One could easily call Wycliffe Kiyingi's "Muduuma Kwe Kwaffe" a Master Piece but though one may hesitate to call it so at least few people or no one will argue that Kiyingi's 4- Act play never came anywhere close to what one would consider to be master piece because surely this could be the closest that Kiyingi could have come to master piece. Muduuma Kwe Kwaffe is literally translated to mean 'Muduuma' is our 'home' or our place of birth and origin.
The play is set in the era of the Former President of Uganda Idi Amin Dada and no wonder that it carries historical undertones that replicate the Africanization of the Ugandan Economy which involved forcing Indians out of their shops and having them given to the Ugandans.
