The entire country went mad again on January 27, when Major General Idi Amin Dada, leader of Uganda's military government announced the release of 55 political detainees held since 1966. Among those released were five ministers dismissed and detained by Obote, and Uganda's first prime minister, Mr Benedicto Kiwanuka. Also freed was Nalinya Ndagire, sister of the late Mutesa.
