Wellington Jighere won the final with words like aah, dacoit and ungifted
|
Nigerians have been congratulating countryman Wellington
Jighere, who has become the
first African to win the English-language World
Scrabble Championship.
The 32-year-old beat Englishman Lewis MacKay 4-0 in the
final in Australia....
Mr Jighere will be coming home with a $10,000 (£6,600) prize
but now has to find a job.
He recently finished his national service following his
graduation from university, but took a few months off from looking for work in
order to prepare for the championship.
