how tall is the former ugandan dictator, idi amin?
Hello,
An article at Black World Today describes former Ugandan dictator Idi
Amin as being 6'4" tall. By all accounts he is a physically imposing
man, and many sources refer to his professional boxing career. He was
national heavyweight champion of Uganda for nine years, from 1951 -
1960, while he was a young soldier, and long before the coup in which
he took control of his country.
Here are some sites you may visit for more information about Amin:
