Namutebi, a prominent member of the national boxing team known as the Bombers, and Kugonza, a rising star in the Uganda Boxing Champions League, faced stiff competition from Nigerian opponents.

Kugonza battled Pamilerin Akintayo, while Namutebi squared off against Blessing Oben. Both Ugandan fighters emerged victorious, winning their respective matches on points and solidifying their dominance in the ring.

These victories are not merely individual triumphs but a significant milestone for women’s boxing in Uganda.

Namutebi and Kugonza’s success has inspired a new wave of female boxers and highlighted the growing prominence of women in the sport.

Their historic wins at the Africa Military Games have brought immense pride to Uganda and paved the way for more women to pursue their boxing dreams with renewed vigor.
