The Ugandan Tales

by Victor Rumanyika

Overview

The book is set in Uganda and about the struggles of ordinary Africans against post independence African rulers that preach freedom and emancipation but have turned into oppressors. Ordinary people seek to reassert their rights against an intransigent regime that is determined to keep them oppressed. The poems chronicle everyday struggles that are faced at the hands of fellow Africans masquerading as Pan Africanists. Through peaceful and non violent means, a new generation of ordinary people is now taking a stand against social, political and economic segregation. 

This is the second poetry collection by Victor Rumanyika. His first collection  "Betrayal of Hope" was released in January 2021. Victor Rumanyika is a Ugandan born writer that lives in Wolverhampton, in the United Kingdom.
