In another remarkable show of support for Sierra Leonean football fans, the President of the Sierra Leone Football Association (SLFA), Babadi Kamara, has personally provided ten (10) free buses to transport supporters to Monrovia, Liberia, ahead of the Leone Stars’ 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifier against Burkina Faso on Wednesday, October 8, 2025, at the Samuel K. Doe Stadium.
The initiative, fully financed through President Kamara’s personal effort, aims to give more Sierra Leoneans the opportunity to travel and cheer the national team during this crucial encounter. It follows the overwhelming success of the first edition, when four buses were made available for fans a gesture that was widely praised for boosting morale and strengthening fan unity.
This time, the initiative has more than doubled in scale, with two buses assigned per region, allowing greater fan participation from across the country. The expansion underscores President Kamara’s deep commitment to fan engagement and his desire to ensure that supporters remain an integral part of Sierra Leone’s football journey.
