The on-going Lagos International Polo Tournament yesterday produced more winners, as the Lagos based teams came to the party this time around by winning the Dansa Cup and the Lagos Open Cup after a thrilling match that entertained the spectators.
Lagos Unity Polo outplayed vibrant Kano Tripple K by a decisive six chukkas to three to lift the prestigious Dansa Cup, while Lagos Shoreline fell to the superior fire power of their fellow Lagos based team, Lagos Fifth Chukker, who had earlier won the Oba of Lagos Cup. They came from behind to nick a comprehensive victory towards the fourth and the fifth chukkas in the five chukka thriller which ended nine chukkas to six.
Meanwhile, the Beginners Cup went to Team B after they humbled Team A by eight goals to zero while individual awards in the Dansa Cup like the “Most Valuable Player” went to Abdul Mumuni of the Lagos Unity Polo and Zuzu, a horse belonging to Abdulahi Ibrahim, “won the Best Playing Pony”.
The Lagos Open Cup saw Diego White of the Lagos Fifth Chukker clinch the MVP award after a distinguished individual performance that has left his name on the lips of almost every spectator who attended the MTN co-sponsored tourney which is taking place at the Ribadu Road polo ground.
The popular polo ground also hosted some of Nigeria’s finest who came to enjoy the game of kings, with personalities like the Oba of Lagos, HRH Rilwan Babatunde Osuolale Aremu Akiolu 1, the vice-president of the Dangote Group, Sani Dangote, Senator Tokunboh Ogunbanjo, the Attorney-General of Ogun State, Mrs. Abimbola Akeredolu, the Ogun State Commissioner for Commerce and Industry, Otunba Bimbo Ashiru, Prince Lanre Tejuosho and many other dignitaries graced the tourney which closed the first weekend on an entertaining mood.
Up and coming music star, Yemi Alade stepped on stage and performed some of her songs currently making waves both on TV and radio. The second part of the tournament will kick off on Wednesday and will also feature MTN brand ambassadors on Saturday, March 1, the eve of the finals
