Ultimate Guide to Uganda Premier League matchday one

By
Our Reporter
-

The most bizarre and anticipated season in Uganda football toptier’s history, the first league game at now artificial Lugogo pitich, an aging scoring specialist in Bokota Kamana to take aim and the West Nile territory newcomers Onduparaka dreaming of victory.

Uganda Premier League 2016 starts in a few hours at 4:00pm live on Azam TV. Here is your ultimate guide to the matchday one!

Sponsorship deals have been signed, and season and club membership cards launched. Some coaches and players, too, have since changed loyalties.

KCCA, who also launched a season ticket worth Shs300,000, have led the way in the build-up to the 2016/2017 Azam Uganda Premier League (UPL) season, adding Britam and Prime Media to the list of sponsors that include Star Times.

Onduparaka have also since secured a Shs180m shirt sponsorship deal with Betway, while Bright Stars announced sponsors, Lato Milk, in a two-year pact reported to be Shs130m.As if not to be left out, Hema Water joined a partnership with URA.

SC Villa, who have Star Timers on a five-year deal, managed to keep in the media by snapping musicians Winnie Nwagi, Irene Ntale and Leila Kayondo in an ambassadorial role, something Express did earlier with earlier Bobi Wine, and Vipers with radio presenter Abbey Mukiibi. We could go on and on.

Yet time for all the hype and trash talk in the media must take a break now, if only for 90 minutes.

The trigger to the new campaign goes off with eight fixtures across the country on Friday. Surely that should quench domestic football’s three-month thirst, at least for the start.

Coaches move

The season starts with some changes on the technical benches, with Abdallah Mubiru taking over at Vipers and Mujib Kasule returning to the Proline dugout due to Baker Mbowa lack of the required topflight qualification.

It is the same coaching qualification story at Onduparaka, where veteran Leo Adraa has replaced Allan Kabonge, the man who brought the Arua side to the Premier League.

Paddy Kintu, formerly of relegated Maroons, has also since moved to Lweza, where ex-SC Villa coach Ibrahim Kirya is the technical director.

Former SC Villa striker and URA coach, Alex Isabirye, has taken over at newly promoted Kirinya-Jinja SS, while Frank ‘Video’ Anyau assumes the former’s role at Bul.

Ex-Proline and KCCA Coach Abdallah Mubiru is now in charge of Vipers assisted by his former boss, George ‘Best’ Nsimbe.

Morley Byekwaso, the ex-SCVU and Simba coach, also joined his former club KCCA as manager Mike Mutebi’s assistant, replacing Sam Ssimbwa, who was sacked mid-way last season.

Cameras, lights, action

Much attention will inevitably be at the Phillip Omondi Stadium, Lugogo, where champions KCCA begin their title defence against JMC Hippos.

League newcomers, Onduparaka, at home to Soana in Arua should provide an electric atmosphere. You don’t expect less from a side that were synonymous with filling stadiums last season. They also filled their Green Light Ground duering a pre-season friendly against Maroons.

But it is not just about KCCA and Onduparaka. Eight matches are lined up on the day, with all 16 clubs in action. Below we break it down for you.

KCCA vs JMC Hippos

Knowing that pressure will be on him to both defend the title and impress in the Caf Champions League, manager Mike Mutebi went for youth and experience in his recruitment. He brought back Brian Majwega from Simba in Tanzania and Denis Rukundo (Maroons), as well as the tested legs of Vincent Kayizzi (Express) and Geoffrey Sserunkuma (Lweza). It is these and Muzamir Mutyaba in the midfield that he will rely on to hold off a James Odoch-coached JMC Hippos at Lugogo. Odoch added in his ranks Herbert Kakande, a defender acquired from Kakamega in Kenya. He will need that defence.

Bul vs Proline

Anyau has beefed up his Bul squad with prospects like Paul Mujampwani from Bugembe Junior and Tibita Hamisi from his junior side. But the experienced coach also knows that experience will come in handy, the reason he brought Edgar Lusige from Sadolin, Andrew Kalule (SCVU) and Hassan Musana from Bright Stars among others. On the other hand, Mujib Kasule has promoted a big number of youngsters from the Proline academy. He has also brought on board Farouk Musisi (Lweza), Sam Kintu (Express), defender Yusuf Mukisa (Vipers) and former KCCA striker Nelson Ssenkatuka among others. Kasule will want to secure early points to avoid early jitters when Proline travel to Kakindu in Jinja.

