Then came the EVLS Prague Pro, a week later where he secured his first PRO win and his first Olympia qualification. Yinka also made a public appearance as a guest poser at the NPCWW Ultimate Seminar in February 2026 post which him and coach Nathan decided to set their sight solely on preparing for the Olympia and bringing their best package yet.
