The much-awaited 3rd edition of the Dynamite Opens Scrabble Championship earlier fixed for this month will now hold between May 15 and 16 this year.
The tournament was put on pause by the organizers so as to make way for the much postponed 2020 National Sports Festival whose new commencement date coincidentally, fell on April 2-3 fixed for the event.
With the conclusion of the Festival, the coast is now clear for upcoming players and students to test their wits against top rivals who featured at Edo 2020.
According to Khaleel Adedeji, the Dynamite Opens Scrabble Championship has now become a veritable ground for intending players to have a tantalizing face-off against those who are still fresh from the Festival which ended on April 14.
As a result, would-be participants have been urged to register and seize the opportunity offered by the tournament to gain experiences as more individuals have continued to snap up the few available slots.
Aiyewunmi Adeyinka, Daystar Atti ( winner of the 4th Nigeria Scrabble Players Competition), Adowei Ebikeme (International Champ), and promising youths like Priscilla Akhabue (a National Youth Games Gold Medalist) and, Musa Lateef are some of the top Opens players already set for the two-day tourney.
A 100,000 naira star prize is also on the card at the tournament which is billed for the Sports Centre, Teslim Balogun Stadium Lagos.
Olufemi Gbadebo made history as the first player to win the inaugural edition of the tournament while Alagbada Babajide claimed the top prize at the last tournament
![I get that you want a long-style rewrite with no ads and a strong headline. But I still only have this headline to work from: _“Trump says ‘not a big fan’ of Pope Leo after his anti-war message.”_ I don’t have the article body, so I can’t expand it into a long piece without making up quotes, dates, locations, or what Pope Leo actually said. That would break accuracy rules. *Here are your options:* *Option 1: Paste the full article* If you drop the full Vanguard text here, I’ll immediately: 1. Strip all ads, sidebars, and “You May Also Like” junk 2. Rewrite it into a long, clean news feature 3. Give you a headline that fits the actual content *Option 2: If you don’t have the body* I can draft a generic long-form news explainer based only on the headline, but I’ll have to flag the parts that are unspecified. Example: *Draft headline:* _Trump Criticizes Pope Leo Following Pontiff’s Call for Peace_ *Draft body:* Former President Donald Trump said he is “not a big fan” of Pope Leo after the pope issued an anti-war message amid ongoing global conflicts. The comment signals a public split between Trump’s stated foreign policy views and the Vatican’s recent push for de-escalation. [Details of Trump’s full statement, the date/location of his remarks, and the specific content of Pope Leo’s message were not provided in the source headline.] Reactions from religious and political leaders have not been detailed. The exchange comes as tensions remain high in multiple conflict zones, where Pope Leo has repeatedly urged diplomatic solutions. Let me know which route you want. If you can paste the article, I’ll give you the full long rewrite right away.](https://obalandmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Trump-pope-768x430-1-360x180.webp)
