NFSC Chairman Ikpea formally receives Pro- Wrestling Ambassadorship Award
National Chairman of the Nigeria Football Supporters Club, Rev ( Amb.) Samuel Ikpea was Wednesday officially presented with his Pro-Wrestling Ambassadorship Award which was awarded to him in Brussels, the Belgian Capital.
It would be recalled that last week, Actu FIGHT Belgium honored Ikpea with the Ambassadorial award which was received on his behalf by the Secretary General of Pro- Wrestling Africa (PWA), Olusesan Olukoya who was on a 12 day working visit in Europe.
Presenting the award to him, Olukoya noted that the world body took cognizance of all the good work he’s doing for the promotion of pro-wrestling activities in the African continent to consider him for the award
“This award which I received on your behalf in Belgium is in recognition of your support to professional wrestling and as the patron of Pro Wrestling Africa, we are happy with your level of support and wish you more of such awards.
” I know you would have loved to be in Belgium to personally receive this award but official national engagements prevented you from going there but I bring goodwill messages from officials of Actu Fight Belgium who are looking forward for more cordial relationship with you in future”, noted Olukoya.
Receiving the award, Ikpea described it as the best award he has received in recent times and commended Actu Belgium for finding him worthy for such an award.
“I’m highly honoured by this award and I am short of words on how to describe my feelings
” This award is an indication that people all over the world recognizes what am doing in encouraging professional wrestling to thrive in Africa and I will continue to do more for the sports because it will help in creating employment opportunities for our teeming youths”, he concluded
