Wammanah started his UPL career at KCCA FC from St Julian SS Gayaza in 2016 before his spell under coach Mike Mutebi failed to take off. He then joined Proline on loan where he became a mainstay and integral member of the side as well as enjoying a couple of Silverware.

“Casemiro” as profoundly referred to by his peers had this to say in his initial remarks after unveiling before adding. During his time at UPDF, he was summoned for National Duty and featured in the Regional Tour games.

His mobility, combativeness, composure, passing intelligence, and ability to cover huge distances on the field of play are some of the attributes he possesses as a player and a big reason that attracted the Tax Collectors to sign him. He becomes the sixth signing at the club after teenagers Kisiriko Denis Luzige, Kisolo John Innocent, Amis Bwangani, and Godfrey Sekibengo as well as the versatile Aliro Moses Okabo.
