    Sad weekend: Former FUFA boss Segwanga Musisi passes on, Executive Member Ogwel loses wife

    The local football fraternity is in deep sorrow this weekend following the sad news of the loss of former FUFA President and CECAFA Life Member Mzee Kezekiah Segwanga Musisi who passed away last night.

    On the same weekend, FUFA Executive member Dr. Patrick Bernard Ogwel lost his wife Dorcus Anume who died this morning at Nsambaya Hospital. She was under observation by the medical team following an accident last week in Lubowa along Entebbe road. She suffered a serious injury on her spinal cord.

    Musisi passes on

    Segwanga Musisi was FUFA President from between 1972 and 1974. He was also a CECAFA Life member at the time of his death.

    ‘It is double tragedy for Ugandan football. Losing two people attached to football on the same weekend. We know how much Ugandan football has grown in leaps and bounds under the guidance of Mze Musisi. Football around this region is incomplete without Mzee Segwanga Musisi’ said FUFA President Eng. Moses Magogo on receiving the news.

    Dr. Ogwel loses wife

    Ogwel’s wife was admitted at Nsambya Hospital following an accident last week in Lubowa. She was due for an operation on Tuesday at the same hospital but passed on this morning.

    ‘We know how much Ogwel’s wife has been supportive to Ugandan football. Ogwel dedicates a lot of time to football assignments and that shows you how much his wife has been supporting him’ said FUFA President who heads the Executive where Ogwel is a member.

    FUFA is deeply saddened by the news and we pray that the Almighty God keeps the families of Mzee Kezekiah Segwnaga Musisi and Dr. Ogwel strong during this trying time.

    Burial arrangements will be communicated later.

    May their souls Rest in Eternal peace.

    Uganda Cranes goal keeper Denis Onyango has applauded FUFA’s gesture to reward him with a plot of land and believes it will go along way in inspiring and motivating youngsters to work hard.

    The award to Onyango was after the South African side Mamelodi Sundown won the CAF Champions Legaue-with Onyango becoming the first Ugandan player to lift the title. The player was taken on a guided tour of the land which is located in Mukono district off the Mukono-Kayunga road by FUFA Partners Canaan Sites on Thursday afternoon. FUFA was represented by Marketing Officer Hassan Mugerwa.

    Edmund Mutebi of Canaan Sites with Onyango in Mukono

    Canaan Sites Sales and Marketing Manager Edmund Mutebi also made the trip where the land is located-Middleton Canaan Sites Estaes-Kiswera off Mukono-Kayunga road.

    ‘We are strong partners in football development and we believe this land will help Onyango use it tohis best. We want to see players happy. We partnered with FUFA to make Onyango happy after his achievements last year’ said Mutebi.

    This is your land-Mutebi tells Onyango with clear directions in Mukono

Just keep the spirit and continue working hard. After what we saw we believe we can still qualify again in 2019 and this time round go further’ said Ghosh
