UGANDA: 10 Interesting Facts You Didn't Know

1. Rolex is a delicacy.
You’ve probably heard of the saying, Ugandans don’t wear a Rolex, they eat it! It is absolutely true, what we do with the Rolex is, roll it up and straight to the mouth. So here’s is the difference between the international Rolex and the Ugandan Rolex. In Uganda, we don't wear Rolex, we eat it.
2. Home to Iddi Amin.
One of Uganda's biggest exports is it's former president Iddi Amin who ruled the country from 1971-1979. He named himself the conqueror of the British Empire and he's also most famous for expelling Asian from the country in order to give back the Ugandan economy to Ugandans.
