Chief Guest of the day Hon. Rose Tumusiime hailed the youth for organizing the sports tournament and promised to serve all the youth equally regardless of political party affiliations. She warned women and girls to avoid walking alone in the night so as not to fall victim for the Mysterious killers who have murdered so far seven women in Katabi Town Council. On the misappropriation of the Youth livelihood funds (YLP), Tumusiime called for thorough back ground checks on all the groups that request for the funds.
