Tofiri Kibuuka is a Norwegian athlete. Ugandan by birth, he competed for Uganda before obtaining Norwegian citizenship. He has participated in both the Winter Paralympic Games, in cross-country skiing (for Uganda) and in the Summer Paralympic Games, in mid- and long distance running (for Norway). Active from 1976 to 2000, he won five Paralympic silver medals, and one bronze. ==Biography== He holds the distinction of being the first African to have competed at the Winter Paralympics, and more generally the only athlete from a tropical nation to have done so.〔(Database of the International Paralympic Committee. ) (Searching the list of participating NPCs per edition of the Games reveals that no tropical nation other than Uganda has ever competed.)〕 He is also one of only two Africans to have competed at the Winter Games, the other being Bruce Warner of South Africa (since 1998).〔(South Africa at the Paralympics ), International Paralympic Committee〕
