Social media has been abuzz with shocking reports that Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, former Prime Minister of Pakistan, has been named as Chairman Pakistan Bodybuilding Federation. But the federation has cleared the air now: the rumors are untrue.
Authorities, such as President Tariq Hassan and Secretary Sohail Anwar, explained that the federation never even had a “chairman” office in its organizational structure. Although Chaudhry Shujaat recently received the bodybuilding delegation, he has not officially accepted any designation.
What Really Happened
During the meeting, the federation updated Chaudhry Shujaat on their recent success, such as a stunning five gold medals at an international bodybuilding contest. They also informed him about the financial problems of the sport in Pakistan.
- Congratulated the winners on their triumphs.
- Spoke out in support of bodybuilding in Pakistan on moral grounds.
- Invited the medalists to a dinner reception to celebrate their success.
✅ The Reality Check
The Pakistan Bodybuilding Federation insisted that though they highly appreciate Chaudhry Shujaat’s patronage, it should not be confused with an official appointment. His position is still a well-wisher and sports patron as is customary for a man with his extensive background of encouraging athletes.
