This is a cool and rational description of what Amin put his country through, and it is clear that Kyemba doesn't want to know, or at any rate linger over, too many of the details of Amin's genocide of his own constituents, the destruction of the country's economy or Uganda's standing in the This is Henry Kyemba's memoir of being a member of Milton Obote's government in Uganda, and then -- somewhat to his surprise -- finding himself highly placed in Idi Amin's government after Amin ousted Obote.
