For the first time in almost 4 decades, the Uganda cranes qualified for the Africa Cup of Nations 2017 being held in Gabon from January 14th to February 5th 2017. Many Ugandan fans who would love to travel to Gabon might not be able to because of the cost or because of work and family commitments.
Airtel has gone to great lengths to get as many fans down there to cheer the team. To add more fire to that spirit Kafunda Kreative and Airtel Uganda believe more can be done to show our boys that the country is behind them.
Show your Tulumbe Spirit, is a campaign aimed at using social media to;
- Create some visual noise by use of twibbons on our Facebook and twitter profiles.” The premise for this is that when our boys check in online, which they will, they know they have the same support they have come to expect when they play at home.” – David Ogutu, team leader Kafunda Kreative.
- Rally Ugandans, mostly those skeptical about our chances in the cup, by reminding them that in each and everyone of us, there is the Tulumbe Spirit, the same spirit that runs through the cranes. A spirit that never gives up despite the odds stacked up against us.
Showing your Tulumbe Spirit is rather simple. All one has to do is click on this link; http://bit.ly/2jqzy1n, follow the steps and a twibbon will be automatically inserted on your profile picture. It’s time we painted the timeline with the Tulumbe Spirit and showed the whole of Africa what Uganda is made of.
