UGANDAN COMMUNITIES WORLDWIDE
UGANDAN-COMMUNITIES WORLDWIDE,TO FOLLOW AFRICAN ROOTS &.CULTURE.
Ugandan-Community African roots are long and strong. Our elders were heroes who survived in difficult situations and stood fast. They had a powerful culture full of discipline respect, love and dignity. We need to reclaim this.
Most African and Black youth are ignorant of their heritage and culture and without culture they are like trees without roots. The lack of connection to their ancestry has robbed our youth of their confidence and dignity causing problems in their respective communities. For the sake of the next generation we need to make a difference. The African Roots and Culture Center is a focal point for all people African & non-African. Regardless of race, religion, culture or creed, all people are welcome at this center.
Our children keep on dropping out of school, and every year that passes by the number is increasing .......Why? Our youths are being imprisoned not knowing how many are there and why they are in such a place. Some are also being hospitalized without having anyone there to care and nourish them since we immigrated here without a family.
As black people we need to unite together to solve our problems . Umoja ni nquvu. (united is power). We can make a larger family within ourselves, and receive all the family benefits. Back home we are united already by our blood, tribe, village here we have to form a union so we can be a large family. We must make this happen for the sake of the upcoming generation.
How do we facilitate this change?
1. U.C will sponsor black communities by giving them space for their assemblies and activites.
2. U.C will host a black senior's forum twice weekly to brainstorm ideas for the betterment of our people. We need our elders, as their knowledhe is vital to our existence as a strong, effective community.
3. We will recruit young adults who can relate with and train their peers. Today rapid advances in technology mean that we must keep up with the times.
How do we help the children & youth?
1. All children will have the opportunity to learn their native language through community volunteers.
2. The children must have the vision of their heritage and only we as black people can provide this. U.C will promote black heritage by entertaining children with movies, story times, libraries, etc.
3. Once a month U.C. will give awards to youth and children for outstanding achievements. By doing this, it will inspire all of them to do their best and to reach their dreams.
4. Every summer we will endeavor to send a number of children to Africa to examine the history and heritage of their people. This will also give them an opportunity to visit their homeland. But they must earn this trip (by way of school grades).
5. Ugandan-Community will give young adults the opportunity to display their artistic talents by hosting concerts and through viewings of local artists. We will sponsor them by selling tickets to the above-mentioned events.
How can you help?
The African Roots and Culture Center cannot do this alone. We are all responsible for our next generation. We all have the ability to create anything we want and every one of us, man and woman has something to offer. We are responsible for the future of our children. We and only we alone must prepare our children for adulthood and to face the future with confidence and pride.
The first key is unity. Black communities in BC, for the first time ever, need to be united for our next generation.
U.C doesn't depend on government funding-we exist as a business. By purchasing tickets to events, you will be supporting the Centre and our work for the next generation. This project belongs to us, we must keep it afloat.
We ask for donations such as computers, books paintings, etc. and most of all yourself and your knowledge. U.C needs the contribution of your knowledge to pass on to our next generation.
African Roots and Culture, is more than a business- it's about us, it's about parenting, it's about our NEXT GENERATION. With God's Will and our effort, forever we will stand and together we will make a DIFFERENCE = Ugandan - Community in Vancouver-western Canada as well Wananch, members Peace,Love,Unity is our motto.

NUBIAN COMMUNITY FACES POLITICAL EVICTION IN BOMBO TOWN
1,000 Nubians face eviction from Bombo
LAND BONANZA: Yasiin Mugerwa & Olandason Wanyama
KAMPALA/BOMBO
AN estimated 1,000 people, mainly Nubian families, face eviction from Bombo Town Council in Luweero District.
Daily Monitor has learnt that the government wants to take up the 50- acre land to relocate the Rehabilitation Centre for the disabled persons currently situated at Lweza in Wakiso District, which has been taken over by an investor.
Officials of the Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development, in October last year, quietly offered the land in Lweza to an unnamed investor.
Under the deal, the investor is expected to construct a new multi-purpose training centre for persons with disabilities in Bombo town council to replace that at Lweza.
The deal, which the Parliamentary committee on Gender, Labour and Social development sanctioned last November, has, however, provoked strong protests from the Nubians who say the Buganda Kingdom donated the Bombo land to them during the colonial era.
"As long as we live, we are going to fight for our ancestral land," Mr Mohammad Wahib, the chairman of the Nubian community, said in an interview on January 16.
Documents obtained by Daily Monitor show that there is controversy over the ownership of the land on Block 1026; Plot 65 Namaliga in Bombo Town with Henley Property Developers Limited; a Kampala-based private Company, being the latest claimant.
The company claims it bought the land from Mr James Ddagirira, who allegedly acquired it from Mr Hussein Musa Mayanja, an administrator of the late Stanley Kisingiri's estates, who in the late 19th century served as an agent of Kabaka Daudi Chwa of Buganda.
But the Nubians, who originally migrated from Sudan and fought alongside Buganda Kingdom and other colonial British forces, said the Kabaka of Buganda rewarded them with the land in Bombo after they suppressed the anti-imperialism Banyoro uprising of 1880-87.
That notwithstanding, senior government and Henley Company officials toured the disputed land on December 19, 2007 to prepare for a formal takeover by the Gender Ministry before its planned transfer to the investor for erecting the proposed modern centre for PWDs.
"Henley (Property Developers Limited) is working closely with the Ministry of Gender for the realisation of this objective," Mr Richard Mubiru, the company's corporate affairs director said in a December 31, 2007 letter addressed to Mr Geoffrey Kyomukama, the Bombo town clerk.
When Daily Monitor visited Bombo town council last week, the Nubian community firmly rejected any tacit maneuvers by the government to either evict or compensate them for the land.
"We have lived here and are going to continue living here (in Bombo) because this is our ancestral land," 73-year-old Captain Ramathan Kassim, who says he is a former governor of South Buganda Province in the 1970s, said.
"It is ridiculous that the government should have a hand in this," he charged.
This nascent row over the land in Bombo comes at a time when the central government is pushing for amendments to the 1998 Land Act that would, among other things, make it harder for landlords to evict tenants.
The Amendment Bill 2007 has already stirred resistance from Mengo, the seat of the Buganda Kingdom, which accuses the government of fronting a suspect legislation to dispossess registered landowners of their land.
Meanwhile the central government argues that the new law would enhance security of tenure for both the landlords and tenants and criminalise evictions.
Mengo reacts
Mengo officials last week spoke angrily over the proposed takeover of the Bombo land by the government and urged the residents not to yield to "land grabbers".
"This is land grabbing because Nubians are Kabaka's subjects and well represented in the kingdom," Mr Medard Ssegona, the state minister for Information in Buganda kingdom said adding, "They (Nubians) should resist eviction because Buganda genuinely gave them this land".
The LCII Chairman for Nkokonjeru Parish, Mr Habib Juma said: "Whoever wants to evict our people should bring a letter from the Buganda Kingdom canceling the offer."
If the government succeeds to possess the disputed land, about 1,000 or more people in Lutamandwa, Gangama and Kabulanaka in Bombo Town would be thrown out from what they say is their "customary land".

Re. what is going on in Uganda now, is what Lado Community wrote. why some people who claim to be Ugandans, and some are considor Foreighners. totaly wrong Idea. as I explain some time back, there are no tribe called Nubians. the Nubian Language are like swahili in which many tribes understand each in communications. the few people that came from sudan and fought 100 years back, the mority were killed by ugandan rebels that entered uganda in 1979. it was part of plan of why the Former President of Uganda the Late Al Haji Idi Amin was overthrown. read what is writened in Lado Community Article in my weblogs. explains details of the plan. now people that called Nubians. are Ugandans tribes who have Intermerriage in all tribes in uganda, they are all Muslims. call themselve Nubians, civilised society. this matter has to go to united nation to Intervene and solve this matter once and for all. it is a very serious case & urgent matter before bloodshed happens. This community lives in harmony with baganda for the period of over 100 years. now some crazy people bringing bad move. this must stop. Bravo.

RE PART TWO 2 LADO COMMUNITY
THE RISE AND FALL OF THE HATED GENERAL IDI AMIN OF LADO TO POWER IN UGANDA AND OF THE EVENTS THAT LED TO THE DECLARED " PROTRACTED UGANDA WAR ON LADO FROM 1978 / 79 TILL TODATE " LEAVING STILL UGANDA UNDER THE BRITISH SOVEREGNITY TO COLONISE LADO KINGDOM
A BRIEF HISTORY NOTE AS A FOLLOW UP TO PARTS II AND III OF THE RISE AND FALL OF GENERAL IDI AMIN :
In 1890 Britain leased the LADO ENCLAVE (Sudan) to King Leopold of Belgium, in return for a corridor betwee n Lake Albert Edward and Lake Tanganyika ), in the so-called MACKINNON TREATY - in an attempt to link up the Cape to Cairo railway (connected by steamer across Lake Tanganyika). Germany protested against this arrangement; the treaty never was ratified.
In 1908, the Lado Enclave, which in fact never before had been under British administration, but as forming part of the Nile Basin was within British territorial claim, "reverted" to British rule and was, for the most part, administratively incorporated into the Sudan (1910), as were parts of Ugandan territory (Gondokoro); only the southern tip of the Lado Enclave was integrated into Uganda.
Why Does Britain Hate General Idi Amin From Lado , One Time President Of Uganda ?
THE SUPREME COUNCIL OF STATE , UGANDA

Since President Apolo Miltone Obote ' s Coup d ' Etat on 24th January 1971 , Sunday night , failed -------- and the Counter Coup d ' 'Etat of 25th January 1971 , led by Sergent - Major Musa a Sudanic Lugbari , succeeded then on the same day at 15 hours of the day January 1971 the overthrow of the announced on the National Radio of Uganda by the Warrant Officer II Sam Wilfred Asua , a Sudanic Lugbari thus giving the 18 reasons for causing the Struggle and Affirming that the change over of the Government was a result of Self - Defence ------- against a total extermination against the Sudanic tribes of Uganda by the Nilotic tribes of Uganda as stipulted by Mr . Obote himself before he left for Singapore .

THE BRITISH - UGANDA WAR ON LADO
( The Shaning of President Mr Julius Nyerere of Tanzania ) .
1 INTRODUCTION
1. 1 In October, 1978 , the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania, headed by President Julius . K . Nyerere as the Chief Execuctive Athourity , declared war on Uganda Officially . President Nyerere justified his action with the argument that he had been requested by the peoples of Uganda to overthrow President Idi Amin of Uganda , whom he accused of mismanaging Uganda . The delegates of the Peoples of Uganda , in whose name President Nyerere invaded Uganda , assembled in the Tanzanian town of Moshi , where they elaborated the Political justification to President Nyerere 's action against Uganda .
1 . 2 The writing of this paper here aims to bring out briefly the implications and the consequences of President Nyerere 's action for Uganda as a land and as a multinational community of African men .
