Uganda has since gone through turbulent times. In Jan., 1971, Obote, at the time outside the country, was deposed in a coup by Maj. Gen. Idi Amin. He was to rule the country for the next eight years.
In 1978, Uganda invaded Tanzania in an attempt to annex the Kagera region. Tanzania launched a successful counter-invasion in 1979 and effectively unified different anti-Amin forces under the Uganda National Liberation Front (UNLF). Amin’s forces were driven out and Amin himself fled the country.
Uganda was to have several Heads of State under UNLF: Prof. Yusufu Lule, Godfrey Binaisa, and Paul Muwanga as the Chairman of the Military Commission.
UNLF, suffering from internal strife, was swept out of power by Milton Obote and his party, the Uganda People’s Congress. The National Resistance Army (NRA) conducted guerrilla campaigns throughout the country and, following the withdrawal of Tanzanian troops in 1981, attacked former Amin supporters. In the early 1980s, approximately 200,000 Ugandans sought refuge in neighboring Rwanda, Congo, and Sudan. In 1985, a military coup deposed Obote, and Lt. Gen. Tito Okello became Head of State.
When it was not given a role in the new regime, the NRA continued its guerrilla campaign and took Kampala in 1986, and its leader, H.E. Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, became the new President.
Uganda adopted a new Constitution in October 1995 as the supreme law of the land that has since established a foundation for democratic governance in the country.
