How Dictators Killed the Democracy | History of Uganda 1962-2021 (2021x2)

Ausstrahlung: Jan 29, 2021

The small East African country of Uganda recently elected Yoweri Museveni as its president for the sixth time, continuing his run as head of state that began with his violent takeover of power in 1986. Despite his win there are allegations of widespread voter fraud and clear indications that underhand methods were used in order to give him the advantage over his main political rival Bobi Wine, who was placed under house arrest by the army on the day of the election. In this video I dive into the long and complicated political history of Uganda from its independence in 1962 and through the various infamous dictators like Idi Amin and Milton Obote to better understand the foundations of Ugandan democracy and how Yoweri Museveni was able to rise to power.