2 . MOSHI CONFERENCE - March 23 - 29 , 1979 :
2 . 1 . Aims and Purposes
2 . 1 . 1 The Moshi Conference was attended by the delegates of the Peoples of the East Nile / Uganda , namely the Bantu people , the Luo / Nilotic people , the Nilo - Hamatic people and others who are of non - African origines . The Sudanic people of the West Nile / Lado ( i .e . the Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Lendu , Logo , Ndu , Avukaya , Bari , Muru , Gbanda o , Mundu --- etc --- ) were not required, therefore not invited , to attend it . It was held in Moshi , Tanzania , during the period of March 23 - 29 , 1979 . The Aim and Purposes were as follows :
a / - To remove President Idi Amin and his Regime from power in Uganda :
b / - To re - establish Democracy in Uganda without the West Nile / Lado which had been recognised as the Lado State by the International Community in 1892 before it became a Confederate State with the Uganda State in 1926 . , thirty two ( 32 ) years after the Uganda State had been created by the British in April , in 1894 . and thirty four ( 34 ) years after it had been recognised by the International Community in September 1892 :
c / - To re - establish the National Independence of Uganda .
2 . 2 IMPLICATIONS
2 . 2 . 1 The implication of 2 . 1 . 1 ( b ) above is that the West Nile / Lado was not needed in , and was not to be considered as part of Uganda . And the implication of 2 . 1 . 1 ( c ) above is that Uganda was not independent during the eight - years period of 1971 - 1979 , when it was ruled by the Sudanic People of West Nile / Lado with General Idi Amin , a Sudanic speaking Kakua as the President .This implication means , in turn that the Sudanic Speaking people of the West Nile / Lado are considered Foreigners in Uganda .
2 . 2 . 2 . It follows that the Idi Amin Regime was to be removed in Uganda , not because it was a regime of Military Dictatorship as was officially stated , but because , in the minds of the Delegates at the Moshi Conference of March , 1979 , it was a Regime of Foreigners from the West Nile / Lado .
2 . 3 . OUTCOME
2 . 3 . 1 The outcome of the Moshi Agreement Conference of 1979 was / is the Uganda National Liberation Front ( UNLF ) , which consisted of three Organs :
a / - An Executive Council , headed by Mr . Yusuf . K . Lulue a Muganda tribe Muslim who turned out later to be a Protestant :
b / - A legislative Councilknown as the National Consultative ( NCC ) , headed by Mr . Edward Rugumayo, a Mutoro from Western Region .
c / - A military council , which was refered to as the Militaru Commission or the Military Wing of the UNLF and which was headed by Mr . Paulo Mwanga , a Muganda .
3 / - UGANDA NATIONAL LIBERATION FRONT ( UNLF ) - March , 1979 :
3 .1 . Raison d ' e^tre
3 . 1. 1 Attended by the delegates of twenty eight ( 28 ) political groups representing the peoples of the East Nile / Uganda and who assembled in Moshi , Tanzania, during the period March 23v - 29 , 1979 , and placed under the Chairmanshipof Associate Professor Tarsis B . Kabyegyere , a Muhiru from Ankole , the UNLF aimed to unite and organise the ethnic peoples of the East Nile / Uganda against the Sudanics Ethnic people ( i.e Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndu , Kebu , Lendu , Logo , ---- etc ---- of the West Nile / Lado , with a view to overthrowing the Idi Amin Regime . It was intended also against the Muslims or the Sympathisers and Collaborators of the Islamic Faith in the East Nile / Uganda and the West Nile / Lado .
3 .1 .2 The Tanzanian Government of Mr . Julius Nyerere offered the Tanania Peoples Defence Forces ( tpdf ) , as well as the Land of Tanzania to be used by more forces from some other Countries in Africa and outside Africa , for the Operations .Both the TPDF and the Non - Tanzanian forces from Africa and outside Africa took part in fighting the 1978 / 79 Uganda war to overthrow President Idi Amin and his Regime .
3 . 2 FORMATION
3. 2 . 1 . The Uganda National Liberation Front ( UNLF ) was formed by the Luo / Nilotic people ( i.e . the Acholi , Lango - Omiru , Alur , -- etc --- ) , the Bantu people ( i. e . the Baganda , Basoga , Banyakole , Batoro , Bakiga , , Bagisu , Banyaro , --- etc --- and the Nile - Hamatic people ( i . e . the Ateso , Karamajong , Lango - Dyang , --- etc --- ) , all of them from the East Nile / Uganda , to fight the Sudanic people of the West Nile / Lado . ( i .e . the Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndu , Ke ' bu , Lendu , Logo , --- etc --- ) and the Muslims in the East Nile / Uganda and West Nile / Lado .
3 . 2 . 2 There were intenxely organised diplomatic manoevours under the name of the Republic of Tanzania with Mr . Julius Nyerere as the Chief Executive Authority to coordinate , and in whose name the overall operations of the Uganda war on the Sudanics of 1978 / 79 were conducted by Non - Tanzanians from outside the Continent of Africa .
3 . 2 . 3 . Many Countrues in the other continents, namely , Europe , America , Asia and Ocenia, participated very effectivelyin various capacities and abilities in support of the UNLF in the Uganda war of 1978 / 79 against the Sudanic people of the West Nile / Lado , who are regarded in Uganda as Foreigners due to the fact they had been part of ZAIRE / ( CONGO ) , known then as the Congo Free State ., and the Sudan between 1892 and 1920 , before their Association with Uganda - British Protectorate . which became effective in 1926 following the five years War of 1914 - 1919 between Lugbari and the British .
3 .3 REVENGE PHYILOSOPHY
3 . 3 . 1 It was during the last quarter of 19th Centuary , when European Colonial powers were rushing to grab any piece of Land they could fimd in Africa , that the Sudanic people came into contact with the British people .Ever since that period , the relations between the Sudanic people and the British people are conflictual . For the Sudanic have been awaret hat the Britsh people are all out to gtab and occupy their Land . The following events are the illustrations of the conflictual nature of the Anglo - Sudanic Relations :
a / - 1880 - 1882 The attack of the Sudanic people by a British force commanded by Lieutanant - Colonel - William Hicks . The attack was beaten off in 1882 . Of the 11, 000 invading soldiiers , about 200 got away alive .
b / - 1884 The expulsion by Commadant Karram Allah from Lado town of a foreign administration of occupation with Dr Edward Schnditzner , an Austrian who was in the serice of Britain and who iscommonly known in history as Dr Emin Pasha , as the head . There after , Dr Emin Pasha set up another administration of foreign occupation in Wadelai .
c / - 1889 : The explusion by Commadant Fadh - el - Mula Aga . a Lugbari tribe , of the second administration of foreign occupation set up by Dr . Emin Pasha .in Wadelai .
d / - 1896 - 1899 : The Lado War , commonly known in History as the Mahdist War , in which the British forces were commanded by Gen . Horatio Kitcherner .
e / - 1897 - 1900 : The Sudanese Mutiny , sometimes known as the Uganda Mutiny , by the Sudanic Solduers . As a result of it , Commanant Bilal Amin ( Grand Father of Idi Amin Awong Dada who became President of Uganda in 1971 ) was executed by the British for having refused to fight his own people Sudanics in North Lado and to be used to kill the Ganda people for nothing .
f / - 1914 - 1919 : The Lugbari - British War
3. 3 . 2 The scats of these confrontations are still visible today . No suprise that anything connected with the Sudanic people stings for the British people . It makes them tick . They always search to destroy the Sudanic people in revenge . That is why the name of General Idi Amin was used as a pretext to massacre the Sudanic people in Uganda from 1979 ..
4 THE BRITISH UGANDA WAR ON LADO . ( SUDANICS OF WEST NILE / LADO ) - 1978 / 79
4 . 1 The details of this British Uganda war on Lado of 1978 / 79 will not be given in this article here . . They are already available in the report on the war . Here , only a few events will be pointed out to clarify both the points raised and our position as the Sudanic people .
4 . 2 The war simply refered to as Uganda War of 1978 / 79 could faintly be called the Third World War, in the sense that the whole world participated in the struggle in one way or another , with Kampala representing Berlin . Mr . Cyrus Vance , U .S . Secretary of State , stated that the War was costing U . S . dollars one million a day .
4 . 3 The cause of the war , in reality and in its totality , can be divided into three parts :
a / _ Foreign economic Interests in Uganda ,
b / - Revenge against the Sudanic people of the West Nile / Lado ;
c / - Hatred for the Sudanic people of the West Nile / Lado , who are considered by the ethic peoples of the East Nile / Uganda as Foreigners in , therefore unacceptable to rule Uganda ;
4 . 4 These three causes Led the Bantu people , the Luo / Nilotic , the Nilo - Hamitic people and others who are of Non - African origines , diplomatically backed up , supported , covered and pushed forward by Britain , the ( former ) colonising power , and organised into a fighting force known as the Uganda National Liberation Army ( UNLA ) , to declare war on Uganda occupied by the Sudanic people of Lado in 1979 .
4 . 5 . 1 The War is considered as the third war because all the Continents of the World , namely Africa , Europe , Asia , America and Ocenia , participated in it in one way or another . The invading forces consisted of the two following groups :
a / - The UNLA section of Luo people Led by Col . Tito Okello , an Acholi , and Lieut . Colonel. David Oyite - Ojok , a Langi ;
b / - The UNLA section of Bantu people Led by Mr . Paulo Mwanga, a Muganda , and Mr . Yoweri Museveni , a Muhima from Ankole .
c / - The UNLA section of Nilo - Hamitic people Led by Lieut . Col . William Omaria , an Ateso .
4 . 5 . 2 The Tanzania Peoples Defence Forces ( TPDF ) - Soldires from different countries in Africa and outside Africa were assembled in Tanzania under the name of the Tanzania Peoples Defences Forces ( TPDF ) . Placed under the overall umbrella of Tanzania , those TPDF were of three groups :
a / - The TPDF of Tanzanian citizens ;
b / - The TPDF of Non - Tanzanian Africans
c / - The TPDF of Non - Tanzanian Non - Africans .
4 . 6 The UNLA forces under 4 . 5 . 1 , above and the TPDF forces under 4 . 5 . 2 above formed , together , a total force of about 250 , 000 men against the Uganda National Army of about 25 - 30 , 000 men. But some independent reports have estimated the total number of the UNLA and TPDF who participated in fighting the Uganda war of 1978 / 79 to be between 300 , 000 and 350 , 000 men .
4 . 7 According to the planners, this third war was supposed to befought for a maximum of seven weeks before it could led to the overthrow of President Amin and his Regime .Though , officially , the War started in October , 1978 , the first short was actually fired in July , 1978 . So that this third World War , which had been planned to last a maximum of seven weeks , took seven months officially and ten months unofficially.
4 . 8 . It was on April 11th , 1979 , that Kampala, the Capital of Uganda , fell in the hands of the so - called Tanzanian Soldiers, who , in realty , wer different African and Non - African Soldiers under the overall command of Tanzania . The UNLF Excuctive Council was sworn in on April 13 , 1979 , with Mr . Yusuf Lulue as the President of Uganda .
