Uganda’s Power Duo: The Rise of Milton Obote and IdI Amin Dada

In this episode, we explore the early partnership between Milton
Obote and Idi Amin, two key figures in Uganda’s post-independence
history. Their alliance was built on mutual necessity—Obote
needed Amin’s military strength to consolidate power, while Amin
relied on Obote’s political backing to rise through the ranks.
But beneath the surface, ambition and mistrust simmered. Join us
as we uncover how this fragile partnership shaped Uganda’s early
years and set the stage for a dramatic power struggle.
