Fufa officials

By James Robert Kayindi

The Federation of Uganda Football Association (FUFA) President Eng. Moses Magogo has hailed the support of the H.E President Yoweri Kaguta Musevini that he rendered to the Uganda Cranes during their recently failed qualifying campaign for the Africa Cup of Nations.

In a press conference at the FUFA house in Mengo yesterday, Magogo also threw a vote of thanks to all other entities that rendered their support for the national football team during the campaign.

His speech reads in part:

“Although Uganda will take another painful wait to compete at the finals of the Africa Cup of Nations, I take the opportunity to thank the following;
HE the President of the Republic of Uganda Yoweri Kaguta Museveni
Various officials and organs of the Government of Uganda
Our Sponsors; Airtel, Nile Breweries and NIC
The FUFA Excom, Staff and Officials
The Head Coach, Technical and Support Personnel of the Uganda Cranes
The players for gallant performances that was exhibited
The fans for the unending support and belief
The Media for their role as the 4th estate
Any other persons and organization not mentioned that helped with the completion of the campaign.”

He also cautioned FUFA critics and the entire football fraternity not to judge them by their failed campaign but rather to look at the bigger picture of building the game of football in the country.

“In my manifesto and through various communications, FUFA has been categorical that performance should not be judged by qualification to AFCON but creating a foundation for the future qualification and eventual winning of the AFCON itself,” Magogo remarked. “At the end of the 19th unsuccessful qualification campaign, the Country needs to take a deep sigh and understand why the campaigns have not been successful. We have changed Country and FUFA Presidents, Ministers, Coaches, Players, Media Personnel and fans but there has been one constant – failure to qualify.”