Express vs Lweza

The Red Eagles have an outlook of a collection centre of sorts. Coach Wasswa Bbosa’s Express have four rejects from KCCA including striker Herman Wasswa, midfield player Sam Ssenkoomi, Emmanuel Opio and Isaac Sserunkuma. Vipers’ trio of John Semazzi, Mike Mutyaba and Allan Kyambadde also form part of the otherwise experienced party that should be able to fashion a result off Lweza in the Wankulukuku derby. Yet Lweza also ooze promise having brought in veteran coach, Kintu, and Kirya from Villa. Kintu has since boosted his squad with Owen Kasule (KCCA), Karim Ndugwa and James Kasibante (all SC Villa) among others.

Kirinya Jinja vs URA

Coach Kefa Kisala’s URA take a shot trip to Bugembe Stadium to face newcomers, Kirinya-Jinja SS, knowing anything less than a trophy this season will have his employers’ heads turning. With last season’s marksman Robert Ssentongo all but out, Kisala went foreign; bringing in Bokota Kamana (Rwanda) and Nigerians Emmanuel Ibe Obina (Mathare Utd) and Harry Gentle Frank (Sofapaka) among others. URA will hope to contain the pressure that normally comes with teams braced for relegation skirmishes. Jinja have indeed braced themselves for the fight by bringing in experience in Edward Kakembo (Soana), John Wakalayita, David Kiiza, Mike Kawooya (all Bul) and Caesar Sapeo (SCVU) among others.

Police vs SC Villa

With a new man, Deo Sserwada, at the helm, SC Villa will hope to hit the ground running. The 16-time league champions have struggled to add to the tally since 2004, and club president Ben Misagga has changed coaches six times in his three years in charge. He has also changed players in the same fashion. Hardly impressive! Alex Kitata (Saints), Bernard Muwanga, Joseph Nsubuga (Bright Stars) and Vitali Tabu (Onduparaka), are some of the new names at Villa and should have a runout when Sserwadda takes his team to Kavumba to face Police. Coach Sam Timbe’s Police have had a quiet transfer activity up until now, with ex-Bright Stars striker Anthony Bongole the only noticeable acquisition. But having lost few, Police should give Villa some shove.

Vipers SC vs Bright Stars

 Abdallah Mubiru begins his reign at Vipers knowing club owner and former Fufa president, Lawrence Mulindwa, will accept nothing but the league title and a sustained run in the Caf Confederations Cup. Assistant coach, George Nsimbe’s shortfalls both in the league and on the continent last season saw him lose the job to his former junior at KCCA. Now they will have to pull together to keep in the boss’ good books. The two-time league champions open their account at home to depleted Bright Stars. With last season’s lead scorer (16 goals) Erisa Ssekisambu abroad for greener pastures, Mubiru has turned to former Soana striker Musa Esenu to address the goal-scoring question. Ibrahim Kayiwa (Express) and Brian Kakaire (Vaxjo Football – Sweden) have also since been added on. In the same vein, Mubiru has released Mike Mutyaba, Allan Kyambadde and John Ssemazi (all Express) among others. Fred Kajoba’s Bright Stars, who have lost most of their experienced stars like goalkeeper Mathias Kigonya (Sofapaka), Anthony Bongole (Police), Bernard Muwanga and Joseph Nsubuga (all SC Villa), could struggle to get out of the blocks despite bringing in Nicholas Ssebwato (from SC Villa), Andrew Kaggwa (Saints).

Onduparaka vs Soana

Last season’s biggest story for reaching the Uganda Cup for final, earning promotion and filling stadiums with huge crowds, Onduparaka start the season as the people’s darling. Whoever visits Arua will surely find out how intimidating the home side can be.  Soana, whose coach Charles Ayiekoh resigned last Friday, are the first to visit coach Leo Adraa’s men. Onduparaka have managed to maintain almost their entire team, only losing out Vitali Tabu (SC Villa) and Nafian Alionzi. The Northern side have since added Dickens Okwi, Mahad Kisekka, Emmanuel Olinga, Peter Duzman and Simon Olema to their ranks. Soana have lost marksman Esenu to Vipers but have brought in Cameroonian Oliviere Akono, Emma Kalyowa (Lweza) and experienced striker Frank Kalanda from URA.

The Saints vs Sadolin Paints

The Saints have since been bought by relegated Simba but will most likely maintain the same for at least a season. Coach Moses Basena remains coach, for now, and will have to get a way of picking 25 players from Saints and Simba squads. They host their first match at Bombo Barracks against Sadolin, who will hope the home side are still be in disarray. Coached by Abdul-Samadu Musafiri, Sadolin have only goalkeeper Franco Oringa, from Bul, as the main acquisition.

