“My focus would not just be on the treasury. I pray going forward at least for this position if it’s just going to be left for women to contest for it I think it would be the best way to allow more ladies or women to come on board sports…I will use my position to reach out to more ladies” she said and thanked New GBBA President Van-Ess for bringing her on his team.
