The Sports Journalists Association of The Gambia (SJAG) will stage its third annual award ceremony designed to honour outstanding sportsmen and women for their priceless contribution to the development of sports in The Gambia over the year.

The SJAG for the first time is gearing up to staging what is expected to be, if not the biggest but one of, the most successful award ceremonies.

The event will also see the arrival of some of the world’s influential figures in sports including the continent’s prominent international football icons, El-hadji Joof and compatriot Henry Camara from Senegal, among other top athletes.

Dioup, who twice won the African player of the year award, is due in Banjul today alongside fellow countryman Henry Camara  at 7.00pm today ahead of the highly anticipated award ceremony scheduled to take place at the Jerma Beach Hotel in Kololi tomorrow.
