The Ambassador, a retired Brigadier General, visited the team on 27th April 2026 as they prepared to face their Ivorian counterparts, the Young Elephants, in two scheduled fixtures on 27 and 30 April.
During the visit, Ambassador Abu urged the players to prioritise teamwork and unity, stressing the importance of collective effort over individual brilliance. He encouraged them to approach the matches with confidence, discipline and determination.
