The Uganda Skateboard Union, annaunce the brother of Jackson Mubiru the President of the Union, His brother Nusbuga-Kyakuwa- John, He past away on 29 August 2009. John was a good man and he helped so much in constructing of the first half-pipe in Uganda with the a south-African young teenager boy called Sheal-Swart and then after he was also a chief engineer in the second skate park at kitintale community! John he use to get interest to watch the game but for him he was not a skateboarder!! Down are some of his photos when he was at school of City High in Kampala and also when he was trying to smoothing the first half-pipe in Uganda with Sheal, and on Top of that, he built even the second one with a Canadian Volunteer called Brian as you can see!
So, God bless John in peace!!Yeah, John is the one who made the Union to stand as you can see the way how he constructed the secound park!! God bless him!
