Renowned Ugandan sports commentator Jermaine Egesa has been selected to lead the official English-language world feed commentary for the upcoming CAF African Nations Championship (CHAN) matches hosted at Namboole Stadium.
This landmark appointment solidifies his status as the nation’s top commentator and marks a significant moment for Ugandan sports broadcasting. The CAF world feed is the official broadcast distributed across Africa and internationally, and Egesa stands as the only Ugandan on a prestigious team that includes seasoned voices like Duane Dell’Oca and Charley Marinos.
His journey to this global platform began with a standout debut on the world feed during CHAN 2022 in Algeria. His impressive performance there led to further high-profile assignments, including the AFCON 2023 tournament in Ivory Coast and the CAF Confederation Cup Final. CAF's continued trust in Egesa underscores his ability to deliver insightful and engaging commentary that resonates with diverse international audiences.
At home, Egesa is a household name on NBS Sport, covering a wide range of sports and hosting the popular football analysis show, Pavilion.
As CHAN unfolds on home soil, his prominent role not only celebrates his achievement but also places Uganda firmly on the continent’s sports broadcasting map, inspiring a new generation of local talent.
