Veteran sports administrator, Franklin Wilson, was Saturday elected as the new president of the Guyana Amateur Power Lifting and Fitness Federation (GAPLF) when the body held its Annual General Meeting (AGM) at the National Racquet Centre on Woolford Avenue.

Wilson gained the confidence of the electorate ahead of Mark Seymour, who served in the previous executive as PRO/Organising Secretary. Outgoing President, Gordon Spencer, did not seek re-election.

Owner of Chase Academic Foundation, Henry Chase gained the nod for the vice president position ahead of Keisha Abrigo while Roger Rogers retained his position as general secretary from the previous body.
