Two IE Stalwarts
Differ On Premiership League
February 20, 2003
At a recent program to inaugurate officials of
second division side Cardinals, former IE Vice President for
Operations Edward Forson emphatically said a proposed Premier Football
League will not work because the Liberia Football Association (LFA)
will not find sponsors.
However, Forson’s successor, Malike Dukuly has lauded
the idea of a Premier League except that, according to him, one has to
consider the caliber of players.
The new IE Operations Vice President stated that the
Premier League, which is expected to kickoff next league season is a
good sign. “I think I support that idea,” Mr. Dukuly, who previously
served IE as Financial Secretary told our reporter in an interview.
The IE Stalwart added that the Premier League will
encourage players to do extra training.
Aside from that, Mr. Dukuly also said the Premier League will serve as
an encouraging factor for self-training by players and also maintained
that the Premiership is a very good way of putting up talented
players.
Mr. Dukuly recently took over from Mr. Forson as Vice
President for Operations of Invincible Eleven (IE) after the latter
resigned on grounds that there was not support to the club.
Also appointed was Mr. Samuel Farkollie to the position
of Vice President for Player Welfare having earlier served as
Assistant Secretary General.
