@Pete2619 @TheMutaD India doesn't allow dual citizenship

[Artful Dodger @foecum]

I don't think india allows dual citizenship

[DBwambale @TheMutaD]

Allegedly, some on that list have Canadian, Indian, and other citizenship. Let's see how Oboth-Oboth's Parliament handles their first serious task

I’m sorry for mistaking the exhibit for an iPhone 15 yet it is an iPhone 17 Pro Max. I’m not very knowledgeable about phones 🤣.

The last attempt of Idi Amin Dada to return to Africa.

In 1989. This was the last time Amin visited Africa. He is seen here in Zaire on a plane that was to send him back after Mobutu’s government rejected his visit and detained him for one week.

Amin’s travels began on New Year’s Day, when he appeared unannounced at the airport in Lagos, Nigeria, on a flight from his home in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Using an assumed name and carrying a Zairean passport, Amin swept through the airport in long, pink-flowered robes. He stayed briefly at the Lagos Sheraton, where he waved enthusiastically at Nigerians who recognized him.

Then he continued on to nearby Gabon and his apparent final destination, Zaire. It is not clear what Amin hoped to accomplish in Zaire, where he had family and scattered supporters.

The French news agency Agence France-Presse, reporting from Kinshasa, the Zairean capital, quoted "reliable sources" as saying there was "no doubt" Amin was hoping to get back to Uganda via Zaire. The two countries share a long, sparsely populated border.

An Air Zaire pilot, however, recognized Amin as he got off the plane in Kinshasa. He was consequently arrested and held for more than a week at a military airport in the capital.

He was questioned about his passport, which was discovered to have been part of a batch stolen from a Zairean government office several years back.

A Zairean official was quoted in Nairobi newspapers as saying that Amin’s presence was a problem. "We cannot allow him in without endangering our relations with our neighbor Uganda, where Idi Amin is still considered an outcast."

Diplomats in Kinshasa were quoted as saying that Amin’s presence was "an embarrassment" to Zairean President Mobutu Sese Seko, who once had close links with him.

After being held for one week, Zairean officials put Amin on a Zairean government plane and flew him to Senegal, where he was supposed to board a flight back to Saudi Arabia.

That night, however, Saudi officials refused to allow Amin on the plane. The authorities gave no explanation, but one source was quoted as saying he lacked the necessary visas.

After being stopped in Senegal by officials Thursday, Amin reportedly reboarded the Zairean jet that brought him there and returned to Zaire before being allowed to enter Saudi Arabia again. In Uganda, news of Amin’s travels sparked mild interest but little fear.

Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni said Amin should be brought back to Uganda to face trial. He added that the Ugandan government was in contact with Zaire, and that it was "high time" his country demanded that Saudi Arabia turn Amin over to Ugandan justice.

Political observers in Uganda regarded Amin as a spent political force. He was considered much less threatening to the Museveni government than former president Obote, who was in exile in Zambia. Some claimed Obote’s troops carried out abuses that equaled or exceeded those of Amin’s army.

This was not the first time Amin had ventured out of exile. In 1980, a year after invading Tanzanian forces chased him out of Uganda, he reportedly made a brief visit to Zaire.

In 1985, apparently thinking the time was right for a return to power, Amin left Saudi Arabia for southern Sudan, announcing that he intended to lead guerrilla forces against then-president Milton Obote. Amin never entered Uganda, however, and when he returned to Saudi Arabia, officials there greeted him coolly and stripped him of his VIP status.

Amin had lived with some of his family in the port of Jeddah from the time he was toppled. His expenses were catered for by the Saudi government as an act of Islamic charity to a fellow Muslim.

He was known in Jeddah for his habit of sitting down for chats at local teahouses.

This week we received a donation (from a Ugandan living in Uganda) of UGX 10,000,000 to support our work. Well wishers like this are welcome to enable the continuation of our work following the freeze of the organisation's bank account by FIA.

In December 2025, during the launch of the "Uganda's Transition Question" book, we commissioned a fundraiser to support our work amidst the external funding cuts.

We call upon anyone who can support Agora in any way to reach out as we navigate the complicated terrain that we continue to operate in.

Thank you!

What happened to the automatic braking system! It would have prevented this. What a sad loss.
I usually advise my clients take their new cars for computer assessment ,reseting and proper service before going on the road.
@MujuziEmmaK @ArafatMawejje have great systems.
