The management of reigning Masaza Cup Champions Buddu Ssaza team has appointed Ibrahim Kirya as the new head coach.
He replaces Steven Bogere who was sacked following a poor start to the 2022 Masaza Cup campaign.
Kirya was in attendance as Buddu suffered a 2-1 defeat to Kyadondo in a Masengere Group contest at Buwambo Playgrounds.
The former SC Villa tactician has been serving as Balangira Clan head coach in this year’s Bika Football Competitions. Balangira have replaced Kirya with Sam Ssimbwa.

Kirya will be assisted by Andy Ssali who was part of Bogere’s technical staff that led Buddu to their second Masaza Cup triumph last year.
During the 2020 and 2021 editions, Kirya served as Gomba Lions head coach. In 2020, he led Gomba to their fifth Masaza Cup triumph.
He has previously served at URA FC, SC Villa, Lweza FC, Wakiso Giants and lately Tooro United in the capacity of head coach.
