{UAH} my grandfather died during Amin's regime

By Tweheyo Twhy Brian Besigye,

I was born 8 years after the rule of idi Amin, my grandfather died during Amin's regime, and it said he was killed by Amin's military men. So when am asked what I feel about Amin, i have mixed emotions and views... I loathe the man for robbing me a chance to know my grandfather but at the same time as I read history, I respect some of his leadership methods. Yes the man killed a lot of people, but which president of Uganda hasn't?, Obote? Museveni?...No, they all kill innocent people; the only difference is Amin wasn't smart enough to do it discreetly.

Yes chasing Indians the way he did might have not been the smartest move, but here we are told to believe Indians are creating jobs, although in the last years, Indian companies in Uganda have been profiled as paying workers less than 2000ugsh a day ($0.5) that's for a 10hour work day... How do you expect a human being: moreover a man with a family to survive on that, ....they are selling contaminated packed water from dirty factories, selling expired goods, and all kinds of atrocious things.....maybe the man was right to try and develop his indigenous citizens before allowing another colonisation and exploitation from india.

They say he was tribalistic, but in museveni's regime all big offices in the country are occupied by his tribesmen, same as during Obote's regime. And one can say the same for more than 80% of African nations and most parts of the world. A lot of views I have about the man, but let me stop here, because most people who want to sacrife the man would not do much different if put in the same position. I rest my case, Amin RIP.
