Joseph Dembélé called for a sacred union around the organizing committee to make this competition a great success.

He stressed that the expected objective with the competition is the revelation of talents in order to form a club called Tin Taani for the benefit of the province of Tapoa which will participate at the national level in the various competitions.

The three months will also be marked by awareness sessions for young people on living well together, he concluded.
