Also joining the front row for the fiesta was Ghana-based star Stanley Ubiede.

First of its kind in scrabble, the tournament will see 8 highly-ranked players by the Nigeria Scrabble Federation and two wild cards play one another over a total of 180 games of 36 rounds at an enclosed area for a three day period.

Five dedicated WhatsApp lines have been made available for enthusiasts and stakeholders to closely follow the moves and the progress of the tournament.

Breaking this fresh development to the media on the President of Gambia Scrabble Federation Abba Hydara and Stanley Ubiede signing up for the “Scrabble In The Jungle” viewing on WhatsApp channels was Musa Olasupo, President of Scrabble Las Vegas.

He informed the global audience that both international personalities have picked up places in the VVIP lounge.

According to him, “The President of Gambia Scrabble Association just subscribed to follow our Scrabble in the Jungle Games. Stanley Ubiede also showed us love and he has a prime position in the VVIP lounge.”

World Champion Wellington Jighere, former World No. 4 Enoch Nwali, African champions Nsikak Etim and Dennis Ikekeregor as well other top dogs in the mindgame Eta Karo, Emmanuel Umujose, Oshevire Avwenagha will slug it out on the board for points and the cash prize.
