Kabuura, the Head of Sports at NBSport Uganda, revealed that he will be leading coverage of the world’s biggest football tournament alongside some of the game’s most renowned legends, bringing the action to millions of viewers across Africa.

The expanded 48-team FIFA World Cup kicks off today with hosts Mexico facing South Africa in Mexico City. The tournament will feature a record 104 matches and will be staged across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
For Kabuura, the appointment represents yet another opportunity to showcase Ugandan excellence on the global stage.
