Majority of Ugandans especially those who use micro-blogging social media site, twitter are proud of the country’s football team, the Uganda Cranes according to a poll conducted by Red Pepper Online.
In the poll, users of the site were responding to the question, “Whom are you most PROUD of as a Ugandan?” with options including; The Politicians, Uganda Cranes, The Police and The Judiciary. It was held on the 6th of September, 2016.
The results indicate that 80% of Ugandans are proud of the football team that broke a 38-year jinx to qualify for Africa’s most prestigious football tournament, The Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2017 that will be held in politically tense Gabon.
