You get a business or corporate account with Ecobank and then collect payments with it. They even do teller implant services so you can open a storefront in Kampala and they will staff it with somebody who can collect payments in person to deposit to your Africa wide account which you later can then SWIFT wire transfer anywhere you want.
Another method is simply become your own XpressMoney or RIA agent (avoid WU), and then instead of having to physically go check for funds you can load up your agent account and immediately see the funds are there.
There are plenty of large European payment gateways that have local African payment methods like cash bank deposits you can use but some of them take a month to settle payments.
You could also roll your own voucher type system. Various traders in Uganda buy vouchers from you then resell them p2p so the money never leaves your bank account while changing hands all over Africa. The customer enters a PIN to split the voucher or deposit it to their betting account. This requires a competent crypto engineer obviously. Could even use your own centrally mined alt-cryptocurrency. Or you could partner with storefont money changers with a lot of branches in Uganda to accept money on your behalf (like selling PIN codes) that way they already have all the local licenses and satisfy ID requirements for payments in/out and your company only handles business to business payments eliminating all kinds of problems with regulators.
You can also ask your embassy in Uganda for a financial report telling them you need information on the local banking and money transfer systems. I did this for Kenya and received a very detailed pdf with exact fees of each service, bank recommendations for trading ect.

Edit: there's also World Bank publications you can read to discover easier money transfer corridors like Masterlink which is a Uganda->UK service http://www.amazon.com/dp/0821384309 or USAID publications http://solutionscenter.nethope.org/assets/collaterals/Uganda...
