Following his sacking as the Uganda National Netball team head coach, Fred Mugerwa has rejected a sendoff allowance amounting to Shs 1 millon.

With just three weeks left to the kickoff of the Netball world cup, Mugerwa was relieved of his duties as the She Cranes head coach and replaced with Rashid Mubiru, an assistant at St Mary’s Kitende. The Uganda Netball Federation (UNF), offered Mugerwa Shs 1M in cash on his day of being sacked with the balance promised to be paid later but he refused to take the payment.

According to the Daily Monitor, Mugerwa’s offer, who happened to be in camp on Saturday, came after the new coach had been presented to the players at GEMS Cambridge International School in Butabika.

“Mwanja called me aside and the two of us sat on the bench. He said, ‘look, I have been told to give you this money. There was money in an envelope, he said it was Shs1m”, Mugerwa revealed to the Daily Monitor.

He added, “I asked him what the money was for. He said that this was the allowances that I might probably have worked for.

“He said that it is supposed to be Shs1.4m but at the moment they were only giving me Shs1m. I declined to take the money.

“I then told him that since we started training last November, I have spent a lot of money and I don’t think the Shs1m is equivalent to my work.

“What I want is, let’s get down to the breakdown of the budget you people made for the World Cup and see how much I’m supposed to get, and then you pay me what you owe me. He also said that the executive had decided that I cease coming to the camp.”

Mugerwa has been the national team coach since 1998
