BRONZE MEDALISTS KYOBE, NKOBEZA DROPPED

Last year’s African championship bronze medalists Jonah Kyobe and Yusuf Nkobeza are not part of the team to be handled by AIBA one-star coach Twaibu Mayanja who takes over from Patrick Lihanda. He will be assisted by Don Ramathan Seguya also from Lukanga boxing club. Alex Muhangi the boxing federation president says that the federation is trying to extend international exposure to as many boxing personalities as possible.

“Winning a medal in the previous competition does not guarantee you a place on the national team. You must remain impressive in the subsequent competitions. About the coaches, the current policy is that the coach with most boxers at the national team takes charge since we have no permanent employed national team coach,” Muhangi reacts to the changes in the Bombers set up.
