I’m so traumatized that I haven’t been able to sleep properly these past few days. The heartbreaking videos of Sydney’s brutal treatment which eventually cost him his precious & innocent life, keep replaying in my head.
I’m deeply hurt, scared and saddened by the cruelty & mercilessness he endured. My heart goes out to his loved ones during this difficult time and I sincerely hope he gets the justice he deserves. 💔
Dear @PoliceUg
In the latest videos of the attack of Sydney Gongodyo(RIP)
These men are seen trailing him, the one riding UEF 974P knocks him over as the other 2 seen there assault him. All of them then throw rocks at him. They should join Obed.
. @Lukowoyesigyire "The Police at Kabalagala Division are investigating a robbery incident that occurred on 6 May 2026 at approximately 11:30 a.m. at the Nsambya Traffic Lights along Ggaba Road in Kampala.

@MotivKasagga Iam sick to my stomach I feel so so sorry for his family, no one should ever loose in such a manner may all who cast a stone at Sydney pay dearly for it rest in perfect peace champ
The final moments of Sydney Gongodyo's life captured on camera. Frame by frame, the footage reveals some of the mobbers wielding knives as the incident unfolds.
The list of monsters who killed Sydney is long. I trust that the police and other security agencies will hunt them down one by one until every last person who threw a stone or any other object at the deceased is brought to justice. @PoliceUg
Even in tough times, it’s important to try and guard your mental health and keep some form of sanity.
There will be people who will want to milk from tragedy. There will be those who make comments that shake you. Don’t!
We have a mission to fulfill, we need justice served.
I didn't know Sydney Gongodyo personally, but I know what it means to watch a young man pour everything into something he loves. With all I have seen here over the last few days, and funeral proceedings on @NBSportUg, Sydney gave everything to rugby, to his family, to his motherland.
And now he is buried at just 27! We must do better than this. As a society. As neighbours. As human beings.
Rest in peace, Sydney. Justice must follow you home.
My condolences to his family, our @nextradio_ug partners at @piratesrugbyUG, and the entire @UgandaRugby fraternity.
We have buried @GongodyoSidney Now we demand justice.
Some of his killers are still out there. The hooligans who set upon my brother on 5th June 2026 and took his life in a cowardly mob attack are walking free. That ends now.
We are not asking for revenge. We are asking for the LAW to do its job. In public. In open court. Where all of Uganda can watch.
We have launched a petition demanding a public mobile court trial at the very scene of the crime for every single person involved in Sydney's murder. Sign it. Share it. Make noise.

To @UgandaPolice arrest all the perpetrators. To @DPP_Uganda prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law and seek the maximum penalty. To @Educ_SportsUg@NCSUganda@UgandaRugby your voices are needed RIGHT NOW!
Do not call it mob justice. There is no justice in what they did. Calling it justice is an insult to the word. This was MURDER. Treat it as such.
Sydney was a son, a father, a teammate, a rugby star and a future Captain of this Nation. He deserved to live. His family deserves justice. Uganda deserves better.
Sign. Share. Do not let this fade. 🙏🏾

PUBLIC NOTICE 📢
The club is cognizant of the ongoing petition that requires people’s signatures.
PLEASE NOTE, only sign and don’t make any money deposits to the link.

We should have a memorial game every hero’s day in the name of Sidney where all money made from that day goes to take care of his son. The least we can do is ensure that his son is raised to mirror the outstanding character of Gongodyo.