Touch my electricity and feel the heat, Museveni tells Besigye

By
Shawn Davis Kawalya

President Yoweri Museveni

President Yoweri Museveni has challenged his political nemesis Kizza Besigye to touch on electricity wires and see if he isn’t electrocuted.

President Museveni told a rally of National Resistance Movement (NRM) supporters in the recently created Omoro district that the opposition and more so Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) kingpin Kizza Besigye should test his achievement by touching on electricity wires.

Mr Museveni is currently in Omoro to campaign for the NRM Candidates for both Woman Member of Parliament and chairman LCV seats. Opposition has often times contested programmes initiated by President Museveni as non-viable.

“Opposition and Besigye (Kizza) say government has done nothing. Let them touch these electricity wires and if they survive, vote them” the president said.

In reply to President Museveni, Dr.Besigye said Museveni should be ashamed that under his administration of 30 years, it is only 7 per cent of the population that can afford power, meaning majority are poor.

“Let him show houses that use electricity in those areas? Homes that use power (electricity) are a mere 7 per cent meaning that our people cannot afford the price of power. Anyway, Mr Museveni is like a hunter who goes hunting and has never captured any animal and if he kills a bird, the whole world will know” Dr. Besigye said.

Besigye urges citizens to arrest elusive police officer Baguma

CLEARED OF MURDER CHARGES: Former CPS DPC Aaron Baguma

Who will ‘police the police’ is the question on many people’s lips as several people bay for the blood of a senior police officer accused of complicity in murder?

Opposition Forum for Democratic Change leader Dr Warren Kizza Besigye seems to have an answer; the four-time presidential challenger has called upon Ugandans to stand up for their rights and arrest Superintendent of Police (SP) Aaron Baguma, who is wanted by court in connection with the murder of city businesswoman Donah Katushabe.

And Dr Besigye’s clarion call to Ugandans comes in the wake of police failing to produce SP Baguma, a former District Police Commander (DPC) at the Central Police Station in Kampala, who has since become rarified specie, holed up at a police training college on the outskirts of Kampala city, a place where he was loathed and respected in equal measure.

“Since the police has neglected the directives of another arm of government (judiciary), the citizens of Uganda can now take up the matter and arrest Baguma; in any case, the case is Uganda versus Baguma,” Dr Besigye said of Baguma’s case that has elicited a lot of anxiety since the killing of Ms Katushabe in 2015.

He added: “It is a very silly precedent, people who should be in law enforcement are the ones breaking it and this means that the State is a failure.”

Ms Katushabe was reportedly killed by a group of people led by city businessman Muhammad Sebuwufu, a dealer in second hand cars and owner of Pine car bond on Lumumba Road,  after the deceased failed to clear a debt of Shs9 million.

Following the killing, Katushabe’s relatives swung into action and ensured Sebuwufu was arrested and remanded to Luzira prison. However, Baguma, most probably using his powerful connections and influence, has since evaded arrest, prompting Katushabe’s relatives to protest to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Mike Chibita wa Duallo, who in turn wrote to the police asking them to ensure Baguma faces the law. But in the midst of all the hullabaloo, police chief General Kale Kayihura reshuffled his officers in the Kampala Metropolitan Police (KMP) area, in the process sending Baguma for a six-month ‘refresher’ course at the Police Senior Command and Staff College (PSCSC), Bwebajja, along Entebbe Road.

Meanwhile, as the behind-the-scenes cat and mouse game ensued the judiciary set in motion, summoning Baguma to the Buganda Road magistrate’s court, which he has failed to do. And today, the court issued an arrest warrant for the now elusive police officer.

By press time, the Eagleonline was not able to establish whether the police would react to Baguma’s arrest warrant, or whether the force would wait for option ‘B’, Dr Besigye’s call to citizens to arrest Baguma.

Museveni meets EALA Speaker Kidega

Our Reporter and Agencies

President Yoweri Museveni addresses a previous EALA session sitting in Kampala, Uganda. Seated right is the EALA Speaker Rt. Hon. Dan Fred Kidega.

President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni says the region is committed to full regional integration and wants the East Africa Legislative Assembly (EALA) to sensitize citizens on the benefits.

Meeting the EALA Speaker Dan Fred Kidega at State House Entebbe last night, Museveni said the EAC would arrive at the political federation as the ultimate pillar of integration.

In his submissions the Speaker urged President Museveni to enhance efforts to ensure stability and normalcy resumes in Burundi, and gave a detailed account of EALA’s involvement in seeking for solutions in troubled East African country.

