I congratulate the retiring Generals for the great contribution they have made to the UPDF. The Army and the NRM have been able to build peace and security in Uganda because of many factors, including our ideology of patriotism, modern military technology and the strength of our national economy.
This song in 1980 caused ripples in the Catholic Church to the extent that the Vatican asked the Bishops in DRC to intervene. Mobutu also stepped in to curb the spread of the song. Most of us black Africans who donโt speak Lingala did not know what the song was about until now that it is subtitled in English. This is a rendition of the original song, but the lyrics and music are unchanged. Happy Sunday Bazalwane
A MOMENT BEFORE HISTORY ๐บ๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ช:
Mombasa, October 15, 1963: Ugandaโs founding Prime Minister, Apollo Milton Obote, stands beside his beloved fiancรฉe, Miria Kalule, in a poignant photograph taken just weeks before their wedding.
On November 9, 1963, they exchanged vows at the magnificent Namirembe Cathedral in Kampala, beginning a marriage that would endure through some of the most turbulent chapters in Ugandaโs history.
Miria would later become First Lady of Uganda and, in 2006, make history as the first woman to contest Ugandaโs presidency, carrying the Uganda Peopleโs Congress banner.
A rare and beautifully intimate glimpse of two young people standing at the threshold of love, marriage, and history. ๐บ๐ฌโค๏ธ
