…Urges FairPlay Among Participating Teams
“Sports is an integral part of every human being, and today we are gathered here again for a very youthful event, the Kick off of the Governor’s Cup competition, and I implore all of you that are participating to keep to the rules of the game, as we know the game is fair play.
And for the ministry and the organisers, I’ll like to appreciate you, and thank you for ensuring that this year did not pass us by.
I wish all of you the participating teams good luck, this is a competition that you need to put in your best because you wouldn’t know those who are coming to watch you, or those who are coming to scout for players, and this competition will expose you nationally internationally.”
