Joseph Benedict Gbogba, Chairman of the Southern Region Football Association, commended the people of Pujehun for their support and hospitality towards Babadi Kamara. He declared his support for Kamara’s bid to become the next SLFA President assuring that the 9 delegates in his region are strongly backing Babadi for the top seat, and encouraged others to rally behind him.

In his address, Babadi Kamara expressed his gratitude to the people of the District. He underscored his ties to the district and his commitment to developing football talent. 

Babadi Kamara highlighted the importance of fair play, good behaviour and staying away from violence and drug abuse in football. He also shared his vision for football development in the country, including projects like the construction of the Southern Arena, which aim to contribute to the growth of football and never meant for personal gains.

As a gesture of support, Babadi Kamara presented 45 footballs to the participating teams, which was gratefully received by the District FA Chairman. The donation will help provide necessary equipments for the players and further promote football development in the region.
