CRIME🚨: Sydney Gongodyo’s Mother: He was Returning Home to Take His Sister to Nabisunsa Girls School.

The funeral of Uganda Cranes rugby player Sydney Gongodyo was marked by heartbreaking scenes on Sunday as his mother broke down while delivering an emotional tribute to her slain son. Mourners listened in silence as she described Sydney as an ambitious, disciplined and loving young man whose life was brutally cut short in a case of alleged mob justice in Ntinda, Kampala.

Gongodyo, who had proudly worn the national colours for the Uganda Cranes, was reportedly attacked and beaten by a mob after being accused of stealing a woman’s handbag. The incident occurred in Ntinda, the same neighbourhood where his family lives, shocking friends, neighbours and teammates who knew him as a calm, respectful and principled individual.

According to his mother, on the day of the incident Sydney was on his way home to pick up his younger sister, Precious, whom he was supposed to drop at Nabisunsa Girls School. She recounted how she tried to reach him by phone when he did not return, initially believing he had gone to Makerere University to sit an exam.

He was coming to pick Precious to drop Precious at Nabisunsa. I called Sydney because I thought he had gone for a paper in Makerere in the morning; that is why he is not having his phones on. By 3pm, Sydney’s phones were off,” she told mourners, her voice breaking with emotion.

It was only later that the family received the devastating news: while she waited anxiously at home in Ntinda, Sydney was being beaten to death just a short distance away. “Can you imagine I am in the house in Ntinda, and Sydney is dying outside in Ntinda. It pains,” she said, overcome with grief.

Beyond the horror of his final moments, his mother painted a portrait of the man he was in life. She spoke of a son who embraced relatives and family friends alike, treating them as brothers and sisters and serving as a unifying figure within the extended family. “Sydney was a very good man. All these people, his uncles and aunties, they became his brothers and sisters, he has been my brother,” she said.

News of Gongodyo’s death has reverberated through Uganda’s sports fraternity, prompting widespread condemnation and renewed calls for decisive action against mob justice. Fellow players, coaches and officials have urged authorities to carry out a thorough and transparent investigation into the circumstances of his killing and to hold all perpetrators accountable.

As the rugby community and the nation at large mourn the loss of a promising talent, Sydney’s death has reopened debate about the dangers of mob justice and the urgent need to strengthen trust in formal law enforcement. For his grieving family, however, the broader questions are overshadowed by a simpler, deeper pain: the loss of a son, brother and friend whose life and dreams ended violently just outside the home he was trying to reach.

[Herbert Mensah (President of Rugby Africa) @HMensahOfficial]

To the family of Sydney Gongodyo, Black Pirates Rugby Club, the Uganda Rugby Cranes, and the wider Ugandan rugby community, my heart goes out to you, and I offer my deepest condolences on the passing of Sydney Gongodyo.

At times like these, beyond the competition, beyond the jerseys and the stadiums, we are first and foremost a family. Today, that family is grieving the loss of one of its own.

Historic Uganda Legends win? ABSOLUTELY. 🇺🇬🔥

For the first time in the history of this fixture, Uganda Legends have defeated Kenya Legends, surviving a chaotic, entertaining and nerve-shredding battle in Mombasa.

The stats say Kenya scored more tries and made more visits to the 22. The scoreboard says Uganda won. Sometimes rugby doesn't need to explain itself. 😅

Uganda's kicking game, stronger set piece and just enough composure in the madness proved the difference as the Legends finally got one over their old rivals.

One point. Countless water breaks. Historic bragging rights. 🏉

@OGWALTK @HipposFans @ArindaWright @nataatsya @MuyambiJoel Hahahahaha, never strapped but there's a niggling issue now.

[Timothy Mudoola Muwumba @DonTimteo]

@HipposFans @ArindaWright @nataatsya @MuyambiJoel Dominant Leg Use – Most people are right-footed. The right leg is used more for kicking, stepping, accelerating, changing direction, and pushing off, which places greater stress on the knee over time.
