Idi Amin - The Dictator who ATE his enemies

Known as ‘Big Daddy’ by his supporters and ‘The Butcher’ by his critics, Idi Amin went from being a dirt-poor illiterate boy from a town in north-west Uganda so remote nobody knows its name, to becoming the third president of Uganda, a speaker on the global political stage. He was infamous for his ruthless stomping down of perceived traitors, expulsions of non-Africans, his widespread terror, and his taking joy in humiliation.
