FEMALE SECTION

The Three Nigerian Female players on parade at the zone 4.4 has clearly shown superior fire power on the chess board over their counterpart from other countries at this event having 100% scores against all non Nigerian chess players and only have each other to contend with as they head towards a Nigerian first to third position, the most crucial game of the event came in round 5 when Labake Coker who is the present Nigerian Female national champion defeated  OFOWINO Toritsemuwa   having defeated WCM Bisi Rabiu (another Nigerian in the fourth round) she is the most likely to win the event while the other two Nigerians that is Bisi and Toritsemuwa who will be clashing in round six will have to settle to second and third positions. All in all it is a wonderful performance for the Nigerian female players.it is clear that the Nigerian ladies are going to be first, second and third a big Congratulations to the Nigerian LADIES unfortunately the Ladies event did not meet up with the requirement for the award of the WIM title so there will be no award of ANY TITLES in the Ladies. but winning the tournament is still part of the experience and something to be proud of !! we hope future events will have more Federations in participation to meeting up with FIDE  Requirement.
