MMA Champion and Professional Boxer, Francis Ngannou, was received with grandeur in his native Batié village in the West Region of Cameroon. The triumphant return to his roots became an unforgettable celebration as thousands gathered to welcome the hometown hero.

Batie is located in the Upper Plataeux Division in the grassfield.

Ngannou, known for his achievements in the world of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and professional boxing, took to Facebook to share his joy and gratitude for the overwhelming reception in Batié. He expressed, “My arrival in Batié yesterday couldn’t be discreet, but it was fun and lovely. It is heartwarming to see the joy and love of people. Thank you.”

The champion’s return to Batié was far from a quiet affair, as the community turned out in droves to celebrate their local hero. Ngannou’s popularity transcends borders, and his success has brought pride not only to his village but to the entire nation of Cameroon.

The festive atmosphere in Batié was palpable as locals, fans, and well-wishers came together to express their admiration and support for Ngannou’s remarkable achievements. The champion’s visit served as a moment of unity, where the community rejoiced in the accomplishments of one of their own.

Ngannou’s Facebook post captured the essence of the celebration, reflecting the genuine joy he felt at being welcomed so warmly. The champion’s humility and connection to his roots were evident as he acknowledged the overwhelming response from the people of Batié, and many fans were happy to see him reconnecting with his roots.

“That’s amazing, boss. Your people are the ones who made you what you are today. Love them with your heart,” Akanbi Taiye said.

“Once a star, always a star. Keep shining everywhere you go, Champ,” wrote Transformed with Ella on Facebook.

“You’ve done extremely well to remember home. You’re truly a hero,” Ketuphel Vlad also reacted.

As Francis Ngannou continues to make his mark on the global stage after his historic fight with Tyson Fury, the Gysy King, his homecoming to Batié serves as a reminder of the importance of community, pride, and the positive impact one individual can have on an entire village.
