FUFA yet to offer financial report on Namboole earnings

Almost three weeks since Uganda crushed out of next year’s Nations Cup qualifiers at the hands of champions, Zambia, the nation is yet to know how much revenue was accrued from gate collections.

As a norm after a major international game, Fufa usually announce earnings and expenditure from gate collections, which they did not do at their first news conference after the match on October 16.

Then, Fufa vice president finance Anthony Kimuli said the marketing team is collecting reports across the selling points, which we will have to harmonize with URA.

Since then, however, not much has happened, apart from news that Kimuli, who is supposed to provide it, is abroad.

And Fufa publicist Rogers Mulindwa’s communicated today that Kimuli will not be back in the country for at least the next two months means the nation will have to wait a little longer to know proceeds from Namboole.

Last year’s game between Uganda and Kenya recorded the highest returns ever, grossing 1billion shillings.
