In his first official media appearance since assuming office, the newly elected President of the Sierra Leone Football Association (SLFA), Babadi Kamara, appeared on AYV News Television’s flagship breakfast program, Wake Up Salone, Wednesday morning. His wide-ranging and candid interview marked the beginning of what many are calling a new chapter for Sierra Leonean football.

Kamara began by outlining his immediate priorities, with a focus on reforming the SLFA Secretariat. He described the current condition of the administrative body as inadequate and outdated, stating that it does not meet the standards of modern football governance. He pledged to transform the institution into a professional and efficient organization that promotes innovation, transparency, and accountability.

One of the key issues Kamara addressed was the structure of the Sierra Leone Premier League. He emphasized the need to align the local league calendar with the international transfer window. “We must ensure that our league structure is in sync with global football operations. This will not only make our players more marketable internationally but also enhance the integrity of the local game,” he said.

The SLFA President also made a strong call for unity, extending an olive branch to all football stakeholders following the recent elections. He urged everyone, regardless of affiliation, to join forces in rebuilding and improving the sport across the country. “Now that the elections are over, it’s time to put football first. I welcome every stakeholder to join hands in rebuilding our game,” he stated.

Kamara was equally passionate about gender equality in sports. He affirmed his commitment to supporting women’s football at the same level as the men’s game, promising equal investment, visibility, and opportunities. “Female football deserves equal investment, visibility, and opportunity. We will ensure that our female athletes are given the platform and support they need to excel,” he declared.

Grassroots development also featured prominently in Kamara’s vision. He stressed the importance of identifying and nurturing young talent from across Sierra Leone. “If we are serious about becoming competitive on the continental and global stage, we must build from the bottom. Grassroots development is key,” he emphasized.

On infrastructure, Kamara promised to collaborate with government agencies, corporate institutions, and international partners to improve football facilities nationwide. He acknowledged that poor playing surfaces and lack of resources have hindered player development and fan participation for years.

Concluding the interview, Kamara reiterated his ambition to elevate Sierra Leone’s national teams, especially Leone Stars, to become symbols of national pride and global recognition. “We want our national teams to be symbols of pride—disciplined, competitive, and worthy of the support they receive. That is my ultimate ambition,” he said.

The interview sparked a wave of positive reactions on social media, with viewers praising Kamara’s calm demeanour, humility, and passion for the game. Many described him as “Godsent” for Sierra Leonean football—an inspirational leader poised to usher in a new era of progress, unity, and hope.
