Uwikunda, who is gradually rising as one of the best referees from the CECAFA region, will work with fellow countrymen Dieudonne Mutuyimana and Eric Mugabo as assistant referees, as well as Ruzindana Nsoro as the 4th official.

The 27-year-old referee was among the 32 centre referees who officiated at AFCON 2023 in Cote D'Ivoire. He has been involved in CAF competitions for the past seven years.
