Nauru Powerlifting team

Nauruan team wins big at World Powerlifting Championships

Deamo Baguga, 32, works as a Nauru-Based Cargo Supervisor and has spent near 10 years with Nauru Airlines.

But his job isn’t the only thing he’s good at! From October 12-14, Deamo competed on the world stage at the World Powerlifting Champions as part of the Nauruan team.

Deamo has been powerlifting for about five years, and he loves it!

“A few months back in Nauru, I was elected and we had a trial back home and I qualified to be elected to represent,” Deamo says.
