Last week, a delegation from the Confederation of African Football Federation (CAF) Inspection Team embarked on a visit to Uganda to assess the proposed venues for the AFCON 2027 Bid.

One of the key venues inspected was the Denver Godwin Stadium, a multi-purpose sports complex currently under construction in Katebe – Bugabo village, Garuga, located off Entebbe road in Katabi Town Council, Wakiso District.

Spread across close to 250 hectares, the construction of Denver Godwin Stadium began in 2019 but faced a temporary halt in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 lockdown, which restricted workers from accessing the site.

However, after the lockdown was lifted, Roko Construction Company Limited resumed work on the project.

The brainchild behind this multi-billion project is said to be David Kikomeko, based in South Africa, with several other silent stakeholders involved.

The complex, scheduled for completion in 2025, will have several facilities, including a football pitch, a running track, four training grounds, tennis courts, volleyball courts, and a netball court. Additionally, an Olympic-sized swimming pool will cater to aquatic sports enthusiasts.

Denver Godwin Stadium is expected to have a seating capacity of 45,000, making it a potential centerpiece for hosting high-profile sporting events.
