Check out this throwback photo of Yakubu Gowon with Idi Amin Dada (Center) in Kampala, Uganda the day Gowon was overthrow.

On 29 July 1975, while Gowon was attending an OAU summit in Kampala, a group of officers led by Colonel Joe Nanven Garba announced his overthrow. The coup plotters appointed Brigadier Murtala Muhammad as head of the new government, and Brigadier Olusegun Obasanjo as his deputy

Idi Amin was a cannibal that murdered one of his wives and ate her.

Gowon was a vampire that killed 3 millions igbos to satisfy his blood lust.

...I bet they had a wonderful feast of human liver with extra limb and a jar of human blood for dinner

Anyone else watched 90 minutes at Entebbe Airport (with Yaphet Koto as Idi Amin)? There was also another movie that portrayed Amin in even worse light! Can't seem to remember the name now!

I hope the man wasn't as evil and daft as the west made him out to be! undecided

General Idi Amin, one of the greatest leaders Africa ever had. It is pitiful, shameful and pathetic that at this day and age, young Africans are still mouthing rubbish against this man.

Reading and education is dead, certificated zombies everywhere.

Please go and buy the documentary of Idi Amin, the pirated CD is N200, and stop spewing stupidities here.

Can't say he was one of Africa's greatest, he did wey he do, but it took him some time to challenge European authority over his land, too long I might say, symbolism of him making white people bow in his presence meant nothing when they was the solid rock he built his house on and when they shook his house crumbled, he relied on them too much to control his country, they armed him and he troubled every one else, Kenyans, Indians, rival tribes but never the whites that owned most of the resources.

you're no different from Fela,Fela liked this man die. But what I know about Idi Amin is that he took everything extreme,and he was so cruel,even though he never allowed whites to control him nor turn him to puppet,he instead sat on their heads while they carried him around. i don't know about the cannibalism thing though cos most people watched that in a movie

And you know this because you were at the dinner party or because Oyinbo said so. Was Idi Amin ever given a RIGHT TO REPLY or that is unnecessary?
Emancipate your mind.......by using it

You know what? I have been listening to Fela this past few days, grin.

Bro, all you need do is go and buy the CD of the documentary of Idi Amin, the real documentary, it is only N200, watch for yourself and make your own deductions, see how they used propaganda to destroy this great man of Africa, and decades after certificated zombies still cannot make the break from the lies they were forcefully and cunningly fed with.

Amin saw the future!

Amin was great!
