The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members and if you support the community, they will support you. This ideology has been vividly demonstrated countless times by a great man and a humanitarian, Mahmoud Kamara aka “Nice-Guy”.
In an effort to mitigate and possibly entirely eradicate the concept of violence especially during the electioneering process, Nice-Guy has taken up the venture of using sports as a way of preaching peace and solidarity.
As the election fever is boiling up and tensions rising, Nice-Guy has taken another step to unify the people of Constituency 132 and is spreading awareness of holding peaceful elections.
The Constituency 132 ‘Peace and Solidarity Trophy’ as it is named, commences on 12th December 2021, and will last up to a month. This competition aims at unifying the people of Constituency 132 in order for them to have common interest; and to see the community grow irrespective of their differences.
This competition is a means to help tackle issues surrounding violence and cleansing the minds of young people from perpetrating violence and chaos.
Mahmoud Kamara aka Nice-Guy, has assured that this competition will bring economic viability, as vendors will have the opportunity to showcase their different goods to the public.
As the competition commences on 12th December 2021, market women and other business people would be given the platform to sell their goods to the community. Other activities would also be on display whilst competing teams would receive gate-takings after the end of every match.
Additionally, it is a way of boosting financial support to football players and at the same time improve football team chemistry.
In an interview with Mahmoud Kamara aka Nice-Guy, he affirmed that supporting the community is important. He added that he has been a supporter of the community since his childhood. He maintained that as a humanitarian with great empathy for his people, he would not have a strong quality of life if he doesn’t engage on this venture. He added that it is important to the person who serves as well as the recipients, and that “it is the way in which we ourselves grow and develop.”
The football kits and equipment worth over thousands of US dollars will be distributed amongst the competing teams as a way of supporting and creating a long-lasting partnership that is built on love and peace.
He went on to say that using football to promote peace and solidarity is a good move, not only because football is all about peace, togetherness and love, but that it is also an opportunity to promote young football stars and identify potential international football talents.
The people of Constituency 132, according to interviews done by this press are madly in love with football; which they say is a means of bringing the community people together. He added that, football is transforming the lives of many young people in the community, and that many of these youngsters have succeeded at playing for the national team. He went on to state that this competition will also give upcoming footballers the chance to showcase their talents, and that this will lead to spotting of football talents for international competitions.
According to Mr. Nice-Guy, this is the tip of the iceberg as he has tons of plans in store for the people of Constituency 132. His agenda behind all his moves, he said, is to see that the people of Constituency 132 progress; and that aside from football and sports in general, there are other events and developments that are on the way for the people of Constituency 132.
He used the opportunity to call on his constituents to stand by him and to do everything possible to show that they are united.
