According to him, the federation chose the best wrestlers from all the six geopolitical zones, to represent the country in the three-day tournament.
Agbadabina said they would strive to perform better in the next edition in 2022.
He noted that the organisation of the tournament was perfect, but that the major challenge they faced was communication because the country was French speaking.
