The Annual Elgon Cup two-legged match pitting Kenya Uganda is in doubt following a standoff over the upcoming Rugby Africa elections slated for Saturday in Marrakech, Morocco. Kenya Rugby Union chairman Richard Omwela has been fronted by the English-speaking countries for the position of vice-president but Uganda Rugby Union president Andrew Owuor has since announced his candidature. Omwela has been at the executive Committee of Rugby Africa for eight years and is planning for an upgrade of roles by becoming the vice president. The General Assembly will be an opportunity to renew several trusty partnerships, reinforcing the links between Rugby Africa and the South African Rugby Federation (SARU) and the French Rugby Federation (FFR). It will conclude with the presentation of awards to the federations and the election of the new executive bureau of Rugby Africa.
