BUL head coach Abbey Kikomeko Bogere, said: “When you look at the backline of our team, we had a loophole on the left side. So, I opted for Mwere,” adding: “I looked at his height and his work rate. He is a young player and a promising defender. I expect him to become a better defender now that he has joined BUL.”

Meanwhile, Mwere said: “I am excited to join BUL FC, the Eastern Giants. BUL is a winning team, they recently won the Uganda Cup and I expect to win with them more titles,” he added: “I will try to defend better as well as attack at the same time to help the team achieve its targets. We are going to work together and win together.”
