was a pity Nigeria was not fully represented in this year's WSC.
We have what it takes to win again.

Anyway, Kenya is up next year and I see us winning big-time.

Better luck next time.

...o, and next time, my advice to the team is open your eyes. Since you guys have won once, and such a big deal has been made about it, Oyibos will find all sorts of means of ensuring you don't win again. So when next you go to these venues, be paranoid, make sure you look out for hidden, whatever means are known to facilitate the unfair winning of scrabble games. Don't forget under the table, the ceiling etc wining is is serious business especially wherever there is a whiff of racial or ethnic superiority at stake grin

That is the spirit; better luck next time. But from No. 1 to No 23rd? the slide is just much my brother. Why did you not prepare better na... knowing you're repping your beloved country? May God help you do better at the next opportunity.

Well, this is one of the reasons we must continue to appreciate the Dream Team and Samson Siasia for their bronze feat at the Rio2016, despite the challenges they faced and arrival few hours to their opener against Japan.

There is a healthy argument swirling the Net about the validity of the claim or not.

Kudos, you've done great.

Can't wait for the world toughest brain game coming 11th Nov to 31st Nov 2016 at New York.
World number one, Magnus Carlsen (World International Chess Championship Grand Master) will chisel it out

I play Scrabble but Chess is far far far tougher, strategic and complicated. Unless you've played Chess, you won't understand.

E.g You have diff words to think of before starting off a Scrabble. It's true that this determines your score.
But in Chess, you have 20 diff brain strategized moves to make for a start, which if wrongly handled, you'll be gone

Magnus Carlsen was asked, in 2012, wat he learnt from one of his mentor, Garry Kasparov (GM), he said, "COMPLEX POSITIONS"

These complex position keeps business moving, keeps leadership, American Soldiers don't joke wt that.

Look out for a Scrabble club to join. Almost all states have at least one. There are a couple in and around Lagos. Ogun and Delta states have a few too, as well as the FCT. But largely depending on your location.
Call 07034201616 for assistance.
Cheers!
