Our World - Season 16 Episode 20 Expelled from Uganda
On the 50th anniversary of the expulsion of South Asians from Uganda, BBC reporter Reha Kansara follows her mum and aunt as they return to the country together for the first time.
In 1972, Idi Amin publicly condemned Ugandan Asians as the enemy, enforcing a brutal policy that ordered them to leave the country within 90 days. It is estimated that up to 70,000 South Asians left Uganda in fear for their lives. On the 50th anniversary of the expulsion, BBC reporter Reha Kansara follows her mum and aunt as they return to Uganda together for the first time. Setting off from the English suburbs, they journey to the sugar plantations of Kakira and the home in Jinja they were forced to leave in a hurry. They are re-united with old friends, and discover how the expulsion changed the country they left behind.
