 20 armed wrestlers have qualified to represent Nigeria at the World Arm Wrestling Competition in Georgia in September. They took part in the Nigeria Championship in Lagos where they competed in different categories as Hilary Noroka reports. The screams as contestants encourage their colleagues, competing for medals at the Nigeria Arm Wrestling Championship. There are two categories in the women's event and five in the men's. After six rounds of the 60kg category, Blessing Ogunbele becomes victorious. For the women's 90kg category, it's the current African champion, Sandra Indupu, slogging it out with her champion, Adema. I started in 2018. That was my first championship in Ghana. Then in 2019, we went to Mali where I also won a gold medal. Later on, we had a championship in Lagos here. Also, we won a gold also. So now again, we are back to Lagos. And I just won the gold also for the fourth time. Indupu retains her title in both the left and right hand bout of the category. The men displayed toughness in the 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100kg categories with of course winners and losers. I feel so happy. It feels good. With no sponsorship, a few people have ensured arm wrestling is alive in Nigeria. We're having this championship to select the Nigerian team towards the Georgia 21 in September. So as a qualifier, we're not getting support from anywhere. But after this championship, I'm going to sit down with my part. Then we're speaking some of our friends to give us support towards Georgia in September. The 2021 arm wrestling championship here in Lagos is over. Matches have been won and lost. What is left now is for these athletes here to represent Nigeria at the world arm wrestling championship in Georgia in September. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.