“I and the Assembly request you to intensively focus on Burundi to restore normalcy,” Speaker Kidega implored Mr Museveni, who is also the mediator of the Burundi peace process.

The Speaker also told Mr Museveni that EALA was demanding for an independent inquiry into the death of former EALA member Hafsa Mossi, who was killed in Bujumbura on July 13, 2016.

On South Sudan, the Speaker sounded the Assembly’s concern over recent developments, while affirming that resolving challenges in the sister Partner States was part and parcel of enhancing the spirit of integration.

On the precarious funding situation at the EAC, Rt Hon Kidega said it was now time for the bloc to embrace sustainability mechanisms as a key survival strategy.

“The Summit has agreed in principle that EAC adopts an alternative funding strategy and that such be pursued to ensure sustainability.  The Council of Ministers is reviewing the options – but the pace is indeed slow. Excellency, we plead that the matter be fast tracked”, Rt Hon Kidega said.

At its meeting in Arusha last week, the EAC’s Finance and Administration Committee urged Uganda, Burundi and Tanzania to settle their arrears and the instalments of the contribution for the current financial year to ease the liquidity challenges.

The Speaker further urged the region to review its stance on the Economic Partnership Agreements (EPAs) given the recent developments in global trade.

“Excellency, the region is seized of the matter of the EPAs given a number of recent developments.  The main one concerns the Brexit and its implications which we as a region need to take cognisance of.  The other concerns the decision by the EU to embargo/blockade the Republic of Burundi from enjoying the benefits of trade.  EALA has enacted Trade Negotiations Act, 2008 that among other things calls for joint negotiations of Treaties that are of benefit to the bloc”, the Speaker said.  

He remarked that the region would be unable to favourably compete if the subsidies on Agriculture on EU products.

As part of ensuring investor confidence in the region, the Speaker informed President Museveni that EALA was keen on enacting legislation that safeguards interests of investors and provides for compensation in event of damage.  On the other hand, such a law should ensure safeguard of local content in terms of use of materials, manpower and technology transfer among other areas.

Responding to the Speaker’s submissions on regional economic development, President Museveni said the EAC region was on verge of economic take-off and that a breakthrough would be realised by extending exports and diversification of products beyond the EU markets.

RIO 2016: 3,000 Olympic steeplechase champ disqualified

DISQUALIFIED: Former Olympic champion Ezekiel Kemboi

The immediate former 3,000 steeplechase Olympic champion Ezekiel Kemboi of Kenya is out of contention for the third gold in the discipline after the IAAF ruled he had breached race rules by stepping off the track.

‘Under race rules, runners cannot step off the inside edge of the track when running around bends,’ the IAAF appeal jury ruled in respect to a complaint lodged by Frenchman Mahedini Mekhissi against the double Olympic gold medalist Kemboi. Mekhissi was elevated, earning a bronze medal in the race that was eventually won by Kemboi’s compatriot Consenslus Kipruto.

Meanwhile, on Sunday, August 21 Ugandan marathon Olympic champion Stephen Kiprotich will take to the streets of Rio de Janeiro to defend his title, won in London in 2012. The Olympic and World champion leads a three-man team that includes Jackson Kiprop and Solomon Mutai.

Sixty ‘Bridge’ schools to be closed – Janet Museveni

By
Peter Etiang
-
First Lady and Minister for Education and Sports, Janet Museveni.

Sixty three nursery and primary institutions run by Bridge International Academies (BIA), a ‘for profit’ educational network operating in Uganda, are to be closed by September.

The announcement made recently in Parliament by education minister Janet Kataha Museveni, will affect about 12,000 children, who have to look for new schools beginning next term. According to Ms. Museveni, the schools, where pupils pay about US$5, are not following the guidelines as set by the Ministry of Education and Sports.

According to Ms. Museveni, the lives of the 12.000 pupils at the BIA schools had been ‘endangered’, with most of the schools operating under poor sanitary and infrastructural conditions. Further, the schools reportedly employ ‘unqualified’ teachers, ostensibly to cut down on operating costs, and that they also offer an obscure curriculum, not in tandem with the official one followed by other public schools.

The schools, all operating in areas where access to education is a thorny issue, are being funded and supported by among others the US government, the World Bank and, billionaires Bill Gates of Microsoft, Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook and eBay auction Chairman, Pierre Omidyar.

In Africa BIA operates schools in Uganda, Kenya and Liberia, and in a statement by Michael Kaddu, the BIA head of corporate and public affairs in Uganda, the decision will also affect about 800 workers in the country.

