Guess what, Ugandan economy crashed within a year. The thing is it's unfortunately very rare for a self governed African nation to come out as prosperous and not commit a genocide against a tribe. Look at South Africa, it's drowning in corruption and crime. I'm not defending the Apartheid, but the black majority government doesn't seem to be doing so well.

    Britain, even though it committed abuses like most colonial powers, developed "well" its african colonies, France and Belgium on the other hand left their colonies in such a state of disorder and exploitation that they started their independence already lagging behind and in conflict. France to this day still controls the commerce and currency of most West African nations, the recent events in Chad are just an example.

    Lots of Asians in this film who would be expelled by Amin, later. I remember in the 70's, when I was a kid, here in UK, all the shops shut at 5 in the eve and on a Sunday they only opened for a couple of hours to sell the newspapers. When Asian shopkeepers moved in during this time, shops began to open 24/7, these people revolutionised retailing in this country and gave us the service that we expect as normal today. Young people today dont know how bad it was back then, when everything shut down at 5 in the evening, you could not get anything. The Asian shopkeepers were a revolution and they still are.

    Uganda was only a protectorate not a colony, The British government ruled Uganda indirectly through sharing powers with the local leadership like Kabaka (King) of Buganda kingdom. It's the 1900 Buganda agreement that sealed an alliance between the two countries. So the locals were directly ruled by their own kings and chiefs, and the latter were accountable by the British government. That's why Ugandans didn't form rebellious groups to fight for their freedom or independence. It was done diplomatically on request.

    The Independence day of Uganda reminds us of our great freedom fighters who sacrificed and struggled their lives in order to free our Uganda from the British rule. It commemorates the courage, spirit and persistence of the freedom fighters who fought for the independence of uganda. But it also represents the core of our beliefs, the very makeup of our identity as Ugandans ruling ourselves, having the choices of our future in our hands, we blame ourselves for anything not the whites. Uganda is suffering from oppression by Museveni, his one of us in case his a Ugandan! Independence marks the first day of self governance of people of that country, politically because politics determines the economic and the social well being of a nation, the choice was in our hands either we chose good or bad governance. The problem is our politics and politicians not Independence

    The interests were for the independence and freedom and the common people were excited because their freedom had been flagged on as a sign of raising the Uganda flag lowering the union Jack but the country has since then been served into the hands of selfish and greedy citizens who instead sabotaged the interests that Ugandan thought and dreamt had neared. Tracing back into the actions of the Presidents the young country has ever had, it's their own interests that they frontend and one of them on his death bed had guts to say, " Entebbe Ewooma" translated from Luganda as power is sweet because during his tenure he didn't serve the country, he interested himself in enjoyment and personal pleasure and it was sweet. Uganda is under a bondage and this bondage is either inherited as we became a new country or we have traces of the characters of colonialists in black skins like Mbagutas who still had to collaborate with the former master rulers of Uganda to extend neo colonialism. There's more to do and more as Ugandans to interest ourselves in breaking if it's surely to be independence. it's now a celebration of Uganda at 60 years since the Ugandans expected their freedom, rights, and voices to be heard so that they can impact on the development of their country but not a single voice was adhered to. A lot of souls of our departed sisters and brothers who have since then died in the struggle roam around the borders of Uganda, around the parliament, streets, institutions and everywhere guiding the young generation on how and what the mission was but the politicians have gripped on harder. By the look of things, Uganda deserves more than guns and suits matching in and out of three arms of government. Uganda needs unity and valuing of the common voices, working along with the elites, all political wings, tribes, and religions and putting Uganda first to restructure because Uganda has not taken a step ever since the lowering of the union Jack and raising of the Uganda flag, it all stopped there when those who took over the young country failed to work together to see that Uganda progresses as a country. They were divided on their own selfish interests and forgot about Uganda and Ugandans interests of their country. So sad!
