Boxing Federation of Kenya leader Anthony 'Jamal' Otieno promises to create big changes for Kenyan boxing that will push the sport forward and build a culture of winning. Ombok shared these thoughts on Sunday after winning another term as president, a position he has held since 2018. He thanked everyone for trusting him and his team to continue their work. He plans to partner with his entire committee to move boxing ahead throughout the country.
Otieno aims to develop new talent, create better competitions, and help national teams succeed at higher levels. He wants to make their boxing leagues more challenging rather than keeping things the same as before. His goal focuses on making athletes more competitive during league events, which should lead to better results when Kenyan boxers compete internationally against other countries. These improvements should help raise the overall quality of boxing across Kenya.
Benjamin Musa kept his role as national treasurer and also coached the national team. He believes they learned valuable lessons during their first term that will guide them as they serve boxing fans across Kenya. Their leadership recognizes both achievements and failures from the past, which helps them make smarter choices going forward. The newly elected committee includes members from many different areas, including Kisumu, Laikipia, Mombasa, and Nairobi.
This diverse group allows the federation to address specific challenges faced by boxers across different regions of Kenya. Having representatives from various counties means they can create plans that work for athletes regardless of where they come from or what resources they have available. Sports Registrar Rose Wasike attended the election along with other officials from the Ministry of Sports to ensure everything happened correctly. The participation of 32 county associations shows boxing connects people at all levels.
Musa described their plans as challenging but possible to achieve. They must improve training facilities, provide better coaching, and invest in programs that find young talent early. Creating stronger competition structures remains essential for giving boxers chances to show their skills and gain experience. These efforts should help Kenyan boxing become more successful both locally and on the world stage as they implement their vision over the coming years.
