Annette Rumanyika-Mulira, the Stanlib Uganda managing director noted;
Aside the overall crowns, we shall open two investment accounts worth Shs200,000 apiece for the winners. We are going to make this an annual event as we seek to cement a growing relationship with the golfing fraternity
Muhwezi said.
But I have to thank my playing partners Ashvin Kananathan, Duncan Kaggwa and Ernest Rukundo, who pushed me all the way and helped me return the best score of the day
The respective Group A, B and C winners; National Junior team star, Hassan Kiyemba (41), city lawyer David Nambale (39 c/b) and Robert Ntege (40) offered Muhwezi a challenge too but it was all in vain as they fell short.
