He said anywhere he now travels to all his African presidential counterparts tell him Gambia\u2019s achievements in football, citing similar encounters with the Presidents of Ghana, South Africa, and Guinea Bissau.<\/p>\n

President Barrow expressed delight with the achievements and enjoined the GFF leadership to remain committed to their development agenda, especially the plans to create a professional league by the season 2025\/26, which he noted will help create employment opportunities in the sector. He also assured them of his government\u2019s continued funding of football.<\/p>\n