5 . MASSACRE OF SUDANICS .
5 . 1 . The immediate consequence of the Uganda War of 1978 / 79 was the progressive , contious and systematic massacre of the Sudanic people ( i.e . Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndo , Ke ' bu , Lendu , Logo , ---etc --- ) in the areas that continued to fall under the control of the advancing UNLF and TPDF soldiers . The part played by the civilian population of the East Nile / Uganda in the massacre of the Sudanic people ( men , women and children ) who could not flee was conscpicous , outstanding and undeniable . Either the East Nile / Uganda civilian population themselves massaced the Sudanic people in their Areas using panga - knives in Southern Uganda and spears in Northern Uganda . Or they pointed , indicated or declared the Sudanic peple caught up by the war in their Areas as " Amin ' s people or called gangsters " , to the UNLA AND TPDF clearing forces , i .e . the UNLA and TPDF soldiers left behind to see to it that no enemy , that is to say no Sudanics , remained alive . They was these UNLA and TPDF clering soldiers who short dead the Sudanic people( men , women and children ) who were declared to them as " Amin 's People or Gangsters of Amin " , A JARGON AND EUPHEMISM which was and is being used to designate the Sudanic - Speaking Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndu , Ke ' bu , Lendu , Logo , Avukaya , Bari , Moru -- etc ------ from the West Nile / Lado .
5 . 1 . 1 . Those massacres of the Sudanic people ( men , women and children ) continued and went on unabated throughout the year .
5 . 2 LUOLAND ( Acholi , Lango , Alur , --- etc-------- ) :
5 . 2 . 1 All Sudanic people ( Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndu , Ke ' bu , Lendu , Logo , etc--- ( men , women , children ) , inclulding pupils in primary and secondary schools and students in colleges and post - secondary institutions of learning were killed in 1979 . No less than 15 , 000 Sudanic people were killed . All their property was either taken or destroyed . For example , the three hundred head of cattle belonging to Dr . Solomon . B . Asea , a physician of the Madindri tribe and a former of Uganda , were all slaughterd by the Acholi people for public feast . Worse still , the wife of Dr . Solomon B. Asea is an Achli , and Dr . Asea himself ended up by being shot dead in his house in Kampala , in 1984 .
5 . 2 . 2 Most of the 15 , 000 or so Sudanic people massacred in Luoland in 1979 were Ma ' di and Aringa
5 . 3 TESO
5 . 3 . 1 In Teso , about 16, 000 Sudanic people ( men , women , and children ) were massacred in 1979 on the orders of Lieut . Colonel William Omaria , Deputy Minister of Defence in the UNLF Government .
5 . 4 . ANKOLE AND TORO
5 . 4 . 1 In Ankole and Toro , about 25 , 000 Sudanic people ( men , women , children ) were massacred in 1979 , most of them being workers at the Kilembe Copper Mines . There also about 200 secondary school students killed in the two Areas in 1979 , some of them by their by their fellow students , others were handed over to the UNLA and TPDF clearing soldiers by the Headmasters of their schools .
5 . 5 . BUNYORO
5 . 5 . 1 The figures of the Sudanic people massacred in Bunyoro were modest , just 4 , 000 men , women and children .
5 . 6 BUGANDA
5 . 6 . 1 The situation was terrible forthe Sudanic people in Buganda . Over 45 , 000 of them ( men , women , and children ) were masscred in 1979 , mainly by the civilian population using panga - knives in places like Kawolo , Lugazi , Bugerere , Buddu , Luwero , Kawanda , Bwayise , Kabanyolo , Kawempe , Nakulobia , Makerere Kivulu , Kamwokya , -- etc ---
5 . 7 . BUSOGA
5 . 7 . 1 About 25 , 000 Sudanic people were massacred in Busoga in 1979 in 1979 . Most of those people were workers or Labourers at Kakira Sugar Plantation , Jinja Textile Factories , etc ---
5 . 8 BUGISU AND BUKEDI
5 . 8 . 1 About 10 , 000 Sudanic people were massacred in Bugisu and in Bukedi in 1979 . Many of them were buried in mass graves in Mbale .
5 . 9 KARAMOJA AND KIGEZI
5 . 9 . 1 It is only fron Karamoja and Kigezi that there are no reports received about massacres of the Sudanic people .
5 . 10 . WEST NILE / LADO
5 . 10 . 1 The mass Killings of the Sudanic people in West Nile / Lado followed immediately the overthrow of President Godfre Binaisa by the Military Commission of the UNLF on May 12 , 1980 . Those initial killings were the work of Banyankole soldiers belonging to the Bantu Section of the UNLA .
5 . 10 . 2 . Consdering the rivalry for tion between the Luo and Bantu Sections of the UNLA , the Banyankole soldiers belonging to the Bantu Section of the UNLA in the Bondo Barracks , in Vura County , West Nile / Lado , concluded , on hearing the radio announcement about the overthrow of President Binaisa , a Muganda , that their Leader , Mr Yoweri Museveni was killed . Thereafter , they left the Bondo Barracks with their guns and started to massacre the surrounding population , in Vura County .
5 . 10 . 3 . In October , 1980 , there was a planned and organised massacre of the Sudanic people in the Weast Nile / Lado by the UNLA . This massacre operation was commanded and supervised by the UNLA Chief of Staff , Brgadier David Oyite - Ojok , in person . Over 1000 , 000 people ( men , women . children ) were massacred in MA ' di - okollo , Vura , Ayivu , Ofudde , Maraca , Terego , Omogo , Koboko , Aringa .
5 . 10 . 4 In January, 1981 , about 42 , 000 Sudanic people were massacred in East Ma ' di by the Acholi Militia from Ktgum . At the same time , more people were being killed in what was called " Comb Up " operations in places like Kubala in Omogo , Aripea and Ocodri in Terego , Odravu and Lodonga in Aringa , Yivu and Tara in Ofude , Ocoko and Ajia in Vura , Ariwa in O i , Rhino - Camp ( Bura ) in Ma ' di - Ogoko ) , --- etc --- .
5 . 10 . 5 There were also intermittent killings of the Sudanic people everywhere in the West Nile / Lado from January , 1981 . Families ( husband , wife , children were put in their houses and the houses were then set on fire . Churches were packed with people and then set on fire . Anybody who tried to escape was short dead by the UNLF and TPDF . The same thing happened to the Schools . For example sixty ( 60 ) school s were burned alive at Mvara Senior Secondary School .And then , there was the massacre at Ombaci Catholic Mission , where the Staff of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees ( UNHCR ) and of the International Commitee of Red Cross ( ICRC ) were reduced to watch the Carnage as Spectators .
5 .11 OVERALL DESTRUCTION IN WEST NILE / LADO
5 . 11 . 1 . By the end of 1962 , the death toll of the Sudanic people ( i . e . the Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndu , Ke ' bu , Lendu , Logo , -- etc --- ) in the East / Nile / Uganda and West Nile / Lado had risen to over 200 , 000 men , women and chilldren . By the end of 1983 , this figure had risen to over 250 , 000 .
5 . 11 . 2 There was a general and a total destruction of buildings in West Nile / Lado , ranging from residential houses to hospitals and dispensaries , churches , and mosques , schools , shops and markets , etc ----
5 . 11 . 3 . Crops in stores / grannaries and in the fieds were burned into ashes . Farmland was destroyed as a result of scorched earth military operations . Trees werea also destroyed . The cotton ginneries at Rhino - Camp ( Bura ) and Packwach were blown up and destroyed .
5 . 11 . 4 All domestic animals were killed to mahe feasts for the soldiers . Lizards and rats were all killed in the the belief of the soldiers that the Sdanic people were witches who easily change , configurate themselves into animals . Even the famous remaining species of the White Rhinoceroses and the Elephants of the West Nile / Lado fled to exile and taken refuge in some African Countries .
5 . 11 . 5 . In the statement presented to the Second International Conference on Assistance to Refugees in Africa ( ICARA II ) , in Geneva , Switzerland , July 9 - 11 , 1984 , to request the international community for allocation of U . S . dollars 17 . 1 in respect of tthe West Nile / Lado , the Ugandan Government admitted that its Armed forces had commited the destructions ( summarised under 5 . 11 . above ) Cf . United Nations General Assembly Document A / conf . 125 / 2 , 23 March , 1984 , pp . 187 - 206 .
6 EFFECTS OF THE MASSACRES OF SUDANICS
6 . 1 About 150 , 000 Sudanic people ( Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndu , Lendu , Logo , etc --- ) became Displaced within the West Nile / Lado and the East Nli / Uganda . About 600 , 000 of the Sudanic Survivors were forced to flee into exile and became Refugees elsewhere in Africa , in the Sudan , in Zaire / Democratic Republic of Congo and in Kenya , and outside Africa . Thus , the West Nile / LADO became completely Depopulated . by the end of of 1982 .
6 .2 . The immense Majority of the people massacred in the East Nile / UGANDA were Workers or Labourers in the Sugar plantations and Tea estates , in the Coffee , Cotton , Tobacco , and Simsim fields , and in the Mines and Factories . They were not Replaced in all those Enterprises of Production , since the Ethnic peoples of East Nile / Uganda could not do the work they ( the Sudanic people ) used to do .
6 . 3 . Up to 1979 , the West Nile / Lado had been among the Leading Regions of Uganda in the production of crops like cotton , tobacco , groundnuts , simsim , cassava , millet , sorgum , maize , pease , and beans , etc ... . These crops were either exported to help boost Uganda ' s foreign exchange earnings , or used as raw marerials for the textile factories in Jinja , yhe cigarette factories in Jinja and in Kampala , the starch factory in Lira , the ediible oil factories in Jinja and Kawempe . , the Waragi factory in Port Bell , Kampala , etc -- 0r they were consumed internally as food .
6 . 4 . Mr Julius Nyerere ' s action that led to the Massacres of the Sudanic People in the East Nile / Uganda and the De populayion of the West Nile people / Lado has therefore served to deprive Uganda of the Largest part of its Production - agricultural , mineral , industrial . For Uganda lost the Manpower it used to have for its economic Development and Progress . Thus Uganda has become Empoverished and backward - developed to the Level of the Tanzanian Ujamah Villages , from which illiterate , bare - footed Tanzanian men were recruited to takepart in the invasion of Uganda in 1879 .
6 . 4 . 1 . Mr Yoweri Museveni , helped , knowingly , or unknowingly , to accelerrate this backward - development of Uganda through the " Nyumba Kumi "System , he imported from Tanzania as Forign Aid .
