        The idea is attractive only to government technocrats who have their stomachs full. The rest of the poor citizens can go bonkers.

        If the current regime denied Amin’s family to burry him in Uganda, how possible will dictator Museveni allow anyone to build his museum in Kampala? #M7hatesAmin..... @HajjiKaliisa @BBCAfrica @kizzabesigye1 @EriasLukwago @norbertmao

        It is an interesting tactic... and surely better to own up to the past... we have all sorts of museums that showcases the United States bloody history as well...

        Iddi Amin, yes is a great president worth celebrating and remembering. A true leader who had Ugandan interests. A lot has been bedeviled of him, but sincerely speaking he did a lot of remarkable things for the good of Uganda.
