"This event is more than just football; it's a vital platform unearthing hidden gems from our neighbourhoods."

Mr Rahman expressed his belief that the AMSER Zongo Inter-Tribal Football Competition is a unifying force that not only showcases athletic skills but also brings together youth from diverse backgrounds.

His goal is to provide diverse platforms that spotlight the multifaceted talents of Zongo youth, not just in sports but also in areas such as arts, technology and entrepreneurship.

"I'll work tirelessly to ensure these skills don't go unnoticed, creating opportunities that extend far beyond the football pitch," he stated, emphasising his commitment to empowering the youth and unlocking their potential.
