On July 19, 2019, the Africa Cup of Nations final will take place at Cairo International Stadium, with Dixon 'James Bond' Okello at the helm of security matters.

Okello, a no-nonsense security expert trained by FIFA, is known for his iron-fisted approach to dealing with security threats.

As the head of security, Okello will be responsible for ensuring the safety of the 75,000-capacity stadium and the extended ceremony of awarding the winners.

With VIPs from around the world in attendance, Okello will be coordinating with high-level security details to guarantee their safety, as well as that of the thousands of fans present.

The Federation of Uganda Football (FUFA) extended their best wishes to Okello on the night, tweeting: "Experienced FUFA, CAF, and FIFA security expert Dison Bond Okello will head security matters at the Final of the Total AFCON 2019 between Senegal and Algeria on Friday. FUFA wishes Okello the best."
