MTN Uganda, in partnership with the Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA), officially launched the new Uganda Cranes jersey ahead of the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers. The jersey, prominently displaying the MTN Uganda logo, symbolizes the company’s strong support for the national team as they gear up for continental competition.
The unveiling ceremony was held at MTN Uganda’s headquarters in Kampala, attended by key officials from both MTN Uganda and FUFA, along with members of the Uganda Cranes.
Speaking at the event, Somdev Sen, MTN Uganda’s Chief Marketing Officer, highlighted the jersey’s representation of national pride and unity. He stated, “This jersey goes beyond being a piece of clothing; it embodies our collective identity and support for the Uganda Cranes. We’re excited to offer fans a modern and energetic jersey they can wear proudly during the AFCON qualifiers. We urge all Ugandans to get their jerseys, wear them with pride, and rally behind our team.”
Mr. Rogers Byamukama, FUFA ExCom member for Marketing, also praised the collaboration between MTN Uganda and Ugandan football. “This jersey captures the spirit and determination of the Uganda Cranes. As we approach the AFCON qualifiers, we call on Ugandans to wear the jersey and create a wave of unity and encouragement for the team,” Rogers said.
The new jersey is available for purchase at FUFA House and online via the Market by MoMo platform, MTN Uganda’s e-commerce solution. Through Market by MoMo, customers can enjoy home delivery in and around Kampala, making it more convenient to support the team.
The jersey comes in three color options—Black, Yellow, and White—with the following prices: the Match Day Jersey costs UGX 120,000, while the Replica Jersey – Cat 2 is UGX 50,000 (UGX 45,000 via Market by MoMo in September), and the Replica Jersey – Cat 3 is UGX 30,000 (UGX 25,000 via Market by MoMo in September).
