It was an exciting sight as the best spellers in the North East Geopolitical zone of Nigeria converged at the Jewel of the Savannah (Gombe State) for the North East Regional Qualifiers of the Nigeria Spelling Bee.
The competition which was hosted at Metrix International Academy Gombe was attended by the various top spellers from Gombe, Adamawa, Taraba, Bauchi, Yobe and Borno States who all came to lay claim for a chance to represent the Region at the National Finals.
In addition to the One Million Naira and Five Hundred Thousand Naira scholarship for the National Senior and Junior Champions, National Finalists also stand to represent Nigeria at the African Spelling Bee and also win other exciting prizes.
At the end of both written and oral contests, the below-listed spellers emerged as the best spellers in the North-East geopolitical zone.

We also wish to say a big thank you to all who contributed to make the event a memorable one for all, especially our hard-working coaches who painstakingly trained their spellers.