Education inspection in Uganda is questionable and just a week ago ministry authorities established that pupils at the Greenhill Academy Buwaate campus had been exposed to erogenous material, prompting reaction by infuriated parents.

A teacher by profession, Janet Museveni was appointed education minister by her husband President Yoweri Museveni in June this year, and her appointment elicited mixed reactions, with some saying she would realign the ministry for better results. Others however, criticized her appointment, saying the job should have been given to a seasoned teacher with practical professional experience.

Meanwhile, this is not the first time BIA schools run into trouble with authorities in the East African region; previously the network has had problems with the Kenyan government which issued new guidelines under which the schools, that enroll about 100.000 pupils in the EA giant economy, can operate.

EVACUATED: The statement announcing Dr Riek Machar's departure from South Sudan.

South Sudan’s former vice president and opposition leader Riek Machar has left the country for an unspecified ‘safe’ neighboring state, opposition officials have said. The move comes several weeks after he withdrew from the capital, Juba, during fierce fighting with government troops.

“He has now been safely evacuated to a safe country within the region. He will hold a press conference within the next 24 hours,” Mabior Garang de Mabior, a spokesman for Machar’s SPLM-IO party, said in a statement.

Gatdek Dak, Machar’s personal spokesman, said opposition fighters had “successfully relocated our leader to a neighboring country where he will now have unhindered access to the rest of the world and the media,” a statement posted on Facebook said.

Civil war broke out in South Sudan in late 2013 when President Salva Kiir accused Machar, his former deputy, of plotting a coup. The fighting split the country along ethnic lines and drove it to the brink of collapse. Conflict flared up against last month when a power-sharing agreement collapsed.

During last month’s deadly violence, men in military uniforms rampaged through Juba, attacking local civilians and foreign aid workers. UN peacekeepers have been criticized for not intervening to protect civilians and foreigners and the UN says it is investigating the claims.

The UN Security Council approved a US-drafted resolution last week to strengthen the 12,000-person peacekeeping mission with 4,000 additional troops drawn from the regional armies and equipped with more aggressive mandate.. But the South Sudan government has so far not accepted them,

Machar has previously said he would not return to Juba until the extra peacekeepers are deployed.

Lutheran body donates Shs 800million to Uganda Red Cross

By
Our Reporter
-
Kenneth Barigye, LWR Country boss addresses the press on Wednesday during the handover at the Red Cross at their offices in Rubaga.

Lutheran World Relief(LWR) has today handed over items worth over 250,000 USD (Approx UGX 800,000,000) to Uganda Red Cross Society.

The donations that include 160 Bales of Blankets and 220 cartons of school kits among others were handed over to the Secretary General of the Red Cross at their offices in Rubaga.

The donation comes at a time when Uganda is facing an influx of refugees and asylum seekers fleeing conflict in South Sudan. It has been reported that over 70,000 South Sudanese refugees displaced by violence crossed the border into Uganda in July, according to the United Nations refugee agency (UNHCR). The agency says that it is registering over 1,000 South Sudanese each day.

This crisis has severely stretched the capacity of Uganda’s refugee centres and constrained the country in terms of providing social services, food, health, education, water and sanitation services to the refugees and therefore any help accorded by donors goes a long way in making a huge impact to the refugees.

While addressing the press during the handover of the items at the Uganda Red Cross offices in Rubaga, Kenneth Barigye, the Lutheran World Relief Country Director said, “We at Lutheran are happy that we are able to contribute even so little to help make the lives of those fleeing violence a little better away from their homes.”

According to Robert Kwesiga, the Secretary General-Uganda Red Cross Society, these donations will benefit the refugees surviving in refugee Camps in Yumbe & ‘Adjumani. “Many refugees who recently moved from South Sudan are camping in the different settlements, and they need our support. More so, we have shifted some to Yumbe to decongest the settlements in Adjumani. These donations we believe will benefit especially those recently shifted since they are in a more –hard to reach area, and as they settle in, we hope to distribute these items to them to enable them live a fairly decent life.”

Since 1985, LWR has been working with local partners in Uganda to address the root causes of poverty and improve the livelihoods of people in the community. “In making this donation to The Red Cross, we continue with our work of trying to improve the lives of people. We hope these items will provide emergency relief and support the camp’s crowded schools and health centres,” said Barigye.

“The scholastic materials will support children as they enroll in schools next term. Thank you LWR, and we pray that more partners will come on board and trust us with more resources to meet the needs of these vulnerable people,” Kwesiga said.
