the truth is alot of the promotional information coming out is propaganda.if this stadium was done diligently why does CAF say its below standard. and who builds without following the guidelines expect thief, lier or incompetent build who makes a mistake but mistakes of this magnitude should be criminal. Ugandans shouldn’t be deceived
I can say the stadium is incomplete! “No shade!” Uganda is a pearl of Africa, blessed with abundant showers of rainfall..
Kudos to Hamza.
However, is the overall cost of the artificial turf, cheaper than a well maintained grass field?
