Gift came close to leading SC Villa to a first StarTimes Uganda Premier League title in 19 years, falling short on the final matchday as they lost to URA FC 1-0 on home turf.

Gift's career was first tracked at Booma FC in Masindi before joining SC Villa in 2020 on a three-year contract. 

While at SC Villa, Gift soon caught the eye of the national team selectors and has since featured for the Cranes in the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
