The Foundation further quoted Ambassador Jaiteh as saying: ”Mr Wisur is a very experienced football scout and he is very excited to explore our new partnership which started during our meeting at the recent Norway Cup Oslo through the help of the Ministry of Youth and Sports of The Gambia. Since we also have the Norway Cup in our programme, the visit will avail both sides to sign an MoU for greater collaboration”.
