Seventeen of the twentys nawettan clubs in Bakau have petitioned the Bakau Zonal & Sports Committee, calling on them to resign with immediate effect.

Representatives of the nawettan clubs held a crisis meeting over the weekend, and have decided to formally write to the National Sports Council for a possible immediate action.

In a two-page petition letter addressed to the National Sports Council and copied to other football stakeholders, the disgruntled Bakau clubs queried that seven  of the ten-member committee have either resigned or left the country, and yet there were no replacements since then.

The clubs stated that the current three-man committee, which is headed by controversial Bakary Dampha (Paco), has also failed to present a financial reports to the clubs despite several request.

The present dilapidated state of the Bakau Mini-stadium and the dressing rooms, according to the aggrieved clubs, are lucid testimonies that the sports committee has failed in delivering to the clubs and Bakau town general.
