Over one hundred delegates are expected to be part of this crucial elective congress out of which seventy-three (73) will comprise of delegates from the twenty-two (22) first and second division league clubs, regional football associations, and the other elite associations. Each of the league clubs has one voting right, each of the four elite affiliated associations has two votes, while 21 votes will be from the regional football associations. Mustapha Kebbeh, speaking at a press conference this week, said he is ready to bring credibility, justice, and fair play into the game. Kebbeh has also confirmed that Buba Janneh of Bombada FC, who goes by his sobriquet Star, will serve as his first vice presidential candidate. Kebba Touray of Gamtel/Gamcel FC also known as KK, will contest for the second vice presidency position while Basirou Bajo of Brikama United FC will be vying for the position of the third vice president.

Four other executive positions will be contested for on the day of the congress. Two have to be females while one will be a retired referee. Borri Darboe of Bakau United Football Club will be joined by retired referee Lamin Camara of the Gambia Football Referees Association and Jainaba Cham of City Girls FC as the members.

He confirmed Willie Abraham (Willie Mbam) of Real de Banjul as his first vice presidential candidate together with Martin Gomez of School Sports Association and Abou Khan as his second and third vice presidential candidates respectively.

But at the time of going to press, there were reports that Willie Abraham has decided to withdraw his candidature for the position of the first vice president. His place has been taken by Pa Samba also of Real de Banjul.
