Chief Executive Officer of Kofikrom Pharmacy Limited, Dr. Kofi Addo-Agyekum, has been elected President of the West Africa Region of the African Armwrestling Federation.
The endorsement ushers in a new chapter for Dr. Addo-Agyekum to leave his imprints within the African sports settings. The accomplished administrator has earned reputation for the growing influence of West Africa in the global armwrestling community. Known for his commitment to leadership both in healthcare and sports development, his re-election reflects the trust and confidence stakeholders across the continent have placed in his vision.
In an appreciative message following his confirmation, he expressed deep gratitude for the opportunity to serve:
“Grateful to Africa. 🙏🏾
Thank you for the continued trust and confidence in my leadership as President of the West Africa Region of the African Armwrestling Federation.
Together, we press forward with a shared vision elevating elite competitions, empowering our athletes, and promoting inclusive growth across the sport.
The journey continues, and the best is yet to come.”
His words reflect a clear focus on unity and development, with an emphasis on creating stronger platforms for athletes across the region to compete, grow, and gain international recognition.
Dr. Addo-Agyekum’s leadership at Kofikrom Pharmacy Limited has already been widely recognized in the healthcare sector, and his new role is expected to bring that same level of structure, discipline, and innovation into armwrestling governance in West Africa.
For many within the sporting community, his election is seen as a step forward one that could help raise the profile of armwrestling, expand opportunities for young athletes, and strengthen regional cooperation in the sport.
