"The party continues to congratulate the Uganda Cranes upon making it to the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) after a period of over 30 years," said the party spokesperson, Kenneth Paul Kakande on Tuesday.

Kakande said that the party will continue to support the Cranes with all necessary support pledging that they will do more than the pledged Sh500, 000 for each goal scored as the game continues.
