1972, 10 years after Uganda received its Independence, a young policeman from Lira - John Akii-Bua won the country's first Olympic Gold medal in the Men's 400 meter hurdles.
A simple man with a tall slender physic, never drawing attention to himself (from what I recall).
When Dad gave me this book, memories of their friendship came rushing back...their passion for sports and the times they traveled together.
