About a year after the first edition of the Babalola’s Law Dictionary quiz competition, the second edition was even more dramatic as Abdul Abdulateef of Ikeji Shittu and Co. eventually emerged the winner in a keenly contested competition. It seemed a winner would not emerge as the contestants gave each other a run for their money until Abdul Abdulateef was an answer better.
