“Nakivubo Stadium is not just a sports facility; it is a landmark that holds decades of memories and national pride. Renaming it disregards the history it represents,” Lukwago Stated.
The suggestion to rename the stadium has sparked mixed reactions among the public. While some believe that a new name would signify the stadium’s modernisation and private investment, others, like Lukwago, argue that the original name should be preserved as a tribute to the iconic sports venue’s legacy.
