Lekie FF’s goal poacher, Marie Gisele Ngah Manga has vowed to work harder and come back stronger after her omission from Cameroon’s final squad for the 2023 FIFA women’s World Cup playoffs.

“I came back to Cameroon at the end of the contract, though the club wanted me to stay longer after qualifying them. But considering certain conditions, I decided to return. I came across Lekie’s project,” she continued.
She is the reference of Lekie’s good signings this season, not forgetting the signing of Tabe Brenda for over two million CFA.
The club equally spent huge sums to grab players from defending and other former champions, which is now evident as the club remains unbeaten since the start of the league.
“I am very satisfied with Lekie Filles and the results we have had so far. The team is in a good state of mind we are very serene, focused and determined for the future,”
Lekie’s new lady have represented Cameroon’s U17 women’s National team and still dreams of going further.
