He promised to work unconditionally with clubs, coaches and judges associations and other agents of society involved in the policy process.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe objective is to obtain solid structures and development programs that allow identifying and nurturing talents in all provinces with the promotion of stronger competitions\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the officialization of the football league official, he considers its implementation urgent, for reorganization and valorization, due to the investments made by clubs in the National Championship (Girabola), whose profits are zero.<\/p>\n<p>In his opinion, the league will require greater responsibility to put at the same level with major African club competitions. Among several plans, he mentioned that transparency will be a non-negotiable pillar during his mandate time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe resources allocated to football will be managed responsibly, ensuring that each action reflects the commitment to ethics and sporting values, to maintain the trust of members and international entities\u201d, he stressed.<\/p>\n<p>Alves Simo\u0303es replaced Artur Almeida e Silva in the position, whom he beat by 128 votes, compared to 114, after the election held this year, while the third candidate, Norberto de Castro, obtained just six votes.<\/p>\n<p>With a team made up of 30 members, the former chairman of Interclube will be assisted by eight members, namely Ada\u0303o Costa, Jose\u0301 Macaia, Manuel Silvestre, Nivaldo Fragoso, Paulo Magueijo, as well as the former players Carlos Alonso \u201cKali\u201d, Aure\u0301lio Soares and Irene Gonc\u0327alves.<\/p>\n<p>The General Assembly board is chaired by Francisco Neto, assisted by Fernanda Anto\u0301nio (vice-president) and Isabel Wedeingue (secretary).<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Angola<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
