Even if I say it shall not be well with them,it’s already well with them.Even if I say thunder should fire them ,they have already lived to a ripe age. My plea is,may God never allow them see even the gate of heaven .....

Musoveni started out like Bobi Wine. He fought the dictatorial and oppressive regimes of Idi Amin and Obote. He got power and became worse than both of them. |

Ctorch: I feel Sassou-Nguesso should not be in the top 4 or even 5. True, he first came to power in 1979, but then he was booted out in 1992 and he remained outside of the presidency until a brief civil war ensured that he came back to power in 1997. So, for a period of 5 years, from 1992 to 1997, Nguesso wasn't president. So, his current reign/tenure as Rep. of Congo actually started in 1997. |
