Ace boxing promoter, Alhaji Muritala Tofik, has been appointed the Vice President of the revived West Africa Boxing Union (WABU).
He will deputise for the current President of the boxing regulatory body for the West African sub region, Remi Aboderin from Nigeria.
The former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ambition Boxing Promotion is expected to bring his rich experience in the sport’s administration to bear as WABU reaches out to countries within the sub-region to revive the sport of boxing.
Less than six months after his tenure, Ghana has had the opportunity to stage two WABU championships, the last of which was held at the Lebanon House on Saturday in Accra where Illiasu Sulley stopped Mawuli Folivi to win the WABU middleweight strap.
