The Express Football Club disciplinary committee has axed skipper Julius Ntambi for alleged indiscipline and misconduct.
Ntambi, whose behavior was found wanting regarding the club’s code of conduct in regard to especially betting and match fixing, was stripped of the captaincy in a letter dated December 6.
Club chairman Kiryowa Kiwanuka confirmed the indefinite suspension of the player as investigations into the matter are still on going.
The former Uganda Revenue Authority FC and Kira Young FC player was named Captain in August by new head coach Kefa Kisaala.
The letter read: “In Express FC’s drive to excellence, discipline in its facets shall be and remains fundamental building block. Express maintains a policy of zero tolerance to indiscipline.”
“Mr. Julius Ntambi’s conduct has been found wanting in several aspects and it’s now the subject of investigation. We therefore inform the Express family and entire footballing fraternity that Mr. Ntambi has been suspended indefinitely, as investigations into the alleged indiscipline and misconduct are concluded.”