6 . 5 Therefore , it is not far - fetched to say that the Major and only intention of the Imternational conspiracies of the past period to Repatriate the Sudanic Refugees into Uganda by force is that those Refugees wouldbe used , upon their forced repatriation to Uganda , to replace the dead Sudanic producerd of agricultural , mineral , and industrial wealth for Uganda . Here was and is the brutal Colonial Politics and Human Violation justified by the the only crave and for profit . The Authority of Lado Government in Exile of the State Kingdom of Lado is against this British -Uganda Political Phylosoph designed for the total destruction and elimination of the Sudanic people.
7 . COMMENTS
7 . 1 Role Tanzania
7 . 1 . 1 . The part played by Tanzania in Uganda War of 1978 / 79 was Diplomatic , Strategic and Financial .
7 , 1 . 1 . 1 Diiplomatic : Tanzania was used to organise and conduct the diplomatic campaign against Uganda .
7 . 1 . 1 . 2 Strategic : offered its Land / Territory for training the East / Nile / Ugandan peoples to fight the Sudanic people , and for arranging for the needs and procurements of the weapons and equipments necessary for the war . Tanzania offered its Land / Territory for also assembling an international force for the British Government and the British people to protect thier interests in Uganda . The main areas of their interest in Uganda are Diplomatic and Cultural , Strategic , Economic , and Commercial .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . Diplomatic and Cultural
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 1 . It must be stated very clearly to starrt with that the core or the Central concept of the British Commonwealth is that the Monarch ( i . e . King or Queen ) of England as the Chief of State of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is the Head of State of every Member State of the British Commonwealth Contries .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 2 . Therefore Uganda as a State being a Member of the British Commonwealth , the Queen of England , H . M . Elizabeth II , is the Official and True Head of State ( or Chief of State ) of Uganda . The President of Uganda , being of the same and equal Status as the British Prime Minister , is the Head of Government ( or Chief of Government ) . In short he is the Number Two to Her Majesty the Queen of England .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 3 . One issue which confuses the ordinary , non Political mentor / mind is the Tactical switch and Compromise of Duties and / or Functions between the Act of Technicality , and Legality and Administration .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 4 . What is meant by this is that the Membership of the State of Uganda to the British Commonwealth Orgainisation makes her exercise its Independence within the Organisation itself only , as an Independent State equal to the rest of the Member States . But, outside the British Commonwealth Organisation , the Uganda State and this refers to every and each of the British Commonwealth Member States , is not Independent to exercise its Rights and Duties with a full Capacity as a Sovereign State .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 5 WHY ? THIS IS A VERY INTERESTING QUESTION TO ASK
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 6 Because its Sovereign Capacity is Invested , Vested and Entrusted to the British State to exercise by the Physical Person of the Monarch of England , who is the True Chief of State of Uganda . Therefore , the Uganda State is a Subordinate State to the British State in International Politics , with Restricted Capacity for Foreign Actions on its own .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 7 . The Diplomatic advantage of this for Britain is that no other Sovereign State of the World has Rights to deal with Uganda directly without the British O . K , PERMISSION , or CONCURRENCE . And , therefore , this Authorises Britain to organise the Affairs of Uganda in the way that suits best the British National Interests . In this Respect , the Diplomatic control of the Ugandan Affairs , also , gives Rise and Rights to the British to determine the issues of Leadership for Uganda , either by the British choosing the Person to be Leader , or by deciding the kind of Personality who is to be the Head of Government , that is to say the President of Uganda . . And , this means that the Ugandan Leader or President selected by Britain must protect the British Interests in Uganda and owe Allegiance to the Monarch ( i .e King or Queen ) of England as the Sovereign Chief / Head of State of State of Uganda , on the one hand , and to the Governor of the Anlican Church of Uganda , on the other hand . Here , it must be emphasised that the Sovereign Chief / Head of State of Uganda and the Governor of the Anglican Church of Uganda is the Monarch of England .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 8 The Cultural advantage for Britain is that the Training of the Attitude and Mentor and of its Authorities mst be controlled through the Socio - Cultural traits : The British Language , Religion , some Small favours or Considerations , like , Scholarships and Bursaries , etc --- So the English has become an Instrument for controlling the " Thinking Mind / Mentor " of the peoples of Uganda and Lado and it is this what is called in Uganda . No wonder NO WONDER WHEN THE COUNCIL OF STATE / SUPREME COUNCIL OF STATE / SCS OF UGANDA WAS FORMED IN THE PERIOD OF GENERAL IDI AMIN ADMINISTRATION FROM 1971 TO REPLACE TO REPLACE THE BRITISH SOVEREIGNITY OVER UGANDA , BRITAIN HAD TO DO ONE THING ONLY , THAT WAS AND TO REMOVE IDI AMIN AND HIS ADMINISTRATION FROM UGANDA . THIS IS THE TRUE REASON OF THE WAR ( 1978 / 79 ) AGAINST THE SUDANICS OF EAST NILE / UGANDA FOR BRITAIN TO REINSTATE HER SOVEREIGNITY OVER UGANDA AND TO KEEP LADO STATE UNDER HER CONTROLL BY FORCE .
7 . 2 . 1 . 2 Strategic .
7 . 2 . 1 . 2 . 1 . Uganda and Lado are in a very Strategic position in East Africa for Military purposes , on the one hand , and for the control of the Nile Valley and the Nile Headwaters from Kagera and Lake Nalubale / the so called Lake Victoria in British Language , on the other hand . It was because of these that the events of the period 1880 - 1920 took place between the Britsh and the Lado people ( the Sudanics ) .
7 . 2 . 1 . 2 . 2 The Strategic importance of the Nile Valley for the British was that its control would serve to protect the Sea route through the Indian Ocean to the British trade interests in the Near East and Far East .
7 . 2 . 1 . 2 . 3 At the same time , Uganda and Lado are seen by the British to offer a favourable ground for Military Training , and for the Stationing of British Soldiers for rapid deployment for operations around these Regions where British interests might be in danger and / or might need to be protected . The issue here then in short of a Military ground and logistics convinience for Military operations .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 Economics
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 1 . Uganda and Lado are rich . The land is fertile , the climate excellent with regolar and sufficient rains falling . The British have Vested Economic interests there .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 2 . The main British Economic in Uganda and Lado are the raw materials which are of two types :
a / - Agricultural Products - Coffee , Cotton , Tobacco , Tea , Sugar , etc ---
b / - Mineral Resources - Copper , Tin , Gold , Petroleum , Cement , Asbestors etc -----
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 3 . The avalaibility in Uganda and Lado of rich Land , plenty of water , energy resources such as waterfalls for hydo- electricity , petroleum , solar energy and bio - gas energy , and forests resources for both energy and constructions of different types inclulding buildings made it impossible for the British to leave the peoples of Uganda and Lado on their own .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 4 The Key to the British Economic interests in Uganda and Lado is the control of the Uganda / Lado Monetary and Fiscal Affairs , or Monetary System , so that the Forign Trade of Uganda and Lado is controlled by Britain ..This means that the Independence of Uganda and Lado in International Trade is controlled by Britain .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 5 By controlling the Monetary and Fiscal Affairs of Uganda and Lado , Britain succeeded to controll the free develoment of the National Reserve Fund Buildings , on the one hand , and the Foreign Trade Expansion of Uganda and Lado, on the other hand . The British Economic Interests in Uganda and Lado are protected in this way .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 6 . Hence forcing Uganda and Lado and their peoples to produce what Britain decides to be produced and how much of it to be produced . Through Uganda / Lado ' s Membership to the British Commonwealth Orgaisation , Britain is assured of all the agricultural and mineral resources of Uganda and Lado for her own , British National industries in the U . K . and in other Countries .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 7 . There is a cheap Labour force avalaible in Uganda and Lado to use to produce the agricultural and mineral raw materials needed for transfer to Britain . In otherwards in the Minds of the British , there is avalaible in Uganda and Lado a multitude of Respectable Slaves to be Exploited for the profit of the British people .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 8 Consequently , neither our agricultural resources , mineral resources , Labour resources , nor our waters , trees , and mountains are to be surrendered to the British people . On top of this , the same British turn around to insult us on this planet that they call the Earth " We do not know anything in the part of Africa . " .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 9 . In the end the only advantage from the Memmership to be part of Commonwealth Organisation is the Broad Day - Light Robbery of our Natural and Human Resources for the British people to enjoy ., while our own people are left to die every day of Hunger , Poverty , Diseases . In this way , our own people are converted into a Community of Assisted men
7 . 2 . 1 . 4 Cmmercial
7 . 2 . 1 . 4 . 1 . Britain does everything to control Uganda and Lado to protect the MARKETS for the British products and for the empolyment of the British people .
7 . 2 . 1 . 4 . 2 Uganda and Lado are a favourable market for the British manufactured goods . This is known as a GOODS MARKET .
7 . 2 . 1 . 4 . 3 . With its excellent climate , Uganda and Lado are converted by the British people as a Land to live in . Thus Uganda and Lado are a favourable Labour Market for the empolyment of the British people to work in .
7 . 2 . 1 . 4 . 4 Uganda and Lado are in addition a favourable Service Market for the Services rendered by the British professionals of all grounds and walks of life : - Lwyers , Bankers , Traders , Importers , Accountants , Physicians , Dentits , Nurses , Teachers , Engineers , Tour Operators , etc -------
7 . 3 . TANZANIAN INVOLVEMENT IN THE BRITISH EAST /NILE / UGANDA WAR ON THE SUDANIC PEOPLE OF WEST NILE / LADO .
7 . 3 . 1 To protect her Diplomatic and Cultural , Strategic , Economic , and Commercial interests in Uganda and Lado , Britain is always involved in all sorts of manipulations to control the Affairs of Uganda and Lado . The invasion of Uganda and Lado in 1978 / 79 by an International force of about 250 , 000 African and Non - African Soldiers operating from the soil of Tanzania was the result of those manipulations by Britain .
7 . 3 . 2 . The Invasion was organised and conducted from the soil of Tanzania because its Head of Government , President Julius Nyerere , was an Obedient Child of the British Commonwealth family , obeying the orders of the British Commonwealth family , Her Majesty the Queen of England .
7 . 3 . 3 By putting all the rsources of his Country at the disposal of Foreign Interests to attack Uganda and Lado , a negbouring African Country , Julius Nyerere , who took pride and always believed in being a Socialist Man and President , acted as an embodiment of the collusion between Imperialism and Socialism . And , he still claimed to be the Father of Africa . Where on earth does a Father sell his own Children to the others as Slaves ?
