Speaker Among meets U. A. E ambassador on sports issues.

Meeting between Speaker Among and UAE Ambassador to boost Sports

The Speaker of Parliament Anita Among has called upon investors to take keen interest in the conducive investment environment that Uganda offers, to develop the sports sector that is still lacking in the country.

She added that Uganda has great potential in the sporting discipline, that remains untapped because of lack of infrastructure to provide world-class training and support to talented sportspersons.

‘’We have so many talented young men and women who can even represent us on the international scene, but because we lack the infrastructure such as stadia, Netball, Volleyball courts and runways, we cannot compete favorably with the rest of the world,’’ she said while meeting Uganda’s Ambassador to the United Arab Emirates H.E Abdalla AlShamsi at Parliament on Monday May 15th.

The meeting, which was attended by Bugiri Municipality MP Asuman Basalirwa and Rwampara constituency MP Amos Knakunda, among other.
