Let us hope that You will be buried in more respect that Iddi Amin. Should
we argue about that too? No for it is only time and it is on our side. Just
for the record, be very careful with any body who manages to be a leader of
Uganda, for if it was that simple, there are those who would have been
recognised yet they are not.
