Endorsement Statement from Team Kaba ahead of the 2026 GFF Elective Congress
The leadership of Team Kaba is pleased to announce that, after exhaustive and transparent consultations within the members of the team and beyond, we have formally endorsed Colonel Musa M Balla Jammeh, a.k.a Falcon, as our presidential candidate for the August 2026 Gambia Football Federation (GFF) Elective Congress.
This landmark decision by the Team comes as we prepare to transition from the visionary leadership of Lamin Kaba Bajo.
President Bajo will step down at the end of his current mandate in August this year to honor a term limit that he himself introduced. We acknowledge the incredible legacy and foundation laid during his tenure, and our focus remains steadfast on ensuring the continuity of development in Gambian football.
Selection Process
Colonel Jammeh and Mr. Kemo Ceesay were the two candidates who expressed interest in succeeding President Bajo. As a result, a broad-based consultation was initiated to ensure a unified front with the expected outcome of rallying behind a single candidate. In addition, several meetings between the two candidates and the leadership of Team Kaba could not produce a consensus candidate through internal dialogue.
In the interest of the Team, and to consolidate the remarkable gains made in our football over the last decade, we have determined that Musa Jammeh is the best candidate for the position at this moment to maintain our upward trajectory on the international and local stages.
A Call to Unity
In conclusion, Team Kaba urges all members and supporters to rally behind Colonel Jammeh, alias Falcon, for the upcoming elections. Now is the time to unify our strengths and set our sights on the future of Gambian football.
Team Kaba!
