UGANDA DOESNT = AMIN DADA

During my stay in the states, i was astounded at how many couldn't connect where am from till i said Amin Dada....and sometimes those who wanted to confirm where quick to ask ' Is that where Amin Dada's from'?

Been readin a book THE BLOODSTAINED PEARL OF AFRICA AND ITS STRUGGLE FOR PEACE. This has given me a much clear view of why Amin seems to have ' made a name' for himself on an international platform.

so i ask...who are the p'ple you believe contributed the most in putting your country/city into the history books( For good or bad reasons)
