Who am I?

I am a tyrant, I am a commander, I was born in Koboko. I joined the British Colonial army in 1946 and helped against the Mau Mau revolt. I rose from the rank of an officer, to a lieutenant, to a captain, to a colonel, to the deputy commander and to the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces. I overthrew president Obote in 1971, became the field marshal in 1975 and made myself a life president in 1976. I ruled with brutality, expelled 40,000 Indians and Pakistanis and allegedly murdered 300,000 civilians so as to suppress opposition and thus became known as “the Butcher”. I was overthrown and fled to Libya in 1979 and later to Saudi Arabia until my death in 2003. Who am I?
