Kenya Professional Boxing Commission (KPBC) president Reuben Nolo has been appointed the World Boxing Alliance Association (WABA) Governor.

According to WABA, Ndolo’s appointment was necessitated by his sound track record while serving as the Commonwealth Boxing Council (CBC) in early 2000’s.

Ndolo’s appointment was made stronger following the backing of former Tanzania Professional Boxing Commission (TPBC) President Onesmo Ngowi who was among those who supported the Kenyan while vying for top CBC seat.

“Tanzania under the auspices of the then President of TPBC and member of CBC Hon Onesmo Alfred Ngowi stood by Ndolo who was contesting for the CBC Presidency,’’ read a statement.

It added:” Fast forward nine years later, in 2023, WABA has  given Ndolo the opportunity to be the new Governor of Commonwealth and Indo-Oceania. Under his governorship, Ndolo will administer British Commonwealth and Ondo-Oceania titles eeven as the title was bestowed to his rich credentials in boxing governance matters.
