The Gossage Cup--launched in 1926--was the oldest football tournament in Africa. Here's film from the 1956 version. First: the semifinal, which putting Uganda against Zanzibar. It was--as far as I can see--the first film made by the Uganda Film Unit. 1/ https://t.co/N5btrhW8Nh 1K views · 11 likes · 8 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

I've just published an admiring obituary of the late historian John Iliffe in @TC_Africa. Prof. Iliffe was my colleague during the time I taught @Cambridge_Uni, and I learned a great deal from him. Requiem aeternam. https://t.co/20p8VCrTFb 7.2K views · 88 likes · 38 reposts · 4 replies Open on X →

@Unseen_Archive @Reuters He grew up right in front of us, free from any form of scandal and controversy. A gentle and relatable King to the youth, a very jolly and present King to the subjects. What a tragic loss. 13K views · 114 likes · 0 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

I am very sorry to hear of the death of Oyo Nyimba, the late Omukama of Tooro. He spent much of his short life growing into the leadership of his kingdom. He was crowned in 1995 after his father's death. He was 3 years old. Here's a clip of his coronation. Courtesy @Reuters. ht 367.4K views · 2.7K likes · 467 reposts · 19 replies Open on X →
