You suggest that Mbeki said “Idi Amin was a wise man.” I listened to this talk live at his birthday celebration, I have re-listened here again. At no point did Mbeki say General Amin was a wise man. He did not even intimate that. You either missed the joke or are distorting for clicks.

Idi Amin was also a sociopath who murdered innocent people left-right-and-centre.

I am Kenyan. I lived in South Africa for 8 years, I basically grew up there. But there is one major thing that hurts me to the core, South Africans hate fellow African immigrants than whites who oppressed them for around 300 years and the apartheid regime of 46 where a black man was the perfect allegory of shit. I was beaten, bullied and harassed by my fellow black students and they always use to chant the famous south African song of " kigwara gwara kinuga kisuga kinuga eeeh" which loosely translates to LEAVE LEAVE YOU FOREIGNERS YOU STINK During the apartheid regime when South Africa was crippled by chains of discrimination the rest of Africa cried with them, they were aided by The Congo, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda but after their independence their leaders turned them against us. Most African immigrants in South go there to find solace and safety but arrive only to find peril and doom awaiting them. South Africans need to wake up and change because reciprocity of bad deeds is paid here on earth, KARMA IS A BITCH!!!

My suggestion would be, every citizen of African countries must actively participate in betterment of each country so that we will all move around each others countries to explore endless pool of opportunities... We should do away with parasitic and selfish behaviour. If you come to South Africa for opportunities, I must also be able to move to your country an enjoy same opportunities

[@rogermoosh]

THIS IS A STRAIGHT SIMPLE MESSAGE TO ALL AFRICAN CITIZENS: Stop being naive and unnecessarily unreasonable. Read this message carefully to help assess your own attitude. Every post independent African country will HAVE to go through a cycle of tearing itself apart through internal conflict be it tribal,economic,religious,political or otherwise. When that cycle roller-coaster comes to your own country (door step), you will wish your fellow African neighbors were your friends. Inevitably that's where you will pin your hopes of survival. To offer you the basic fundamentals of life for you to carry on. Be it psychological ,moral,financial,health and other material support for you to survive. Unfortunately if you were hostile to these neighbours either as immigrants to your country or scuffled across borders, then the only choice you will have, is to endure your demolition within your burning country. Some shallow minds believe that it was the fault of the people of those countries. Yes indeed true as it may be but you will also go through those mistakes inevitably. It's human nature. If your own country has not gone through this cycle don't worry it's coming. It's like amstel beer it brews slowly. I can assure you it's coming.However intelligent citizens do smell the tell-tale signs of the on coming storm and usually years before. And unfortunately no body does anything about thwarting it despite everyone knowing because there's also always an accompanying atmosphere of fear in the general population. This i say so that you guys ,whoever you are and from whichever country in Africa you come from, you be aware and watch how you treat each other across your national borders. For you African country's citizens who love your fellow Africans from other African countries such as Rwanda,Zambia and Uganda who welcome fellow desperate Africans in need,GOD BLESS YOU . PEACE BE UPON YOU FOR GENERATIONS AND HAVE EVER INCREASING PROSPERITY and continue to : LOVE THY NEIGHBOR. So the holly book says. "What goes around must surely come around " is a formidable rule of nature and always unstoppable . So guys whoever your, think before you terrorize your neighbors when they desperately flee to yourcountries because to be frank with you the reverse will face you sooner than you think. African history has shown this to be the case and inescapable. In African countries, the TOXIC COMBUSTIBLE FUEL (corruption,nepotism,chronism,poverty,hunger,homelessness,collapsing infrastructure and institutions,lawlessness,cover up and crime) is ever present and in abundance. (Sounds familiar?) And ALL you need is a matchstick or a spark to ignite it and set off an explosion of un imaginable proportions. Unfortunately this FUEL is very much available everywhere in Africa. Question to you then is; do you see this FUEL in your country? If the answer is yes I thank you and request you to be careful. If the answer is no; you may be right depending where you are but chances are high that you are either in DENIAL , DON'T KNOW,DON'T CARE or simply buried your head in the SAND like an ostrich. HATRED FOR YOUR FELLOW FOLKS WILL NEVER MAKE YOU ANY STRONGER IF ANYTHING IT'S A SIGN OF WEAKNESS. My input and advice to those who care to reason and do good.

