Here is the full text of the message: “It is with a profound sense of joy I extend congratulations to Mr. Hugh Ross on winning the 2010 Mr. UNIVERSE Title (in the over- 40 category). It is the first time that a Guyanese Body- Builder has won the prestigious Mr. Universe title in any category.
I commend Mr. Ross, for his discipline and dedication to the body building sport which demands a compulsory training regimen, good nutrition and a healthy lifestyle.
My Government will continue to contribute to the development of all forms of sports and such endeavours as the Hugh Ross Classic, a national body – building event sanctioned by the Guyana Amateur Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation (GABFF).
Among the best accolades we could bestow on Mr. Ross is our pledge of national support to the grand objectives of sport, in all its forms in Guyana.
Once again, my heartiest congratulations to Mr. Universe – Guyana’s Hugh Ross.”
