In November 2019, Uganda's lost James Kunobwa, one of her best newsreaders since TV began. He began service during President Idi Amin's time and we are lucky to have spoken to him before the Lord recalled him. You would not have known how deadly it was to displease Amin and his fellow leaders and you would also not have known about Amin's usually hidden humane side. But let the late James Kunobwa tell us himself, as you subscribe to OwanaPaedia, the one-stop-centre for Uganda's history. #JamesKunobwa #IdiAmin #UgandanHistory

Up to now I wish I lived in the Idi Amin Dada era coz he was such a courageous man,Owana too your so funny coz I remember you at Kabalye PTS as a Makerere student under crime prevention training. It good to watch such history coz I didn't know that Kunobwa died,may their souls rest in eternal peace i.e Idi and James.

I encourage to document nonetheless. You should actually join the Vatican because the Catholic church especially keeps its records straight!

Why do Ugandans despise Swahili that much? Asking from Kenya.
@akandondaelly62059 ай бұрын
It goes back to history . Many Ugandans in schools were taught in English . You know the Arabs settled more in Kenya than Uganda . Then Kishahili was used mostly by soldiers and police men ( even now they used it but not so much ) in the past regimes and people used to distance themselves from the then brutal soldiers .

We have own languages and so do you! Your tie to kiswahili is political. Lose your language, lose your culture as is already evident.

Museveni is just an intolerant dictator like Amin was. The only difference is Amin was Pro-Ugandans and Museveni is pro-his tribe(refugees from Rwanda).
