Uganda President Worse Than Idi Amin

Ugandan dissident entertainer and national legislator Bobi Wine says President Yoweri Museveni is worse than former dictator Idi Amin. Milton Allimadi, publisher of Brooklyn-based Black Star News and a native of Uganda, agrees. Museveni set in motion the mass killings and minority Tutsi takeover of neighboring Rwanda, and was complicit in the deaths of 7 million Congolese, said Allimadi. He believes events may come to a head at a huge concert scheduled by Wine in Kampala, the nation’s capital. “Ugandans have had enough of 31 years of US-sponsored dictatorship,” said Allimadi.
