The Federation of Uganda Football
Associations (FUFA) has resolved to cancel football matches that will have been
confirmed to have been fixed, regardless of whether they are ongoing or due to
commence.
According to the Federation,
this is one of the new measures to combat the growing vice of
match-fixing in Uganda Football.
Denis Lukambi, the FUFA
legal manager announced the decision during their weekly press briefing at the
FUFA Complex in Mengo today. He explained that once FUFA gets information
on any fixed matches, it will take swift action to halt the game and fix those
already played for replay.
Furthermore, Lukambi stated that any football
club found to have participated in match-fixing will either face relegation or
be prohibited from identifying as a football club.