8 . THE VIEW
8 . 1 . The overall view of the Sudanic people of Lado and through the voice of the Sudanic Refugee Orgainisation and the Government in Exile of the State Kingdom of Lado and seen the events going on in Uganda and Lado since the invasion of Uganda and Lado in 1978 / 79 whereby large - scale killings of the trained manpwer of Uganda and Lado and whereby the peasants were also being killed and with the destruction of schools , hospitals , farmlands and crops , Uganda and Lado were being reduced to wretched dependence and mediocrty on this earth . In fact , since the overthrow of Idi Amin and his Regime , the Uganda Shillings got devalued from S hs . 7 / = to one U. S . dollar to Sh s . 2 , 500 / = to one U . S dollar in the International Money markets by the end of November 1985 . But , still today the devalution figures are tremendously astronomic . In this way , the agricultural and mineral products of Uganda today are being taken away free of charge by the Foreign Interests for whom President Julius Nyerere invaded Uganda and Lado .. This is a Broad Day - Light Robbery of the Resources of Uganda and Lado . Mr . Julius Nyerere was used as a Respectable African Head in this unprecedente bloodshed in Uganda . Poverty and Human misery have reached proportions never known of before in the History of Uganda and Lado . Today the peoples of Uganda and Lado ARE BEING ENSLAVED on their own soils to produce cheap agricultural goods for the British industries in the U . K and elsewhere . And , Uganda and Lado have become a dumbing site for the British Goods , Services , and Personnel . And yet , if Julius Nyerere had been a True African , and a True African Leader , he would have understood that his own offspring and his country had and would have everything to gain from a Uganda that was and is free than from a Uganda THAT IS AS BEGGARLY AS TANZANIA AND DEPEDENT .
8 . 1 . 1 . It is clearly therefore to note that since from the war which started from 1978 / 79 on the Sudanic people , the war is in its protracted form : in Political , Diplomatic and Military still . The Sudanics therefore are still in the war against them till today . In the Diplomatic manner the Brtish Agents and through their Country Allies are forcing on some Ladoan ( Sudanic People ) to sign now what they say and term it to be reconciliation Agreements with Ugandan Government . What is there to reconcile on ? What is that Crime the Sudanic People from West / Lado committed against Ugandans - East Nile / Uganda .now the The British Tricks are being well exposed now to Rule Lado through Uganda .
PUT ON YOUR VOICE FOR LADO INDEPENDENCE AND FREEDOM FROM BRITAIN DESTROYING ONE OF THIS WORLD ' S OLDEST KINGDOM YET IN AFRICA PLEASE

A BRIEF HISTORY NOTE AS A FOLLOW UP TO PARTS II AND III OF THE RISE AND FALL OF GENERAL IDI AMIN :
In 1890 Britain leased the LADO ENCLAVE (Sudan) to King Leopold of Belgium, in return for a corridor betwee n Lake Albert Edward and Lake Tanganyika ), in the so-called MACKINNON TREATY - in an attempt to link up the Cape to Cairo railway (connected by steamer across Lake Tanganyika). Germany protested against this arrangement; the treaty never was ratified.
In 1908, the Lado Enclave, which in fact never before had been under British administration, but as forming part of the Nile Basin was within British territorial claim, "reverted" to British rule and was, for the most part, administratively incorporated into the Sudan (1910), as were parts of Ugandan territory (Gondokoro); only the southern tip of the Lado Enclave was integrated into Uganda.
Why Does Britain Hate General Idi Amin From Lado , One Time President Of Uganda ?

THE BRITISH - UGANDA WAR ON LADO
( The Shaning of President Mr Julius Nyerere of Tanzania ) .
1 INTRODUCTION
1. 1 In October, 1978 , the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania, headed by President Julius . K . Nyerere as the Chief Execuctive Athourity , declared war on Uganda Officially . President Nyerere justified his action with the argument that he had been requested by the peoples of Uganda to overthrow President Idi Amin of Uganda , whom he accused of mismanaging Uganda . The delegates of the Peoples of Uganda , in whose name President Nyerere invaded Uganda , assembled in the Tanzanian town of Moshi , where they elaborated the Political justification to President Nyerere 's action against Uganda .
1 . 2 The writing of this paper here aims to bring out briefly the implications and the consequences of President Nyerere 's action for Uganda as a land and as a multinational community of African men .
2 . MOSHI CONFERENCE - March 23 - 29 , 1979 :
2 . 1 . Aims and Purposes
2 . 1 . 1 The Moshi Conference was attended by the delegates of the Peoples of the East Nile / Uganda , namely the Bantu people , the Luo / Nilotic people , the Nilo - Hamatic people and others who are of non - African origines . The Sudanic people of the West Nile / Lado ( i .e . the Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Lendu , Logo , Ndu , Avukaya , Bari , Muru , Gbanda o , Mundu --- etc --- ) were not required, therefore not invited , to attend it . It was held in Moshi , Tanzania , during the period of March 23 - 29 , 1979 . The Aim and Purposes were as follows :
a / - To remove President Idi Amin and his Regime from power in Uganda :
b / - To re - establish Democracy in Uganda without the West Nile / Lado which had been recognised as the Lado State by the International Community in 1892 before it became a Confederate State with the Uganda State in 1926 . , thirty two ( 32 ) years after the Uganda State had been created by the British in April , in 1894 . and thirty four ( 34 ) years after it had been recognised by the International Community in September 1892 :
c / - To re - establish the National Independence of Uganda .
2 . 2 IMPLICATIONS
2 . 2 . 1 The implication of 2 . 1 . 1 ( b ) above is that the West Nile / Lado was not needed in , and was not to be considered as part of Uganda . And the implication of 2 . 1 . 1 ( c ) above is that Uganda was not independent during the eight - years period of 1971 - 1979 , when it was ruled by the Sudanic People of West Nile / Lado with General Idi Amin , a Sudanic speaking Kakua as the President .This implication means , in turn that the Sudanic Speaking people of the West Nile / Lado are considered Foreigners in Uganda .
2 . 2 . 2 . It follows that the Idi Amin Regime was to be removed in Uganda , not because it was a regime of Military Dictatorship as was officially stated , but because , in the minds of the Delegates at the Moshi Conference of March , 1979 , it was a Regime of Foreigners from the West Nile / Lado .
2 . 3 . OUTCOME
2 . 3 . 1 The outcome of the Moshi Agreement Conference of 1979 was / is the Uganda National Liberation Front ( UNLF ) , which consisted of three Organs :
a / - An Executive Council , headed by Mr . Yusuf . K . Lulue a Muganda tribe Muslim who turned out later to be a Protestant :
b / - A legislative Councilknown as the National Consultative ( NCC ) , headed by Mr . Edward Rugumayo, a Mutoro from Western Region .
c / - A military council , which was refered to as the Militaru Commission or the Military Wing of the UNLF and which was headed by Mr . Paulo Mwanga , a Muganda .
3 / - UGANDA NATIONAL LIBERATION FRONT ( UNLF ) - March , 1979 :
3 .1 . Raison d ' e^tre
3 . 1. 1 Attended by the delegates of twenty eight ( 28 ) political groups representing the peoples of the East Nile / Uganda and who assembled in Moshi , Tanzania, during the period March 23v - 29 , 1979 , and placed under the Chairmanshipof Associate Professor Tarsis B . Kabyegyere , a Muhiru from Ankole , the UNLF aimed to unite and organise the ethnic peoples of the East Nile / Uganda against the Sudanics Ethnic people ( i.e Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndu , Kebu , Lendu , Logo , ---- etc ---- of the West Nile / Lado , with a view to overthrowing the Idi Amin Regime . It was intended also against the Muslims or the Sympathisers and Collaborators of the Islamic Faith in the East Nile / Uganda and the West Nile / Lado .
3 .1 .2 The Tanzanian Government of Mr . Julius Nyerere offered the Tanania Peoples Defence Forces ( tpdf ) , as well as the Land of Tanzania to be used by more forces from some other Countries in Africa and outside Africa , for the Operations .Both the TPDF and the Non - Tanzanian forces from Africa and outside Africa took part in fighting the 1978 / 79 Uganda war to overthrow President Idi Amin and his Regime .
3 . 2 FORMATION
3. 2 . 1 . The Uganda National Liberation Front ( UNLF ) was formed by the Luo / Nilotic people ( i.e . the Acholi , Lango - Omiru , Alur , -- etc --- ) , the Bantu people ( i. e . the Baganda , Basoga , Banyakole , Batoro , Bakiga , , Bagisu , Banyaro , --- etc --- and the Nile - Hamatic people ( i . e . the Ateso , Karamajong , Lango - Dyang , --- etc --- ) , all of them from the East Nile / Uganda , to fight the Sudanic people of the West Nile / Lado . ( i .e . the Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndu , Ke ' bu , Lendu , Logo , --- etc --- ) and the Muslims in the East Nile / Uganda and West Nile / Lado .
3 . 2 . 2 There were intenxely organised diplomatic manoevours under the name of the Republic of Tanzania with Mr . Julius Nyerere as the Chief Executive Authority to coordinate , and in whose name the overall operations of the Uganda war on the Sudanics of 1978 / 79 were conducted by Non - Tanzanians from outside the Continent of Africa .
3 . 2 . 3 . Many Countrues in the other continents, namely , Europe , America , Asia and Ocenia, participated very effectivelyin various capacities and abilities in support of the UNLF in the Uganda war of 1978 / 79 against the Sudanic people of the West Nile / Lado , who are regarded in Uganda as Foreigners due to the fact they had been part of ZAIRE / ( CONGO ) , known then as the Congo Free State ., and the Sudan between 1892 and 1920 , before their Association with Uganda - British Protectorate . which became effective in 1926 following the five years War of 1914 - 1919 between Lugbari and the British .
3 .3 REVENGE PHYILOSOPHY
3 . 3 . 1 It was during the last quarter of 19th Centuary , when European Colonial powers were rushing to grab any piece of Land they could fimd in Africa , that the Sudanic people came into contact with the British people .Ever since that period , the relations between the Sudanic people and the British people are conflictual . For the Sudanic have been awaret hat the Britsh people are all out to gtab and occupy their Land . The following events are the illustrations of the conflictual nature of the Anglo - Sudanic Relations :
a / - 1880 - 1882 The attack of the Sudanic people by a British force commanded by Lieutanant - Colonel - William Hicks . The attack was beaten off in 1882 . Of the 11, 000 invading soldiiers , about 200 got away alive .
b / - 1884 The expulsion by Commadant Karram Allah from Lado town of a foreign administration of occupation with Dr Edward Schnditzner , an Austrian who was in the serice of Britain and who iscommonly known in history as Dr Emin Pasha , as the head . There after , Dr Emin Pasha set up another administration of foreign occupation in Wadelai .
c / - 1889 : The explusion by Commadant Fadh - el - Mula Aga . a Lugbari tribe , of the second administration of foreign occupation set up by Dr . Emin Pasha .in Wadelai .
d / - 1896 - 1899 : The Lado War , commonly known in History as the Mahdist War , in which the British forces were commanded by Gen . Horatio Kitcherner .
e / - 1897 - 1900 : The Sudanese Mutiny , sometimes known as the Uganda Mutiny , by the Sudanic Solduers . As a result of it , Commanant Bilal Amin ( Grand Father of Idi Amin Awong Dada who became President of Uganda in 1971 ) was executed by the British for having refused to fight his own people Sudanics in North Lado and to be used to kill the Ganda people for nothing .
f / - 1914 - 1919 : The Lugbari - British War
3. 3 . 2 The scats of these confrontations are still visible today . No suprise that anything connected with the Sudanic people stings for the British people . It makes them tick . They always search to destroy the Sudanic people in revenge . That is why the name of General Idi Amin was used as a pretext to massacre the Sudanic people in Uganda from 1979 ..
