The Federation for Uganda Football Associations has set a Saturday August 21, 2021 as the day for the body’s Presidential elections.

The elections which pit the incumbent Eng. Moses Magogo against two rivals including shadow sports minister Allan Ssewanyana and Proline FC proprietor Mujib Kasule will be hosted in Mbale.

This will be the 97th time FUFA is holding its Ordinary and Elective Assembly which is charged with the election of the President.
