James Bwogi

Director UTV.

TV viewers vividly recall the drama he staged on the occasion of the rmoval of the bronze casting of Obote's sculpture from the archway of the approach to the Uganda Parliament buildings. He demonstrated his production ability and rhythimically ortrayed the dislike for Obote the villain, and glorified the new regime. One would have thought his programme meritted an appreciation or a reward. Instead,, soon after and for an unknown offence, Bwogi was killed by the same people he had glorified. His real crime was never made public and he was soon forgotten by friends and foes alike.
