Kampala — THE hunter is now the hunted. The clubs governing body SDCA will do anything, including bringing FUFA president Lawrence Mulindwa down on his knees and Ugandan football on it's death bed, to ensure that Moses Magogo the FUFA competitions committee secretary is out of the federation.

Two years since I wrote in this column that Magogo was FUFA's most diligent official and also the best performer, I wholeheartedly believe that he still is.

It's the real reason why he is SDCA's enemy number one. Get him out of FUFA and Mulindwa's days at the helm of FUFA are numbered. Magogo has been and still is, the only performer in his federation.

If SC Villa scored 22 goals in a single match in the 2004 season, the victim, Akol FC must have been a seller and Villa the buyer. It was as mutual arrangement between two league clubs. To counter Villa's bold deal, Express FC turned to Top Radio where Sam Ssimbwa was coach with a better offer.

On match day, Express scored two goals within the first two minutes and they were warming up for a goals return better than Villa's return against Akol but Ssimbwa would hear none of it. He summoned his team off the field and the Express deal fell through.

During the last days of the late Engineer Jack Ibaale in the second half of the 1980's, KCC refused to honour a league fixture against Express in order to give Express an advantage over SC Villa with whom they were jostling for the title.

In return, Express who had been drawn to play KCC in the knock out stages of the then Uganda cup were supposed to lay aside and allow KCC to progress.

Both sides kept their part of the bargain but to their anguish, SC Villa still went on to win the league title. Magogo is old enough to have been around to understand why Ugandan football had decayed.

All the so-called big clubs had played a big part in their endless syndicate and match fixing plots. Some top club officials actually financially made a big kill from these deals.

The league had become a free market and the principles of economics had taken over. When Magogo was given the mantle, he went on a hunting expedition and has been finding his targets. He laid down the law from day one hence his unpopularity. He's unbending, uncompromising, ruthless in administering the law, incorruptible.

Out of frustration the top dogs in SDCA refer to this as "stubbornness. " They say Magogo doesn't take advise and is disrespectful. But if that's the opportunity cost of having a competitive league, then give me Magogo any day.
