The Ugandan champions progress to the first round of the CAF Champions League with a 4-3 aggregate score.
Following a goalless first half, Mike Mutebi and his charges had only 45 minutes to find at least a goal and ensure qualification past the preliminary round.
With only 10 minutes left on the clock, Kizza exquisitely broke the deadlock with a superb free kick effort right into the bottom corner.
Eight minutes later, Okello happened with another sublime effort after recieving the ball from Mike Mutyaba and ultimately sealed off the game.
KCCA will now await for the winner between Petro Atletico de Luanda and Lesotho’s Matlama who play their second leg tie on Sunday with the Angolans leading 2-0 on aggregate.