4 THE BRITISH UGANDA WAR ON LADO . ( SUDANICS OF WEST NILE / LADO ) - 1978 / 79
4 . 1 The details of this British Uganda war on Lado of 1978 / 79 will not be given in this article here . . They are already available in the report on the war . Here , only a few events will be pointed out to clarify both the points raised and our position as the Sudanic people .
4 . 2 The war simply refered to as Uganda War of 1978 / 79 could faintly be called the Third World War, in the sense that the whole world participated in the struggle in one way or another , with Kampala representing Berlin . Mr . Cyrus Vance , U .S . Secretary of State , stated that the War was costing U . S . dollars one million a day .
4 . 3 The cause of the war , in reality and in its totality , can be divided into three parts :
a / _ Foreign economic Interests in Uganda ,
b / - Revenge against the Sudanic people of the West Nile / Lado ;
c / - Hatred for the Sudanic people of the West Nile / Lado , who are considered by the ethic peoples of the East Nile / Uganda as Foreigners in , therefore unacceptable to rule Uganda ;
4 . 4 These three causes Led the Bantu people , the Luo / Nilotic , the Nilo - Hamitic people and others who are of Non - African origines , diplomatically backed up , supported , covered and pushed forward by Britain , the ( former ) colonising power , and organised into a fighting force known as the Uganda National Liberation Army ( UNLA ) , to declare war on Uganda occupied by the Sudanic people of Lado in 1979 .
4 . 5 . 1 The War is considered as the third war because all the Continents of the World , namely Africa , Europe , Asia , America and Ocenia , participated in it in one way or another . The invading forces consisted of the two following groups :
a / - The UNLA section of Luo people Led by Col . Tito Okello , an Acholi , and Lieut . Colonel. David Oyite - Ojok , a Langi ;
b / - The UNLA section of Bantu people Led by Mr . Paulo Mwanga, a Muganda , and Mr . Yoweri Museveni , a Muhima from Ankole .
c / - The UNLA section of Nilo - Hamitic people Led by Lieut . Col . William Omaria , an Ateso .
4 . 5 . 2 The Tanzania Peoples Defence Forces ( TPDF ) - Soldires from different countries in Africa and outside Africa were assembled in Tanzania under the name of the Tanzania Peoples Defences Forces ( TPDF ) . Placed under the overall umbrella of Tanzania , those TPDF were of three groups :
a / - The TPDF of Tanzanian citizens ;
b / - The TPDF of Non - Tanzanian Africans
c / - The TPDF of Non - Tanzanian Non - Africans .
4 . 6 The UNLA forces under 4 . 5 . 1 , above and the TPDF forces under 4 . 5 . 2 above formed , together , a total force of about 250 , 000 men against the Uganda National Army of about 25 - 30 , 000 men. But some independent reports have estimated the total number of the UNLA and TPDF who participated in fighting the Uganda war of 1978 / 79 to be between 300 , 000 and 350 , 000 men .
4 . 7 According to the planners, this third war was supposed to befought for a maximum of seven weeks before it could led to the overthrow of President Amin and his Regime .Though , officially , the War started in October , 1978 , the first short was actually fired in July , 1978 . So that this third World War , which had been planned to last a maximum of seven weeks , took seven months officially and ten months unofficially.
4 . 8 . It was on April 11th , 1979 , that Kampala, the Capital of Uganda , fell in the hands of the so - called Tanzanian Soldiers, who , in realty , wer different African and Non - African Soldiers under the overall command of Tanzania . The UNLF Excuctive Council was sworn in on April 13 , 1979 , with Mr . Yusuf Lulue as the President of Uganda .
5 . MASSACRE OF SUDANICS .
5 . 1 . The immediate consequence of the Uganda War of 1978 / 79 was the progressive , contious and systematic massacre of the Sudanic people ( i.e . Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndo , Ke ' bu , Lendu , Logo , ---etc --- ) in the areas that continued to fall under the control of the advancing UNLF and TPDF soldiers . The part played by the civilian population of the East Nile / Uganda in the massacre of the Sudanic people ( men , women and children ) who could not flee was conscpicous , outstanding and undeniable . Either the East Nile / Uganda civilian population themselves massaced the Sudanic people in their Areas using panga - knives in Southern Uganda and spears in Northern Uganda . Or they pointed , indicated or declared the Sudanic peple caught up by the war in their Areas as " Amin ' s people or called gangsters " , to the UNLA AND TPDF clearing forces , i .e . the UNLA and TPDF soldiers left behind to see to it that no enemy , that is to say no Sudanics , remained alive . They was these UNLA and TPDF clering soldiers who short dead the Sudanic people( men , women and children ) who were declared to them as " Amin 's People or Gangsters of Amin " , A JARGON AND EUPHEMISM which was and is being used to designate the Sudanic - Speaking Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndu , Ke ' bu , Lendu , Logo , Avukaya , Bari , Moru -- etc ------ from the West Nile / Lado .
5 . 1 . 1 . Those massacres of the Sudanic people ( men , women and children ) continued and went on unabated throughout the year .
5 . 2 LUOLAND ( Acholi , Lango , Alur , --- etc-------- ) :
5 . 2 . 1 All Sudanic people ( Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndu , Ke ' bu , Lendu , Logo , etc--- ( men , women , children ) , inclulding pupils in primary and secondary schools and students in colleges and post - secondary institutions of learning were killed in 1979 . No less than 15 , 000 Sudanic people were killed . All their property was either taken or destroyed . For example , the three hundred head of cattle belonging to Dr . Solomon . B . Asea , a physician of the Madindri tribe and a former of Uganda , were all slaughterd by the Acholi people for public feast . Worse still , the wife of Dr . Solomon B. Asea is an Achli , and Dr . Asea himself ended up by being shot dead in his house in Kampala , in 1984 .
5 . 2 . 2 Most of the 15 , 000 or so Sudanic people massacred in Luoland in 1979 were Ma ' di and Aringa
5 . 3 TESO
5 . 3 . 1 In Teso , about 16, 000 Sudanic people ( men , women , and children ) were massacred in 1979 on the orders of Lieut . Colonel William Omaria , Deputy Minister of Defence in the UNLF Government .
5 . 4 . ANKOLE AND TORO
5 . 4 . 1 In Ankole and Toro , about 25 , 000 Sudanic people ( men , women , children ) were massacred in 1979 , most of them being workers at the Kilembe Copper Mines . There also about 200 secondary school students killed in the two Areas in 1979 , some of them by their by their fellow students , others were handed over to the UNLA and TPDF clearing soldiers by the Headmasters of their schools .
5 . 5 . BUNYORO
5 . 5 . 1 The figures of the Sudanic people massacred in Bunyoro were modest , just 4 , 000 men , women and children .
5 . 6 BUGANDA
5 . 6 . 1 The situation was terrible forthe Sudanic people in Buganda . Over 45 , 000 of them ( men , women , and children ) were masscred in 1979 , mainly by the civilian population using panga - knives in places like Kawolo , Lugazi , Bugerere , Buddu , Luwero , Kawanda , Bwayise , Kabanyolo , Kawempe , Nakulobia , Makerere Kivulu , Kamwokya , -- etc ---
5 . 7 . BUSOGA
5 . 7 . 1 About 25 , 000 Sudanic people were massacred in Busoga in 1979 in 1979 . Most of those people were workers or Labourers at Kakira Sugar Plantation , Jinja Textile Factories , etc ---
5 . 8 BUGISU AND BUKEDI
5 . 8 . 1 About 10 , 000 Sudanic people were massacred in Bugisu and in Bukedi in 1979 . Many of them were buried in mass graves in Mbale .
5 . 9 KARAMOJA AND KIGEZI
5 . 9 . 1 It is only fron Karamoja and Kigezi that there are no reports received about massacres of the Sudanic people .
5 . 10 . WEST NILE / LADO
5 . 10 . 1 The mass Killings of the Sudanic people in West Nile / Lado followed immediately the overthrow of President Godfre Binaisa by the Military Commission of the UNLF on May 12 , 1980 . Those initial killings were the work of Banyankole soldiers belonging to the Bantu Section of the UNLA .
5 . 10 . 2 . Consdering the rivalry for tion between the Luo and Bantu Sections of the UNLA , the Banyankole soldiers belonging to the Bantu Section of the UNLA in the Bondo Barracks , in Vura County , West Nile / Lado , concluded , on hearing the radio announcement about the overthrow of President Binaisa , a Muganda , that their Leader , Mr Yoweri Museveni was killed . Thereafter , they left the Bondo Barracks with their guns and started to massacre the surrounding population , in Vura County .
5 . 10 . 3 . In October , 1980 , there was a planned and organised massacre of the Sudanic people in the Weast Nile / Lado by the UNLA . This massacre operation was commanded and supervised by the UNLA Chief of Staff , Brgadier David Oyite - Ojok , in person . Over 1000 , 000 people ( men , women . children ) were massacred in MA ' di - okollo , Vura , Ayivu , Ofudde , Maraca , Terego , Omogo , Koboko , Aringa .
5 . 10 . 4 In January, 1981 , about 42 , 000 Sudanic people were massacred in East Ma ' di by the Acholi Militia from Ktgum . At the same time , more people were being killed in what was called " Comb Up " operations in places like Kubala in Omogo , Aripea and Ocodri in Terego , Odravu and Lodonga in Aringa , Yivu and Tara in Ofude , Ocoko and Ajia in Vura , Ariwa in O i , Rhino - Camp ( Bura ) in Ma ' di - Ogoko ) , --- etc --- .
5 . 10 . 5 There were also intermittent killings of the Sudanic people everywhere in the West Nile / Lado from January , 1981 . Families ( husband , wife , children were put in their houses and the houses were then set on fire . Churches were packed with people and then set on fire . Anybody who tried to escape was short dead by the UNLF and TPDF . The same thing happened to the Schools . For example sixty ( 60 ) school s were burned alive at Mvara Senior Secondary School .And then , there was the massacre at Ombaci Catholic Mission , where the Staff of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees ( UNHCR ) and of the International Commitee of Red Cross ( ICRC ) were reduced to watch the Carnage as Spectators .
5 .11 OVERALL DESTRUCTION IN WEST NILE / LADO
5 . 11 . 1 . By the end of 1962 , the death toll of the Sudanic people ( i . e . the Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndu , Ke ' bu , Lendu , Logo , -- etc --- ) in the East / Nile / Uganda and West Nile / Lado had risen to over 200 , 000 men , women and chilldren . By the end of 1983 , this figure had risen to over 250 , 000 .
