ONLY two Ugandan boxers will feature at the Commonwealth boxing event in Scotland next week.

Light weight Solomon Bogere and welterweight Michael Obin were cleared on the intervention of sports state minister Charles Bakkabulindi after a stormy meeting on Wednesday.

Six boxers were set for the Scotland tournament, but National Council of Sports blocked them questioning their financial status. The Uganda Olympic Committee has sponsored the team.
