In the corner of Owino Market, Kampala, a small boy of six, offers a single cigarette for sale. He is dressed in a torn singlet and covered in sores. At night he sleeps under buses and sniffs petrol fumes to keep off the cold and mosquitoes. He is one of thousands of children brutally orphaned by Idi Amin who now must make a life and a future out of thieving and blackmail, corruption and bribery. In the last month, Everyman has been to Uganda to explore the lives of this lost generation' and to meet the one man in Kampala prepared to react to their plight.
