Life threat:

Despite the awesome programs he has had for his people in Kasangati and generally Wakiso district, Nkugwa has people who loathe him to the brim, to the extent of threatening his life.

“My life is at threat. There are people who are anti-developmental and believe otherwise in life termination. Perhaps, I remain strong and will serve my people against all the odds” he adds.

He boldly envisages sports an avenue of employment for all sportsmen to promote self-sustainability since sports disciplines in the country are running towards the professional lane at lightening pace.

Nkugwa therefore urges politicians to front sports at all times to develop this vital sub-sector.
