Jinja Hippos will miss the services of their inspirational captain Amos Wako for their Nile Special rugby Premiership game against Rams in Jinja on Saturday.

Wako was suspended alongside their tight-head-prop Emmanuel Wakabi for dangerous tackles during their 32-25 loss to Heathens.

Wako will miss his first league game for the team in over three years.

The Uganda Rugby Union suspended the players as they announced disciplinary actions on Thursday ahead of the busy matchday.

The club will also miss Isaac Rujumba who is undergoing a disciplinary process with the Union.
