The National Council of Sports team headed by its General Secretary, Bulamagi Nicholas had appeared before this committee for an interface.

Uganda sent a team of 20 participants in three sports disciplines that included Athletics, Boxing and Swimming but none of them fetched a medal for the country.

The MPs demanded to know the level of preparation and training the participants had been offered before they set off because this could have been a big obstacle to their performance.
