'I didn’t believe I would be back playing football' - KCCA FC's Jurua on malaria attack

Kampala Capital City Authority FC defender Hassan Jurua has stated he did not believe he would recover from a serious malarial attack in 2020.

In February last year, Jurua, who can play as a midfielder also, was admitted to the intensive care unit at the International Hospital Kampala after he fell sick before it was confirmed the malarial attack had led to kidney failure.

Then, it took the club's patron Mayor Erias Lukwago, captain Charles Lukwago and chief executive officer Anisha Muhoozi to calm the KCCA fraternity following Jurua's status.
