Description: DM2008090305:EAED:POLITICS:PERSONALITIES:APR 1979 - Testing Time For The Oau - A Tanzanian Soldier Exults after killing three Libyan soldiers for Uganda's Idi Amin. High on the agenda was the war between Uganda and Tanzanian which keeps on recruiting despite mediation by OAU leaders and which is likely to escalate as long as Tanzani harbours ex-President Milton Obote and as long as Idi Amin continues in power in Uganda. The Tanzanian/Uganda war is the most tragic event in Africa at the moment simply because it has forced Tanzania, one of the so- called frontline states, to divert its attention and resources from the wars of liberation in Zimbabwe, Nambia and South Africa.

One marked aspect of the war has been the lack of information emerging from either side. The Long war with Tanzania has backfired on Amin and his followers, Kakwas, Nubians and Anyanyas and few pure Ugandan opportunists. The war started with the mutinies in a few military units in the Chui Regiment, Gulu, where about 60 soldiers were killed with the excuse that they were robbers. The same thing happened in Mbale, Malire, Mbarara, Masindi and Tororo. These mutinies occured because of lack of food and the delay in payment of salaries for over two months.

When Idi Amin took over in 1971, Bob Astles remained behind although he seemed to be likely candidate to be killed by Amin. But he convinced Amin that he knew intelligence work. He pleased Amin by telling him that the first people to be dealt with were those who were involved in investigating Brigadier Okoya's death.

Description: DM2008061907:EAED:POLITICS:PERSONALITIES:APR 1979 - The Invasion That Went Wrong - Tanzania Soldiers near the border fire mortars. The war between Tanzania and Uganda continues to rage on with the initiative still with the Tanzanians backed by Uganda exiles and supporters of ex-President Obote. One marked aspect of the war has been the lack of information emerging from either side. The Long war with Tanzania has backfired on Amin and his followers, Kakwas, Nubians and Anyanyas and few pure Ugandan opportunists. The war started with the mutinies in a few military units in the Chui Regiment, Gulu, where about 60 soldiers were killed with the excuse that they were robbers. The same thing happened in Mbale, Malire, Mbarara, Masindi and Tororo. These mutinies occured because of lack of food and the delay in payment of salaries for over two months.

Path: african.pictures / Bailey's African History Archive / Drum Social Histories
Description: DM2008071804:EAED:POLITICS:PERSONALITIES:FEB 1971 - Uganda's New Strongman: Major General Idi Amin, surrounded by armed soldiers, drives through the crowded streets. It all started with the rattling of gunfire throughout the night of January 24, 1971, which gave residents of Kampala not the slightest chance to sleep. Only a few people, probably only men of the armed forces, knew what was going on. The gunfire continued throughout them morning, and still there was no real knowledge of what was taking place. Then at 3:45 p.m. Radio Uganda interrupted its day-long music broadcasts, and an unnamed soldier read a lengthy statement announcing that the army had taken over the government. They also decided to take power from Dr Obote and hand it to our fellow soldier, Major General Idi Amin Dada. (Photograph by Drum Photographer BAHA)

The volume of acclaim for the overthrow of Obote was surprising to some observers. But there seemed no doubt about the sincerity of the people in Kampala and in Jinja, Uganda's second largest town, where more demostrations were quickly organised. There were processions through the streets, with crowds of people following army vehicles and shouting their joy. (Photograph by Drum Photographer BAHA)

Astles'c victim: Bruce McKenzie. Bob Astles has held one of the most dangerous jobs in the world for the last eight years. He has been an advisor and confidant to Ugandan dictator Idi Amin throughout his bloodthirsty and chaotic rule. Bob Astles, a Briton by birth, is now a naturalised Ugandan. During the Obote regime of the 1960s, Astles was an intelligence officer and it was he and Akena Adoko who founded the state Research Bureau in the early 1970s, before President Obote was overthrown. When Idi Amin took over in 1971, Bob Astles remained behind although he seemed to be likely candidate to be killed by Amin. But he convinced Amin that he knew intelligence work. He pleased Amin by telling him that the first people to be dealt with were those who were involved in investigating Brigadier Okoya's deat

Ever since Tanzania won its Uhuru the reasuring presence of Mwalimu Julius Nyerere in the presidency has been a constant factor. Now that he has declared his intention to resign his office, the spotlight falls on his possible successors. The sudden tragic death of Premier Edward Sokoine makes the issue more difficult.

Description: MBALE, UGANDA - FEBRUARY - A crowd of twenty-thousand Ugandans, including women and children, watched from a stadium in a pouring rain as a firing squad executed two alleged guerrillas from Bugsihu, Tom Masaba, a former captain in the Ugandan Army and Sebastino Namirundu, Mbale, February 1973. Masaba and Namirundu were interrogated, stripped naked, fitted with short white aprons and tied to their execution posts. Masaba, who was accused of being a terrorist was reported to have said, "Let those, like me, who are killing innocent people in the country, come out and report to the authorities." Idi Amin Dada declared himself President of Uganda, February 2, 1971 one week after taking power in a coup from Ugandan President, Milton Obote, January 25, 1971. Under Amin's eight year reign of terror from 1971 to 1979, it is estimated that five-hundred thousand people were murdered in Uganda. (Photo by Africa24 Media/Camerapix)
