Uganda Cranes starlet Khalid Aucho has issued an apology saying his actions that led to his dismissal from the Uganda Cranes were “irresponsible”.
Aucho was dismissed from the Cranes camp on Friday over refusal to adhere to the National Team’s Code of conduct after he refused to board the official means of transport organised to pick him from Entebbe International Airport to the team Camp at Cranes Paradise Hotel – Kisasi
On his official social media media handles, the El Makaasa midfielder issued an apology for his actions.
He said “Am remorseful and I take full responsibility for the mistakes that led to my suspension from the national team camp for the forthcoming AFCON qualifiers against Burkina Faso and Malawi, I regret my actions and am ready to put this chapter behind me as it’s a dream to represent my country.
“‘To FUFA, fellow players, fans, family and friends; I can only say I’m sorry.”
I also accept the fact that many of you will not believe my apology or anything that I say at this point but this is my only official statement and it’s from the bottom of my heart.”
“I wish the Uganda cranes sucess in the two encounters and I hope for the best.”
Uganda face Burkina Faso on March 24 at the St.Mary’s Stadium Kitende before traveling to Malawi for the Final Group B game on March 25.
The midfielder was set to miss the encounter with Burkina Faso at St Mary’s Katende but was eligible to play away to Malawi.
