The absence of Uganda Cranes at the AFCON finals has not stopped the creation of openings for some Ugandans.

Experienced FUFA, CAF, and FIFA Security Expert Dixon Bond Okello has been voted the best security man at the 2021 AFCON finals in Cameroon.

Okello was among the nine Ugandans that were given assignments at the AFCON tournament that climaxed yesterday. Senegal beat Egypt on penalties to claim their first-ever AFCON title.

Okello has been in the ‘security limelight’ for a while now and he’s a certified FIFA and CAF football security officer who has taken charge of very high-level matches on the continent and the world at large.

The experienced security expert is a no-nonsense fellow, who is always bent on ensuring the security measures inside a stadium during a match are adhered to.

In 2019, he was assigned to head security at the AFCON final between Senegal and Algeria.
