Who is Uchi Banani?
The judo monkey’s name is Uchi Banani. He got his name (thanks to one reader) because of his two loves of his life:
Uchi Banini first featured in the Koka Kids Junior Judo magazine way back in edition 15, and he has been a firm favourite in helping judo kids learn about judo ever since.