He went back home to Uganda, rose in ranks to become general of chief of staff in Ugandan army and eventually took over the presidency in 1971. "Aidha nyie ndio baadhi ya wakenya mlioweka makataa kubaini na kuenzi kamanda Dedan Kimathi na wanaharakati wote wa MAUMAU na vizazi vyao. Siku njema."

[@barakasupAfrika]

Many years have past and Idi Amin is dead, but on reflection, he was a true son of Africa committed to the complete economic, social and political liberation of Africa. He was initially mislead by the British and misunderstood by some Ugandans. He meant well for the economic emancipation of ordinary Ugandans. Today, Ugandans own their land, livestock and national economy. It is one of the few countries in Africa, where the economy is owned and run by indigenous persons. Go there and you will see for yourself. If you are a Foreign Investor, you can only partner with them, on their own terms. Idi Amin put the economy into the hands of Ugandans, to the displeasure of Africa's colonial masters. And, Amin, could not understand, what wrong he had done! He lacked political administration and then collided with the politicians. Amin never killed ordinary Ugandans who went about their normal legal duties and businesses. He was hard on criminals, political gimmicks and agents of imperialism. He was committed to the complete liberation of Africa all the way to CapeTown South Africa including Guinea Bissau and Cape Verde. Yes, in the process he made some mistakes and we all make mistakes. He may be forgiven. He was an ordinary intelligent person who was misunderstood. May the Almighty God forgive him and rest his soul in eternal peace.

Idi Amin was a bad leader, everyone knew that till today his country is still strongly to survive.

[@loguchennai]

Wish you had idi Amin in your period of life time...it will be fun to see ☺️✌️

[@naghoprayerministryinterna1353]

Idi Amin who destroyed his country economy and drove away the business men and till today the country is still not yet recovered from the evils the Idi Amin does.

[@orudivineako3110]

U are a big lier.Amin was a great leader

[@gatecreed8384]

Something about listening to older folks talk about their normal life as diplomat freedom fighters during black and white tv days . I can listen all day

[@PRENTERTAINMENTSFMRADIO]

I agree he was a true leader of the people on the ground no matter however the west portrayed him

[@XOSEKOFI]

Woe very insightful.

[@margaretsekinobe2428]

Rest in pray Idi Amin.

[@PatrickTumusiime-e2i]

As a Ugandan,i always pray for another Amin because this great man wanted only the best for Uganda. May his soul rest on eternal peace.

[@danielfungayinyaungwa8949]

I agree CIA propaganda is still embedded in Africans ,Idi Amin was a true African, liberators, he was not a self-centered. I am now his fan. My idol.

[@dudleymakeche7842]

Which part of Amin is your favourite??

[@atuheirweallaneden6781]

​@@dudleymakeche7842 The Part where he builds hospitals around Uganda that country uses Upto now,Stadiums and Roads Reforming the Land system in 1975 and distributing land to all Ugandans. Expulsion of Asians and creating an economy of black men.

AFRICA NEEDS MORE ACTION THAN SPEECHES.

[@mpram5522]

And this one is know for speeches. It was during his presidency that SA saw a lot of laws been passed, without implementation. We must remember him as one of the lucky one who was educated in Britain and learned about apartheid from his father.

Yes indeed was a wiseman

[@amarusheeku8605]

I thought I was the only one who think Idi Amin was smart.

[@mjelombilini7628]

I was looking for two to three-year term of him in office, he resembled a pleasant sense of responsibility in economics to put our country in competitive mode.

