Giving a sneak peek of his manifesto, Mujib said he would first focus on the local league to make it strong and consequently this would ensure the national team reciprocates the same.

He said this would also ensure more funding to the game of football in Uganda.

Mujib, as he is commonly referred to in the football circles becomes the second person to express interest in challenging Moses Magogo as FUFA president after Makindye West MP Allan Ssewanyana also announced his bid.

In 2017, Mujib announced his bid to challenge Magogo but he was disqualified from the race after failure to comply with the required guidelines according to the FUFA Electoral Code.

Mujib  has since accused Magogo of manipulating the system to kick him out of the race to ensure he returns unopposed.
