Idi Amin Dada Oumee

1972 - Idi Amin, determined to make Uganda "a black man's country", expels the country's 40,000-80,000 Indians and Pakistanis, reportedly after receiving a message from God during a dream.

"I am going to ask Britain to take responsibility for all asians in Uganda who are holding British passports, because they are sabotaging the economy of the country,"

The asians, most of who are third-generation descendants of workers brought to Uganda by the British colonial administration, were given 90 days to leave the country and were only allowed to take what they can carry. "If they do not leave they will find themselves sitting on the fire."

They didn't call him, 'the Butcher of Africa' for nothing. So many corpses were thrown into the Nile that workers at one location had to continuously fish them out to stop the intake ducts at a nearby dam from becoming clogged.
Amin was the heavyweight boxing champion of Uganda, holding the title from 1951 until 1960.
During 1975 he even staged a publicity stunt for the world media, forcing white residents of Kampala to carry him on a throne then kneel before him and recite an oath of loyalty.
