[Kramer]

My role Model name is Idi Amin Dada Oumee. AKA 'Big Daddy', AKA 'Butcher of Africa', AKA 'Conqueror of the British Empire', AKA 'Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Sea'.

here is a short facts I like about Idi amin

1972 - determined to make Uganda "a black man's country", Amin expels the country's 40,000-80,000 Indians and Pakistanis in the closing months of the year, reportedly after receiving a message from God during a dream.

"I am going to ask Britain to take responsibility for all Asians in Uganda who are holding British passports, because they are sabotaging the economy of the country," Amin declares at the start of August.

1975 - Amin promotes himself to field marshal and awards himself the Victoria Cross. The following year he declares himself president for life.


At the end of July Britain breaks off diplomatic relations with Amin's regime. Amin declares that he has beaten the British and confers upon himself the title of 'Conqueror of the British Empire'.


After he was forced out of power he is asked to leave Libya he lives for a time in Iraq before finally settling in the port city of Jeddah in Saudi Arabia, where he is allowed to stay provided he keeps out of politics. The Saudis provide him with a monthly stipend of about US$1,400, domestic servants, cooks, drivers, and cars. He leads a comfortable life with his four wives in a modest house.


During 1975 he stages a publicity stunt for the world media, forcing white residents of Kampala to carry him on a throne then kneel before him and recite an oath of loyalty.

"1972 - determined to make Uganda "a black man's country", Amin expels the country's 40,000-80,000 Indians and Pakistanis in the closing months of the year, reportedly after receiving a message from God during a dream."

One of his biggest mistakes throughout his presidency. in a matter of few yrs the economy went plummeting, ppl staterd dying of hunger and the whole country was ruined as a result.

Not to mention his butchering skills and keeping ppl's heads in his head quaters, but this one was not unique to him in Africa.

"Idi Amin, President of Uganda is carried by four British businessmen during a party for diplomats in 1975. A Swedish businessman holds an umbrella in the manner of servants who once shielded tribal rulers from the sun."

I wonder what would the Ku Klax Klan reaction would be if they witness this event or heard/saw it?
