ACHOLI ARE NOT SELLING THEIR LAND WILLINGLY

-



Aholi people do not hate other indigenous groups, because it's in record that Acholi took care of a lot of people who are not from Acholi Community, talk about Late Abiriga, Gen.Moses, Ali, President Museveni, Gen. Salim Sale and others. These leaders would not be alive if not because of the sacrifices made by our children. 


What we are detesting is, the smart move of NRM government to settle Banyarwanda in Northern Uganda particularly Acholi subregion.


It is childish to say people are selling their land willingly, yet people are being propelled by the destitution they are languishing in. 


Even fools are well aware that Acholi used to keep their wealth in form of livestock and since they were all raided our people were left with empty hands. Whether these looters were Kjongs or not, NRM government takes the blames, because it happened in their regime, and it is the mandate of the government through a national army to defend its citizens.


Acholi were ordered to leave their homes and settle in IDP camps, where they lost their customs, resources, health and others.


Acholi people went through a lot of atrocities during the war and really required holistic rehabilitation after the war, but it's the same government that allocated money for this purpose and at the same time just sees its officials diverting and squandering the fund, a good example is how PDM fund was stolen.


Acholi went back home without anything to start life with, that is why these frustrated and traumatized people from the IDP camps started by hiring their land for burning charcoal and later resorted to selling. 


Putting a certain tribe in an absolute level of poverty, with a lot of trauma and frustration, then you bring people with a lot of money to manipulate them, can also be referred to as genocide.


I look at what is happening in Acholi as a genocide. I studied History and international relations at some level, and I have the ability to project the situation Acholi will end up in, and if our words can enlighten our people, then we give glory to God

The gimmick in Bardege-Layibi is not an honest bid for leadership but a double syndicate.

-
Bardege-Layibi became a constituency when Gulu municipality was elevated to a city status. In 2021 General Election, that constituency had the most powerful candidates in Acholi subregion. People who vied for the position of Member of Parliament Bardege-Layibi Constituency includes the last Gulu municipality member of Parliament, Hon. Lyandro Komakech, Counsel Tony Kitara, a renown lawyer and a proprietor of the Covenant bar and grill, Pastor Olal Roy and others. Hon. ojara Martin Mapenduzi who had exhibited peculiar and charismatic leadership ability during his time as speaker and Chairperson Gulu district emerged a winner in that tight race.  Upon his victory and eventual swearing in as the member of Parliament of the Constituency, he has made Gulu city and Bardege-Layibi Constituency in particular very tall, visible and loud. Because of his wisdom and abilities, the opposition entrusted Hon. Mapenduzi, a first timer in Parliament to head Local Government Public Accounts Committe...

On 30th August 2023 the news of Gabon coup started pouring on different medias. The Gabonese Army led by Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema took to the National Television announcing to Gabonese and international community that they have ousted President Ali Bongo, because of what they call electoral irregularities and unfairness. This brought Bongo's reign in the West African state to an end. Ali Bongo served as president of Gabon for 15 years succeeding his father Omar Bongo who had served for 41 years. Gabon incident came in a time when West Africa only within three years suffered at least 8 coups among others Niger's. The West African coups are running extremely fast like bush fire moving from one state to another with a number of grievances as woods fueling them. Most of these states in West Africa are semi independent since most of these countries are supposed to have their Reserve banks in Paris, France. The western world, France in particular can support a certain president a...
