Govt Releases Shs 2.4 Billion to Uganda Cranes for CHAN 2024 Heroics

The Minister of State for Sports, Peter Ogwanga, has confirmed the release of Shs 2.4 billion to the Uganda Cranes and their technical staff as a reward for their historic performance at the 2024 African Nations Championship (CHAN).

Speaking on the floor of Parliament, Ogwanga praised the national team for advancing to the quarterfinals for the first time in history after topping a tough group that included Algeria, South Africa, and Niger. Uganda eventually bowed out after a spirited fight against defending champions Senegal.

“This evening, I am happy to announce that the Shs 2.4 billion is no longer just a pledge it is now in the accounts of the players and the entire team that represented our country,” Ogwanga said, drawing applause from MPs.
