The Government of Liberia through the Ministry of Youth and Sports Wednesday donated a 61 seated Bus to the females and Males National Teams of Liberia.

He then lauded the immense effort and contribution of the Mustapha Raji’s administration for bringing transformation to the sport in Liberia.

Receiving the Bus the President of the Liberia Football Association Mustapha Raji thanked the chief patron of Sports, President George Weah for his continuous support to the game.
