However, Nakidde faced challenges during the event, particularly due to a shoulder injury. “The injury made it tough for me out there,” she admitted, highlighting the physical toll of competitive weightlifting.
In other weight categories, Uganda has also seen success, clinching a silver medal in the 55kg weight category. The impressive performance included a bronze medal in the snatch event, with a lift of 90kg, and a silver medal in the clean & jerk, hoisting 120kg.
Looking ahead, Steven Ojede is set to compete in the 96kg category on Wednesday, March 13th, aiming to continue Uganda’s strong showing in the competition.
