Ojera joined the side from URA FC in January, managed five goals, seven assists and a Player of the Month gong as 'Gikundiro' went on to clinch the Peace Cup, Rwanda's domestic cup.
At Rayon, Bbale will play alongside three other Ugandans, Joachim Ojera, Musa Esenu and goalkeeper Simon Tamale.
Ojera and Esenu were part of the Rayon team that defeated APR to lift the Amahoro Cup and will now be joined by two other countrymen to challenge for the league title.

TRANSFERS Lwanga signs for Rwanda's APR
Lwanga's arrival at APR comes as a free agent, following the mutual termination of his contract with Djibouti side Arta Solar in January.
Midfielder Muzamir Mutyaba is one of the players retained at Kiyovu Sports following a season that promised so much and delivered nothing.
The former KCCA player was part of the team that staged a title charge but fell short in the end.
He played alongside another Ugandan player in the shape of Erisa Ssekisambu, who has since been deemed surplus to requirement by the club.
