A Republic in eastern Africa (6)

I believe the answer is:

uganda

(Other definitions for uganda that I've seen before include "E. African country" , "It was Idi Amin's country" , "African state once tyrannised by Idi Amin" , "Idi Amin's native land" , "Country W. of Kenya" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
