Lt. Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba has fully paid the hotel bills of Uganda Basketball team in Kigali after the hotel (Park Inn) had denied them exit due to an un cleared debt of sh188M.

Propagandists had disseminated misleading information attributing the cleared bill to President Paul of Rwanda. The basketball federation announced that Gen Muhoozi had personally given them sh188m they needed to settle hotel bills. “We thank you for loving and supporting Basketball. The future of the game is certainly bright,” FUBA said.

The Silverbacks, Uganda’s national basketball team currently in the Afro-Basketball championships in Kigali, Rwanda, became cash strapped while in Park Inn. The team was too broke that they were living on credit in the neighboring state.

In a letter from the President of Uganda’s Basketball’s Federation, Nasser Sserunjogi, he confirmed that FUBA and Rwanda gave them an ultimatum of Sunday 29^th August to clear all outstanding dues or face the embarrassment of being withdrawn for lack of money.

“We have run out of excuses and we are afraid of being embarrassed. We have tried as much as possible to keep this away from the team such that they can focus on playing the game, however, we have run out of time,” Sserunjogi said. He said they were afraid of the team is evicted on financial grounds, the country will be deeply embarrassed.
