The Uganda Premier League (UPL) will not resume as earlier planned since President Yoweri Museveni extended their nationwide lockdown by 21 days due to the effects caused by the coronavirus.
The top-flight was expected to return on May 5, 2020, for the five remaining rounds but with the lockdown ending exactly on the same date, it will most likely be extended to allow teams training time.
League CEO, Bernard Bainamani, confirmed a course of action will be taken with respect to the President’s directive.

“The Fufa and FSLL statutes respect national laws and hence at UPL we shall comply with the 21 days extension of the quarantine and other measures as issued by the government,” Bainamani is quoted Kawowo Sports.
