First, my profound gratitude to Allah for the blessings in assisting us to qualify our dear motherland to AFCON for the first time in our history. It is only by his mercy and ordinance that we were able to achieve this great success as a nation.
I would also like to express enormous thanks and appreciation to the GFF President Mr. Lamin Kaba Bajo and his entire Exco who discovered my competence in football administration which precipitated my appointment as Team Manager for the Scorpions.
I equally, would like to thank the Government of The Gambia through the NSC & MOYS for their unflinching support throughout the campaign. My colleagues at the GFF secretariat under the auspices of our dynamic General Secretary. Special thanks to various departments and committees of the GFF, the security, medics, protocol, media, stadium management and groundsmen (pitch), stakeholders, the greater football family and the general public on a larger scale.
To my Coach, fellow Technical Team members and Players, thanks for the trust and confidence conferred on me. The level of professionalism, cooperation, work ethic and team work is incredible.
Finally, I would personally like to dedicate this historic achievement to my predecessors in the role of TM who have all made tremendous efforts to see The Gambia in AFCON. I am just the lucky one but, you are by far the best!
The amount of support from everyone from start to finish was incredibly massive thus, taking this precious moment to congratulate the entire Gambian population both at home and abroad for this magnificent achievement.
CONGRATULATIONS GAMBIA!!!
