Ladies and Gentlemen, are you ready to Rumble!!! 🔥🔥🔥

Congratulations on your Appointment...

JP,

Congratulations on your appointment.

Positions come and go, but leadership is measured by the pressure you can carry, the integrity you maintain when nobody is watching, and the impact you leave on the people around you. This appointment is recognition of the work, commitment, and reputation you have built over time.

I know the road ahead will not always be easy. Leadership comes with criticism, expectations, and responsibility that many people never see from the outside. But I also know you have the character and resilience to handle it.

May this new chapter bring growth, strength, wisdom, and the opportunity to make a real difference wherever you serve.

Wishing you success and respect in your new role.

Congratulations once again.

Arnie Williams
World President

Nico,

My boy… where do I even begin?

When I look back at the years behind us, I don’t just see an athlete or a member of a federation — I see a young man who grew in front of our eyes. I’ve watched you fight through challenges, grow through adversity, mature as a man, and carry yourself with more strength and dignity than many people twice your age.

You have come a long way.

Through every season, every stage, every victory and setback, one thing always remained clear — your heart. Your loyalty. Your passion. Your respect for the people around you. Those are things nobody can teach. Those are things that come from character.

And I want you to know something very important…

You were appreciated.

More than you probably realise.

The impact you made, the memories you created, the respect you earned, and the example you became to others will never be forgotten. Men are not remembered only for trophies or titles. They are remembered for the way they made people feel, the way they carried themselves, and the legacy they leave in the hearts of others.

I have watched you grow almost like a son, and today I speak to you with the pride of a father figure who genuinely wants to see you win in life — not only in bodybuilding, but as a man.

As you step into this next chapter, I pray that God guides your path, strengthens your spirit, protects your heart, and opens doors greater than anything behind you. Never lose the humility, discipline, and fire that brought you this far.

Walk forward proudly.
Walk forward with purpose.
And never forget where you came from.

From Uncle Arnie… thank you for the journey, my boy.

We love you.
We respect you.
And we wish you nothing but greatness in the road ahead.

IBFF WORLDWIDE™ PAN AFRICAN CHAMPIONSHIP | Zambia
Africa’s First Pan-African Show

🇿🇲PRESS RELEASE🇿🇲🚨🚨🚨

IBFF WORLDWIDE™ ANNOUNCES THE PAN AFRICAN CHAMPIONSHIP — AFRICA’S FIRST PAN-AFRICAN PRO BODYBUILDING SHOW

Zambia to host historic continental event on 27–28 November 2026

Lusaka, Zambia — [FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE] — IBFF Worldwide™ is proud to officially announce the IBFF Worldwide™ PAN African Championship, Africa’s first true Pan-African professional bodybuilding championship, taking place in Zambia on 27–28 November 2026.

This historic event will unite elite athletes, federation leaders, national representatives, and supporters from across the African continent under one banner — delivering a world-class sporting spectacle that marks a new era of bodybuilding excellence, professional opportunity, and international visibility for African athletes.

The PAN African Championship is positioned as a premier continental title event, designed to raise bodybuilding standards across Africa while creating a structured pathway for African athletes to gain recognition, credibility, and long-term professional growth within the global physique sports industry.

A CONTINENTAL MILESTONE FOR AFRICAN SPORT

For decades, Africa has produced exceptional bodybuilding talent — yet many athletes have lacked access to a professional platform that is genuinely African-led, professionally structured, and internationally presentable. The IBFF Worldwide™ PAN African Championship changes that permanently.

This championship is not simply another contest — it is a continental milestone, built to become Africa’s flagship professional bodybuilding championship, hosted in a nation ready to lead Africa forward.

ZAMBIA: THE HOST NATION FOR AFRICA’S NEW PRO STAGE

Zambia has been selected as the official host nation for the 2026 championship due to its growing regional influence, stability, and readiness to support major sporting and cultural events.
IBFF Worldwide™ recognizes Zambia as a strategic location for a Pan-African championship and looks forward to partnering with Zambian stakeholders to ensure an event that is professionally executed and internationally respected.

IBFF Worldwide™ also extends recognition to His Excellency President Chemwemwe Banda, acknowledging the importance of leadership and national support in enabling Zambia to host major events that uplift African sport, tourism, and youth-driven opportunity.
