The Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA) Super League members held a successful extra ordinary general assembly at Mandela National Stadium on Friday, July 26, 2019.
The well attended assembly saw 15 out of the 16 members convene. Only newly promoted Kyetume FC missed with an apology.
Of the 15 members in attendance, only 13 were eligible to participate in the voting exercise because the two other newly promoted clubs (Proline and Wakiso Giants) have not been admitted as full members (until passed by the FUFA General Assembly).
Also in attendance was the FUFA CEO Edgar Watson, second Vice President Darius Mugoye, third Vice President Florence Nakiwala Kiyingi as well as Executive Committee members Hamid Juma and Ronnie Kalema.
The main objective of this extra ordinary assembly was to conduct the elections for members of the board, overseen by the FUFA Electoral commission’s team led by Yusuf Awuye.
The five board members; Arinaitwe Rugyendo, Humphrey Mandu Watenga, Ivan Fredrick “Guy” Kawuma, Peter Kibazo Kyasanku and David Sserebe Bunya all returned.
Mandu scored 13 votes out of expected 13. He was closely followed by Kibazo (12), Ruygendo and Serebe each tallied 11 votes, Kawuma had 7, Njuba with 6 and Daniel Kalinaki scored four votes.
Another candidate Dr. Azah Taibu from BUL Football Club pulled out of moments before the tranquil electoral process.
The board will be steer for another four years until 2022.
