Uganda Cranes Boycott AFCON Training Over Unpaid Allowances ¶
On July 3, 2019, Uganda Cranes players staged a protest and refused to attend their training on Tuesday night in Cairo over a pay dispute.
The players refused to train, accusing the Ugandan Football Association of dishonesty regarding the payment of their camp and winning allowances.
This incident is not an isolated case, as several teams have protested over non-payment of allowances at this year's AFCON, including Nigeria and Zimbabwe players.
