Omedi and Kiwanuka put pen to paper on a two-year deal each today and also watched APR's 2:0 League game win against Marines FC on Wednesday January 8, 20204 in Rubavu district.

On the national team, Omedi was instrumental as Uganda Cranes qualified for AFCON 2025, scoring two goals in the campaign. On the other hand, Kiwanuka has been lethal for SC Villa and helped them to win the Uganda Premier League last year.
Interestingly, the duo was today morning named by coach Paul Put in Uganda Cranes provisional squad for CHAN 2024. The move to APR therefore, automatically rules them out of the tournament.
At APR, they become the third Ugandan player joining defensive midfielder Taddeo Lwanga.
