We know that our ambassadors are in the ‘Moov,’ they are conquerors, they will represent us with strength, determination, courage, and dignity», he declared.

The check was handed over to the Chief of Staff of the Ministry of Sports, Hyppolyte Lougné Bassolé, who applauded this mobilization in favor of the Stallions.

«All the funds received for supporting the Stallions will be used for their intended purpose. We thank all these stakeholders because together we will be able to win this trophy, and we are focused», he stated.
