Controversy

After Uganda withdrew from the 2004 African Women's Championship qualification prior the preliminary round matches against Malawi, Nakimbugwe and fellow Ugandan footballer Oliver Mbekeka moved abroad.[3] Being in the Democratic Republic of the Congo,[5] they were naturalized there as Annette Nshimire and Oliva Amani, respectively, and represented the country at the 2006 FIFA U-20 Women's World Championship.[3] She also played the following edition in 2008.

Nakimbugwe's daughter, Hasifah Nassuna, is also a footballer and both have faced each other in Ugandan women's league matches.[3]
