Uganda Broadcasting Corporation (UBC) has announced that it will be unable to air the highly anticipated Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier match between Uganda Cranes and South Sudan, scheduled for today at Mandela National Stadium, Namboole.
In a statement issued earlier today, UBC management explained that their broadcasting partners were unable to provide the necessary parameters to ensure coverage of the match.
The issue is expected to persist until October 15, affecting the scheduled matches during this period.
UBC expressed its regret to fans and stakeholders, citing that efforts are underway to resolve the situation as soon as possible.
“We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience and are working closely with our partners to resolve the issue as soon as possible,” the statement read.
Fans seeking further information have been directed to reach UBC’s Public Relations Officer through contact details provided in the release.
This development has been met with disappointment by football fans, who were eager to watch the Uganda Cranes in action as they strive to qualify for the 2025 AFCON tournament. Many will now be waiting to see if the broadcaster manages to restore services for upcoming games.
UBC promised to keep stakeholders informed of any developments in the coming days.
