Former Maroons FC coach Asaph Mwebaze Jr is not happy following the appointment of Ghanaian tactician Samuel Paa Kwesi Fabin as the coach of the Ugandan national under 17 team.

The Young Cranes have qualified for the Under 17 AFCON in Tanzania this year and the Ghanaian gaffer has been contracted to lead the team.

Mwebaze however believes a Ugandan is capable of handling the team and he sees no reason why they should bring someone outside to do the job.

“I welcome Mr. Kwesi Samuel as coach of our youth team.” Mwebaze’s post on Facebook reads.

“But it’s today I question why some of us are deeply involved in football as a vocation. Every footballer wants to represent his country be it at any level, so why is it not possible for Ugandan coaches to coach our national teams?” he questions.

Fabian was the coach when Ghana placed second in the Under 17 AFCON in Gabon in 2017 and also the quarter finals of the World Cup in India.

He resigned as coach of Kumasi Asante Kotoko in November last year.
