The member ofParliament of Makindye East,Chairman for Katwe FC and shadow minister of sports in parliament, enters the race for FUFA presidency.
Allan Ssewanyana also participated in the 2017 ,but his supporters were locked out and limit Allan to became the president of FUFA.
Allan Ssewanyana , at his office at Makindye today Monday 12th,April 2021, while addressed the media, confirmed his readiness.
“I am presenting myself as a candidate for the position of FUFA president at the next general assembly, we must make football an enjoyable environment for every stakeholder including myself, players,investors, coaches, sponsors, media and fans”, Allan confirmed his readiness to stand for the presidency for FUFA.
“You are all aware that I petitioned FIFA in May 2017 about Mr. Mose Magogo’s illegal resale of 2014 World cup tickets and investigations were opened against him on 23rd July 2018.
Magogo entered a plea bargain under Article 67 parpar.I of the FIFA code of Ethics statutes, this means that he pleaded guilty and entered a deal with FIFA for the purposes of obtaining a lenient sentence from FIFA”, Allan added.
Magogo fined ugx 37000,000 (CHF 10,000) and was banned from taking part in any kind of Football related activities at National and international level for two months.
Allan flunked by his lawyer Allan Mulindwa who is a sports lawyer and lover of the growth of the game just like him.
Before 10th December 2019, Mr. Magogo Moses defied the ban by attending a match at Mandela National stadium between Uganda cranes (2-0) win over Malawi .Through my lawyer Allan Mulindwa , I petitioned FIFA again and the matter went under investigations by FIFA through their correspondences and we are waiting for their decision.
However, Mulindwa Associates & CO . Advocates, I also locally petitioned the minister of Education and sports Hon Janet Muswveni .K who ordered the inspector General of government to investigate MR .Magogo Moses for re- sale of tickets.
Accountability is to report to those you are responsible to and for. Mr.Magogo has not in any way reported to those he is responsible to such as government, tax paywea while at the same time the footballers and administrators have suffered same fate.Thus means the FUFA’s system is not transparent and laws or statuses are only made to close out any possible challenges to presidency or accountability.
Over the years the National Council of Sports Regulations qeew not made to streamline registration , operations, structures and conduct of FUFA and other sports associations which created legal a lacuna and power strive in FUFA which administration was inherited by Magogo in 2013.
Government passed the regulations in 2014 which Magogo’s administration fought because they were harmonizing football and conduct of FUFA and thus led to civil cases in courts of law over legality of the establishment of FUFA and its legal registration.
But up to now, Magogo as a leader has failed to stir FUFA ahead out of these turbulent legal battles because he represents his interests and not those of the game and or FUFA.
