Africa-Press – Gambia. The leader of the Restore Confidence Team in the recent Gambia Football Federation elections, Sadibou Kamaso has written a petition to both Caf and Fifa about the conduct of the recent GFF elections. The full letter is reproduced below:
Dear Secretary General,
On behalf of my team and my humble self, I respectfully write to your esteemed office to officially petition against the Gambia Football Federation (GFF) President’s actions and that of the GFF Electoral Committee on matters touching and concerning the GFF Elective Congress held on the 27th day of August 2022 at the Paradise Suites Hotel. The reasons for this petition are highlighted hereunder for your kind attention and possible action:
Article 24(c) “The General Assembly has the following authority- (c) Electing the President and Vice Presidents and members of the Executive Committee”
Article 34.2 “The members of the Executive Committee shall be elected individually by the General Assembly. Every candidate in the election of Executive Committee members must be proposed by at least one member. Members of the Regional Football Associations shall be elected by the Regions and confirmed by the GFF General Assembly.”
In light of the facts and evidence above, we hereby submit this protest for your kind attention and possibly action not only to ensure that our game is rid of maladministration of elections and extraordinary congress conducted by the GFF President, his executive and the Electoral Committee but if possible set up a committee to investigate the claims stated here above and take necessary action to protect the rights and liberties of all stakeholders in football, which will contribute to the country’s football development.
I remain,
Yours respectfully,
Sadibou Kaamaso
Team Leader
Team Restore Confidence
