Chicago Marathon champion Jacob Kiplimo, Africa Champions Jemimah Nakawala, and Farahat Manirola win the 2025 October Real Stars sports monthly Awards on November 4.

The event was attended by Judith Nabuule, Resty Mbatidde Namugema, and Organizing CEO Isaac Mukasa.

Kiplimo ran 2:02:23 to become the world’s 7th fastest Marathon runner, while setting a new National record, breaking his own record he set in April 2025.

From World Champion, who won the accolade beating Halima Nakaayi and Joshua Cheptegei, two Africa Champions, to Jemimah Nakawala in Table Tennis and Farahat Manirola in Boxing, all won the accolades in their respective disciplines.

Jemimah Nakawala won the Table Tennis accolade for her three straight wins, which stood superior for Team Uganda’s qualification for the World Championship.

In the contest for the accolade, Nakawala beat teammates Pervin Nangonzi and Judith Mirembe, but they were not near her level in terms of performance.

Meanwhile, Farahat Manirola was the Boxing Star, scooping his second career accolade from Real Stars Sports Agency; his first came in May last year for his professional belt in April.

Manirola won a Gold medal at the Africa Zone 3 Championship. For the Accolade, he beat Aziz Ringo and Willy Kyakonye.
