Eight Countries to Compete in Third Edition of IFBB West African Championships

In a celebration of strength, determination, and unity, the 3rd edition of the International Fitness and Bodybuilding Federation (IFBB) West African championship is about to unfold.

Eight countries are gearing up for an electrifying showdown, and the stage is set at the GA Mashie Hall of the Trust Sports Emporium in Accra. From every corner of Ghana, fitness and bodybuilding aficionados are converging.

They share a passion for sculpted physiques, unwavering discipline, and the thrill of competition. But this event isn’t just about flexing muscles—it’s about camaraderie and pushing boundaries.

Ghana, our gracious host, welcomes six other nations: Tanzania, Niger, Sierra Leone, Togo, Burkina Faso, and Ivory Coast. Together, they form a vibrant tapestry of cultures, languages, and aspirations. However, the suspense lingers—will Nigeria join the fray? Their participation remains unconfirmed.

Mr. George Fousta Baffoe, Vice President of the Ghana Bodybuilding and Fitness Association (GBFA), radiates optimism. He envisions this year’s championship surpassing all previous editions. What sets it apart? The dazzling diversity of countries competing. It’s more than a contest; it’s a celebration of shared dreams.

Ghana will be well-represented by 15 athletes across various categories such as traditional bodybuilding, Men’s Physique, Female Bikini, and Men’s Classic Physique. The event is proudly sponsored by Iron Man Supplements, with whom the association has had a longstanding collaboration.

The GBFA’s success story unfolds. Seven athletes have ascended to professional status under their guidance. These aren’t mere titles; they’re passports to international arenas. The world awaits, and Ghana’s stars are ready to shine.

Dr. Samuel Adjei, the Technical Director, rallies the nation. Let’s fill the stands, raise our voices, and cheer for Team Ghana. Our support isn’t just applause; it’s a lifeline for dreams.  Mr. Samuel Baah, Brand Ambassador of Iron Man Supplement, reaffirms their commitment.

They’re not just in the business of fitness; they’re in the business of passion. Their unwavering support propels Ghana’s bodybuilding journey.  The International Fitness and Body Building Federation (IFBB) West African championship is slated for April 27, 2024.