5 . 11 . 2 There was a general and a total destruction of buildings in West Nile / Lado , ranging from residential houses to hospitals and dispensaries , churches , and mosques , schools , shops and markets , etc ----
5 . 11 . 3 . Crops in stores / grannaries and in the fieds were burned into ashes . Farmland was destroyed as a result of scorched earth military operations . Trees werea also destroyed . The cotton ginneries at Rhino - Camp ( Bura ) and Packwach were blown up and destroyed .
5 . 11 . 4 All domestic animals were killed to mahe feasts for the soldiers . Lizards and rats were all killed in the the belief of the soldiers that the Sdanic people were witches who easily change , configurate themselves into animals . Even the famous remaining species of the White Rhinoceroses and the Elephants of the West Nile / Lado fled to exile and taken refuge in some African Countries .
5 . 11 . 5 . In the statement presented to the Second International Conference on Assistance to Refugees in Africa ( ICARA II ) , in Geneva , Switzerland , July 9 - 11 , 1984 , to request the international community for allocation of U . S . dollars 17 . 1 in respect of tthe West Nile / Lado , the Ugandan Government admitted that its Armed forces had commited the destructions ( summarised under 5 . 11 . above ) Cf . United Nations General Assembly Document A / conf . 125 / 2 , 23 March , 1984 , pp . 187 - 206 .
6 EFFECTS OF THE MASSACRES OF SUDANICS
6 . 1 About 150 , 000 Sudanic people ( Lugbari , Ma ' di , Kakua , Ndu , Lendu , Logo , etc --- ) became Displaced within the West Nile / Lado and the East Nli / Uganda . About 600 , 000 of the Sudanic Survivors were forced to flee into exile and became Refugees elsewhere in Africa , in the Sudan , in Zaire / Democratic Republic of Congo and in Kenya , and outside Africa . Thus , the West Nile / LADO became completely Depopulated . by the end of of 1982 .
6 .2 . The immense Majority of the people massacred in the East Nile / UGANDA were Workers or Labourers in the Sugar plantations and Tea estates , in the Coffee , Cotton , Tobacco , and Simsim fields , and in the Mines and Factories . They were not Replaced in all those Enterprises of Production , since the Ethnic peoples of East Nile / Uganda could not do the work they ( the Sudanic people ) used to do .
6 . 3 . Up to 1979 , the West Nile / Lado had been among the Leading Regions of Uganda in the production of crops like cotton , tobacco , groundnuts , simsim , cassava , millet , sorgum , maize , pease , and beans , etc ... . These crops were either exported to help boost Uganda ' s foreign exchange earnings , or used as raw marerials for the textile factories in Jinja , yhe cigarette factories in Jinja and in Kampala , the starch factory in Lira , the ediible oil factories in Jinja and Kawempe . , the Waragi factory in Port Bell , Kampala , etc -- 0r they were consumed internally as food .
6 . 4 . Mr Julius Nyerere ' s action that led to the Massacres of the Sudanic People in the East Nile / Uganda and the De populayion of the West Nile people / Lado has therefore served to deprive Uganda of the Largest part of its Production - agricultural , mineral , industrial . For Uganda lost the Manpower it used to have for its economic Development and Progress . Thus Uganda has become Empoverished and backward - developed to the Level of the Tanzanian Ujamah Villages , from which illiterate , bare - footed Tanzanian men were recruited to takepart in the invasion of Uganda in 1879 .
6 . 4 . 1 . Mr Yoweri Museveni , helped , knowingly , or unknowingly , to accelerrate this backward - development of Uganda through the " Nyumba Kumi "System , he imported from Tanzania as Forign Aid .
6 . 5 Therefore , it is not far - fetched to say that the Major and only intention of the Imternational conspiracies of the past period to Repatriate the Sudanic Refugees into Uganda by force is that those Refugees wouldbe used , upon their forced repatriation to Uganda , to replace the dead Sudanic producerd of agricultural , mineral , and industrial wealth for Uganda . Here was and is the brutal Colonial Politics and Human Violation justified by the the only crave and for profit . The Authority of Lado Government in Exile of the State Kingdom of Lado is against this British -Uganda Political Phylosoph designed for the total destruction and elimination of the Sudanic people.
7 . COMMENTS
7 . 1 Role Tanzania
7 . 1 . 1 . The part played by Tanzania in Uganda War of 1978 / 79 was Diplomatic , Strategic and Financial .
7 , 1 . 1 . 1 Diiplomatic : Tanzania was used to organise and conduct the diplomatic campaign against Uganda .
7 . 1 . 1 . 2 Strategic : offered its Land / Territory for training the East / Nile / Ugandan peoples to fight the Sudanic people , and for arranging for the needs and procurements of the weapons and equipments necessary for the war . Tanzania offered its Land / Territory for also assembling an international force for the British Government and the British people to protect thier interests in Uganda . The main areas of their interest in Uganda are Diplomatic and Cultural , Strategic , Economic , and Commercial .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . Diplomatic and Cultural
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 1 . It must be stated very clearly to starrt with that the core or the Central concept of the British Commonwealth is that the Monarch ( i . e . King or Queen ) of England as the Chief of State of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is the Head of State of every Member State of the British Commonwealth Contries .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 2 . Therefore Uganda as a State being a Member of the British Commonwealth , the Queen of England , H . M . Elizabeth II , is the Official and True Head of State ( or Chief of State ) of Uganda . The President of Uganda , being of the same and equal Status as the British Prime Minister , is the Head of Government ( or Chief of Government ) . In short he is the Number Two to Her Majesty the Queen of England .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 3 . One issue which confuses the ordinary , non Political mentor / mind is the Tactical switch and Compromise of Duties and / or Functions between the Act of Technicality , and Legality and Administration .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 4 . What is meant by this is that the Membership of the State of Uganda to the British Commonwealth Orgainisation makes her exercise its Independence within the Organisation itself only , as an Independent State equal to the rest of the Member States . But, outside the British Commonwealth Organisation , the Uganda State and this refers to every and each of the British Commonwealth Member States , is not Independent to exercise its Rights and Duties with a full Capacity as a Sovereign State .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 5 WHY ? THIS IS A VERY INTERESTING QUESTION TO ASK
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 6 Because its Sovereign Capacity is Invested , Vested and Entrusted to the British State to exercise by the Physical Person of the Monarch of England , who is the True Chief of State of Uganda . Therefore , the Uganda State is a Subordinate State to the British State in International Politics , with Restricted Capacity for Foreign Actions on its own .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 7 . The Diplomatic advantage of this for Britain is that no other Sovereign State of the World has Rights to deal with Uganda directly without the British O . K , PERMISSION , or CONCURRENCE . And , therefore , this Authorises Britain to organise the Affairs of Uganda in the way that suits best the British National Interests . In this Respect , the Diplomatic control of the Ugandan Affairs , also , gives Rise and Rights to the British to determine the issues of Leadership for Uganda , either by the British choosing the Person to be Leader , or by deciding the kind of Personality who is to be the Head of Government , that is to say the President of Uganda . . And , this means that the Ugandan Leader or President selected by Britain must protect the British Interests in Uganda and owe Allegiance to the Monarch ( i .e King or Queen ) of England as the Sovereign Chief / Head of State of State of Uganda , on the one hand , and to the Governor of the Anlican Church of Uganda , on the other hand . Here , it must be emphasised that the Sovereign Chief / Head of State of Uganda and the Governor of the Anglican Church of Uganda is the Monarch of England .
7 . 2 . 1 . 1 . 8 The Cultural advantage for Britain is that the Training of the Attitude and Mentor and of its Authorities mst be controlled through the Socio - Cultural traits : The British Language , Religion , some Small favours or Considerations , like , Scholarships and Bursaries , etc --- So the English has become an Instrument for controlling the " Thinking Mind / Mentor " of the peoples of Uganda and Lado and it is this what is called in Uganda . No wonder NO WONDER WHEN THE COUNCIL OF STATE / SUPREME COUNCIL OF STATE / SCS OF UGANDA WAS FORMED IN THE PERIOD OF GENERAL IDI AMIN ADMINISTRATION FROM 1971 TO REPLACE TO REPLACE THE BRITISH SOVEREIGNITY OVER UGANDA , BRITAIN HAD TO DO ONE THING ONLY , THAT WAS AND TO REMOVE IDI AMIN AND HIS ADMINISTRATION FROM UGANDA . THIS IS THE TRUE REASON OF THE WAR ( 1978 / 79 ) AGAINST THE SUDANICS OF EAST NILE / UGANDA FOR BRITAIN TO REINSTATE HER SOVEREIGNITY OVER UGANDA AND TO KEEP LADO STATE UNDER HER CONTROLL BY FORCE .
7 . 2 . 1 . 2 Strategic .
7 . 2 . 1 . 2 . 1 . Uganda and Lado are in a very Strategic position in East Africa for Military purposes , on the one hand , and for the control of the Nile Valley and the Nile Headwaters from Kagera and Lake Nalubale / the so called Lake Victoria in British Language , on the other hand . It was because of these that the events of the period 1880 - 1920 took place between the Britsh and the Lado people ( the Sudanics ) .
7 . 2 . 1 . 2 . 2 The Strategic importance of the Nile Valley for the British was that its control would serve to protect the Sea route through the Indian Ocean to the British trade interests in the Near East and Far East .
7 . 2 . 1 . 2 . 3 At the same time , Uganda and Lado are seen by the British to offer a favourable ground for Military Training , and for the Stationing of British Soldiers for rapid deployment for operations around these Regions where British interests might be in danger and / or might need to be protected . The issue here then in short of a Military ground and logistics convinience for Military operations .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 Economics
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 1 . Uganda and Lado are rich . The land is fertile , the climate excellent with regolar and sufficient rains falling . The British have Vested Economic interests there .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 2 . The main British Economic in Uganda and Lado are the raw materials which are of two types :
a / - Agricultural Products - Coffee , Cotton , Tobacco , Tea , Sugar , etc ---
b / - Mineral Resources - Copper , Tin , Gold , Petroleum , Cement , Asbestors etc -----
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 3 . The avalaibility in Uganda and Lado of rich Land , plenty of water , energy resources such as waterfalls for hydo- electricity , petroleum , solar energy and bio - gas energy , and forests resources for both energy and constructions of different types inclulding buildings made it impossible for the British to leave the peoples of Uganda and Lado on their own .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 4 The Key to the British Economic interests in Uganda and Lado is the control of the Uganda / Lado Monetary and Fiscal Affairs , or Monetary System , so that the Forign Trade of Uganda and Lado is controlled by Britain ..This means that the Independence of Uganda and Lado in International Trade is controlled by Britain .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 5 By controlling the Monetary and Fiscal Affairs of Uganda and Lado , Britain succeeded to controll the free develoment of the National Reserve Fund Buildings , on the one hand , and the Foreign Trade Expansion of Uganda and Lado, on the other hand . The British Economic Interests in Uganda and Lado are protected in this way .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 6 . Hence forcing Uganda and Lado and their peoples to produce what Britain decides to be produced and how much of it to be produced . Through Uganda / Lado ' s Membership to the British Commonwealth Orgaisation , Britain is assured of all the agricultural and mineral resources of Uganda and Lado for her own , British National industries in the U . K . and in other Countries .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 7 . There is a cheap Labour force avalaible in Uganda and Lado to use to produce the agricultural and mineral raw materials needed for transfer to Britain . In otherwards in the Minds of the British , there is avalaible in Uganda and Lado a multitude of Respectable Slaves to be Exploited for the profit of the British people .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 8 Consequently , neither our agricultural resources , mineral resources , Labour resources , nor our waters , trees , and mountains are to be surrendered to the British people . On top of this , the same British turn around to insult us on this planet that they call the Earth " We do not know anything in the part of Africa . " .
