Janani: The Last Stand

During the dark days of terror in the reign of Idi Amin Dada, most Ugandans lived in fear and dared not stand up against the dictator, and for those who tried it, they disappeared, never to be seen again or turned up dead. One man single-handedly stood up against this dictatorship regime and spoke at every opportunity given to him, even when people around him kept on disappearing. His faith was the only required defense. With this, he went places that no man dared go to, and he earned his respect. Idi Amin was terrified of him. His name was Archbishop Janani Luwum.