[@joemtshatshubiggest6711]

These were strong African leaders that challenges foreign influences on our Mother land,unfortunately today is a different case😢

[@korky5214]

You dislike foreign influences LOL, bet you got a Mobile phone, You are on KZbin, you surf the net, You drive a car, You drink fresh water, you fly in a plane, You wear glass, Bet you have head phones, You watch TV, Hospitals/ Dentists, The pen, Potatoes, Electricity, Tared roads, Hair dryers, Credit cards, Banking, Lights, Ships, Cranes ........... all foreign Niran.

[@niranolar384]

@@korky5214 My learned friend ,I hope you are not suggesting Africans couldn't have gotten and indeed invented some of the technology that lead to other inventions. Am sure you will agree and well documented that blacks and brown were robbed of credits for their inventions. Let's move on,no race in the world is born into know how,with we as human race get smart and more smart as yrs roll on. Saxons and the anglos were savagers so people evolve,trying to see point in your references maybe you can expand your point a lil pls

[@niranolar384]

Just to clarify my point about foreign influence: AM talking about European powers meddling with African politics. We know of British divide and rule foreign policies now,French firm grip on former colonies and their wealth deposits in French reserves,please at least maintain a neutral mind. Having said I have not a shredd of bitterness towards no one blk or white ,as they say: Is just politics! But I think in the 21st century Africans with the support of friends allieds across the ocean should help make sure African wealth works for Africans not supporting tyrants that help cart their wealth and resources away. Fairtrade is not fair, commonwealth where the wealth is not common and Hague has of been bias.

[@FactsOnlyPlease.]

@@korky5214 You speak as if Africans or people of African decent didn’t contribute to any the things you mentioned. As a matter of fact, Africans have contributed to most of them if not all! Some of the most brilliant minds in the world of science, engineering, and medicine were Black people! Now I’m sure with your diseased method of thought will disagree! BTW what is a tared road?

[@korky5214]

@@niranolar384 Africans have indeed contributed to many inventions even those that hardly anybody know about. Nizar Mullani invented the Pet Scan, Blue babies survive because of an African man. Just sad that African news never mention them. There are many more I could mention, but everyone seems obsessed with white and black and who did what, instead of working together to build a nation that betters all.

[@prime_a]

I support him /Id Amin for speaking for the miserable in Uganda and take hard decisions to adress the oppressing leaders who were stealing from the poor in Uganda. Little mindset hate him because of the stories written and made up by the haters

[@ksprakasan6080]

Great speech 👏👏♥️

[@regkinsman5429]

I cannot believe that anyone can listen to this person. He is the root cause of the electricity collapse in South Africa today. Arrogant and very short sighted. When kicked out of power in 2007 he made a comment... I'm sorry about the fact that I never heeded advice to build power stations ... Such an elementary issue. Imagine how major issues of critical importance go unnoticed by supposed leaders of this calibre. No wonder Africa is where it is.

Recently, A report out of Uganda 🇺🇬 says that Gold worth Trillions of dollars has been discovered. Imagine if Idi Amin learned of this findings during his leadership. The quality of life in Uganda would be the of the highest standards today.

Look at Libya now. They struggle more than they were under a so called "dictator"

Idi Amin brought untold suffering to Uganda whoever thinks he was intelligent show what kind of a person they are

Amin is our hero, Uganda was a lot cleaner when he was running it. The macaques from Britain don’t want Africans to be independent and always have to rely on you macaques. Amin is forever Africa’s greatest crusader !!!!

[@thamsanqawisdomsiziba3552]

It is very sad that as Africa we are so stuck in the past,we have a great and rich history but a very poor future because we are moving forward whilst looking backwards. We talk about history and talk about history whilst Africa is going into shambles,the so called leaders have become looters and they are very greedy and they have insulted all the efforts that were done by the liberation initiators because some fighters are the ones that are destroying the same africa they fought for.
