Uganda Cranes takes on Tanzania in the Afcon qualifiers match at Namboole this afternoon.
According to a press release from Police, political party colours will not be allowed in Namboole stadium.
Police argues that football is a unifying game thus fans out to keep away politics and political party slogans at the match.
This however, leaves fans in a dilemma. Since Uganda Cranes signed a deal with Airtel, the national team went from donning prominently yellow, the colour of their previous sponsor (MTN) to red (Airtel ) for home games.
The red jerseys have since become the team’s home outfit with white as the away jersey.
Also both colours make part of the national colours; black, yellow and red.
During the Togikwatako campaign, police blocked a number of fans wearing red from watching a Cranes game.
The red colour of late has been popularised by the ‘People Power ‘ pressure group loyal to Kyadondo East MP Robert Kyagulanyi Sentamu aka Bobi Wine.
We await to see how police handles the situation.
