By: Alhaji A. Barrie

Sierra Leone’s football future is taking a bold leap forward as the newly elected SLFA President Mr. Babadi Kamara makes his first international appearance at the CAF Impact Strategic Roundtable Workshop in Kampala, Uganda. Accompanied by Acting General Secretary Mr. Mohamed Benson Bawoh, Kamara is engaging with fellow African football leaders to shape the next chapter of the sport across the continent.

This milestone marks a powerful transition from Kamara’s celebrated tenure at Bo Rangers FC—where his leadership transformed the club into a national powerhouse—to a broader mission of elevating Sierra Leone’s football on the continental stage. His presence at the workshop reflects a deep commitment to reform, innovation, and sustainable development within the SLFA and beyond.

The Kampala summit focuses on governance, infrastructure, and youth development—key pillars that align with Kamara’s vision for Sierra Leone’s football renaissance. By participating in these strategic discussions, he is positioning the SLFA to benefit from CAF’s collaborative frameworks and unlock new opportunities for growth and investment.

As Kamara steps confidently into his new role, this overseas engagement sends a clear message: Sierra Leone is ready to lead, learn, and contribute to the transformation of African football. With fresh energy and proven leadership, the SLFA is poised for a new era of progress, unity, and international recognition.
