Through years, Uganda as a country has gone through a number
of high and low moments in its history. Ofcourse it will be
rather impossible for anyone to fully understnad the contributions
that individual Ugandans have made in Uganda's process to
independence and emancipation in terms of self determination,
economic empowerement and cultural destiny. However, it suffices
for us to start looking back and recognise those Ugandans
that have stood out in one way or the other and for the positive
things that those individuals have done for general goodness
of of our people.
