Gambian wrestling national team captain Leket Bu Barra has sealed a spot in the semi-finals in the 86 category Lekett Bu Barraof Burr Promotion Mbapat event.

The Barra-born arena ace opened his first account of the new wrestling season with a win over Autorai.

Beb Amaa, Top-5, Eumue Saine, Boy London and Robel have also sailed past the first hurdle.

Total package for prizes hits up D200, 000, the fattest of any prize in the arena of recent.
