Gambia Olympic chief meets African head in Abuja

Bai Dodou Jallow from the Gambia National Olympic Committee went to Abuja on Monday. He met with Mustapha Berraf, who runs the Association of National Olympic Committees of Africa. They talked about how they can work together to improve sports in the Gambia. The meeting helped build stronger links between Gambia and the bigger African sports group.

Berraf told Jallow he would help Gambia. He said Gambia has many great athletes and people who run sports well. These talented people need polish and support to shine brighter. Berraf wants everyone to see how good Gambian sports can be. He promised his backing for all their plans and asked Jallow to keep pushing forward with his team.

The African Olympic chief promised money to fix up the Olympic House, where Gambian sports leaders work. He also wants to train Gambian Olympic staff to do their jobs even better. These steps will make sports grow faster across the country. Better buildings and smarter staff mean more success for athletes from this small nation.

Jallow thanked Berraf for spending time with him during the visit. He promised that his team would keep working hard to improve all sports in Gambia. Both men agreed that their partnership matters for the future of African athletics. They shared ideas about how to help young players grow into champions who can compete worldwide.

Berraf sees Gambia as an important part of African sports. He plans to travel there between April and June this year. During his trip, he hopes to meet with President Adama Barrow. This high-level meeting aims to build stronger bonds between ANOCA and all its member countries. Such connections help every African nation develop better sports programs.
