The President of the Gambia Football Federation (GFF), Hon. Lamin Kaba Bajo, and the Federation’s General Secretary, Mr. Lamin Jassey, are currently in Kampala, Uganda, where they joined 18 other representatives of African football federations at the CAF IMPACT Strategic Roundtable. The high-level gathering, convened by the Confederation of African Football (CAF), is aimed at strengthening governance and accountability within the sport across the continent. The CAF IMPACT program—described as a flagship initiative—seeks to ensure the proper implementation and utilization of development funds, while promoting transparency, sound financial management, and improved football infrastructure among CAF Member Associations and Zonal Unions.

Speaking after the first day of discussions, General Secretary Jassey highlighted the importance of the forum, noting that it brought together presidents and general secretaries from more than 19 member associations for an engaging roundtable exchange on the future of African football governance. The conference continues in Kampala with deliberations expected to shape reforms and best practices in football administration across Africa.