7 . 2 . 1 . 3 . 9 . In the end the only advantage from the Memmership to be part of Commonwealth Organisation is the Broad Day - Light Robbery of our Natural and Human Resources for the British people to enjoy ., while our own people are left to die every day of Hunger , Poverty , Diseases . In this way , our own people are converted into a Community of Assisted men
7 . 2 . 1 . 4 Cmmercial
7 . 2 . 1 . 4 . 1 . Britain does everything to control Uganda and Lado to protect the MARKETS for the British products and for the empolyment of the British people .
7 . 2 . 1 . 4 . 2 Uganda and Lado are a favourable market for the British manufactured goods . This is known as a GOODS MARKET .
7 . 2 . 1 . 4 . 3 . With its excellent climate , Uganda and Lado are converted by the British people as a Land to live in . Thus Uganda and Lado are a favourable Labour Market for the empolyment of the British people to work in .
7 . 2 . 1 . 4 . 4 Uganda and Lado are in addition a favourable Service Market for the Services rendered by the British professionals of all grounds and walks of life : - Lwyers , Bankers , Traders , Importers , Accountants , Physicians , Dentits , Nurses , Teachers , Engineers , Tour Operators , etc -------
7 . 3 . TANZANIAN INVOLVEMENT IN THE BRITISH EAST /NILE / UGANDA WAR ON THE SUDANIC PEOPLE OF WEST NILE / LADO .
7 . 3 . 1 To protect her Diplomatic and Cultural , Strategic , Economic , and Commercial interests in Uganda and Lado , Britain is always involved in all sorts of manipulations to control the Affairs of Uganda and Lado . The invasion of Uganda and Lado in 1978 / 79 by an International force of about 250 , 000 African and Non - African Soldiers operating from the soil of Tanzania was the result of those manipulations by Britain .
7 . 3 . 2 . The Invasion was organised and conducted from the soil of Tanzania because its Head of Government , President Julius Nyerere , was an Obedient Child of the British Commonwealth family , obeying the orders of the British Commonwealth family , Her Majesty the Queen of England .
7 . 3 . 3 By putting all the rsources of his Country at the disposal of Foreign Interests to attack Uganda and Lado , a negbouring African Country , Julius Nyerere , who took pride and always believed in being a Socialist Man and President , acted as an embodiment of the collusion between Imperialism and Socialism . And , he still claimed to be the Father of Africa . Where on earth does a Father sell his own Children to the others as Slaves ?
8 . THE VIEW
8 . 1 . The overall view of the Sudanic people of Lado and through the voice of the Sudanic Refugee Orgainisation and the Government in Exile of the State Kingdom of Lado and seen the events going on in Uganda and Lado since the invasion of Uganda and Lado in 1978 / 79 whereby large - scale killings of the trained manpwer of Uganda and Lado and whereby the peasants were also being killed and with the destruction of schools , hospitals , farmlands and crops , Uganda and Lado were being reduced to wretched dependence and mediocrty on this earth . In fact , since the overthrow of Idi Amin and his Regime , the Uganda Shillings got devalued from S hs . 7 / = to one U. S . dollar to Sh s . 2 , 500 / = to one U . S dollar in the International Money markets by the end of November 1985 . But , still today the devalution figures are tremendously astronomic . In this way , the agricultural and mineral products of Uganda today are being taken away free of charge by the Foreign Interests for whom President Julius Nyerere invaded Uganda and Lado .. This is a Broad Day - Light Robbery of the Resources of Uganda and Lado . Mr . Julius Nyerere was used as a Respectable African Head in this unprecedente bloodshed in Uganda . Poverty and Human misery have reached proportions never known of before in the History of Uganda and Lado . Today the peoples of Uganda and Lado ARE BEING ENSLAVED on their own soils to produce cheap agricultural goods for the British industries in the U . K and elsewhere . And , Uganda and Lado have become a dumbing site for the British Goods , Services , and Personnel . And yet , if Julius Nyerere had been a True African , and a True African Leader , he would have understood that his own offspring and his country had and would have everything to gain from a Uganda that was and is free than from a Uganda THAT IS AS BEGGARLY AS TANZANIA AND DEPEDENT .
8 . 1 . 1 . It is clearly therefore to note that since from the war which started from 1978 / 79 on the Sudanic people , the war is in its protracted form : in Political , Diplomatic and Military still . The Sudanics therefore are still in the war against them till today . In the Diplomatic manner the Brtish Agents and through their Country Allies are forcing on some Ladoan ( Sudanic People ) to sign now what they say and term it to be reconciliation Agreements with Ugandan Government . What is there to reconcile on ? What is that Crime the Sudanic People from West / Lado committed against Ugandans - East Nile / Uganda .now the The British Tricks are being well exposed now to Rule Lado through Uganda .
PUT ON YOUR VOICE FOR LADO INDEPENDENCE AND FREEDOM FROM BRITAIN DESTROYING ONE OF THIS WORLD ' S OLDEST KINGDOM YET IN AFRICA PLEASE

She was buried alive in 1916 by the British Army. ( The British Army was defeated here in 1916 in the Battle of Erea at the foot of Mount Iti ) . The British still have never forgotten this Battle as an Issue to Hate Lado and to see that Lado does not exist any more for the World people to know this History event .
That is why She ( Britain ) is using all the Political , Diplomatic wars and now including Military War using her Satellite Africans Countries ( Commonwealth Countries in Africa ) to Hide and Destroy the People of Lado and the Land Kingdom Lado . The State of Uganda , DR Congo , Kenya , and the State of Sudan as Neighbouring to Lado are Spearheading the Military Operations right deep in Lado now .

1967 ----------------- A new political Constitution after being draughted in 1966 was passed in Uganda Parliament , without allowing a debate on it in 1967 . ( intention was to hide the knowledge that Lado is a seperate State from Uganda since 1892 . ) .
1971 ----------------- Uganda ' s plot for the Extermination came into picture in 1971 of the 1967 Master plan to finalise but failed in carrying it out in January 1971 . The result came out of the over throw of the President of Uganda Mr Apollo Milton Obote ( a Luo trbe of Uganda State . ) . And by the Military Hierachy Major General Idi Amin ( a Sudanic - Kakua by tribe from Lado ) took over the State Affairs of Uganda on 25th January 1971 ) . In the re - orgainsation of the State of Uganda General Idi Amin thought it wise to take back the Sovereignity of Uganda to view the Uganda - Lado relations . This became a big blow defeat for the British . The Sudanic ( Ladoan people ) in Uganda and Lado finally had to be wiped off completly in a war to be declared over Lado and her people
1975 ----------------- London Agreement of 1975 was reached . It was worked out in Lusaka in Zambia between Uganda and Britain , inclulding other commonwealth countries to fight the Sudanic tribes of the State of Lado .
1978 / 9 : ---------- War was declared on Lado and its people ( predominately Sudanic race ) which lasted from 6th October 1978 to April 1979 , whereby 250, 000 soldiers were assembled from all over the World especially from the British Commonwealth Countries and from the Political allies of Britain . In the diplomatc channel it was Denmark , a strong British ally who undertook running the diplomatic machinary to impliment the war and was the one who raised the issue in the United Nations under the cover that the war in Uganda was necessary to over throw the World ' s worst Dictator ever known , General Idi Amin . General Idi Amin is a Kakua - Sudanic tribe in Lado . After the over throw of Idi Amin , the coming true President of Uganda Mr, Yusuf Lule said " the Nile is betwwen us " , confirming the existence of the two States : i.e Lado ( since 1892 ) and Uganda ( since 1894 )
March 1979 ----- The Uganda Ethnic groups ( Bantu , Nilotics / Luo and Nilo Hamatics and of Tanzania and Africans held " Moshi Agreement " in Tanzania , finally to impliment the London Agreement of 1975.
1980 / 1 ----------- From 1979 to 1981 massive massacres of the Sudanics in the Southern Lado ( West Nile ) , in Uganda and in other East African Countries inclulding total destruction of Properties in this part of Lado ( both Private and Public properties ) were carried out in order to occupy Lado land ( cf ; Uganda plans of 1967 and Uganda decree of 12 May 1980 , Art. 5 and Art. 10 ) , This was done with full cooperation of Tanzania . The prospectve still continues under different forms of coverages .
From March 1982 -------- Massive killings continued in South Lado Regions supported by the British Flancoster and the S .A. S ( Special Air Service ) including the Military Personel , the British ( CO ' s and NO ' s ) who were sent to Uganda and later to West Nile ( South Lado ) in their explicit way " Military Language " they say the British Officers are only there in Uganda to train Ugandan Military Officers as they were called on to go there on the request or on the Orders of Mr Milton Obote and Mr Yoweri Museveni inorder to fight against the Gorrillas in the Region ( The West NIle Bank Front / Military Wing ) . But Britain knows , West Nile is South Lado Region of the State Kingdom ( KAARI ) of Lado .. Meanwhile the truth is that : Lado people are Defending their Borders, their Land, their Natural Resources and their People as best they can, which is their Right under the UN Charter of 26 June 1945, Article 1, Article 51 and Article 73, including all the relevant instruments of United Nations and International Law
7th March 1987 ------ The Lado Provisional Government, was formally proclaimed and established on 7 March 1987 in Arua - Aru in Lado ( Africa ),
The British Attitude continues to be well seen within to influence the other Eurpean Nations towards Lado in Africa
1999 -- The latest evidence is in 1999, when the European Governments have in the pretext to destroy African Unity which was giving African people a Leeway to true Independence , Politically, Economically and Socially. They simply concocted the African Union based on the European Union and created something called NEPAD ( New Partnership for African Development ), which officially is supposed to be a Partnership between Africa and Europeans. " This is what one can only call simply a devised New system of Domination on the African People and to control the African Minds " .
The British, who have been sharing the Occupation of Lado with Belgium since 1947, are doing everything in their Power, and are using their Position in International Affairs and in the UN Security Council, to kill the State of Lado, and they are using their former African Colonies, their African Protectorates and their African Territories to do just that .
Britain's Prime Minister Tony Blair's African Creation, the " Africa Commission ' has been set in motion with the main objective to finish off and Annihilate the State of Lado and to erase all trace of the Lado People from World Records .This is NO SECREET to a mindful Person . The Government Policy of His New Labour Party for Africa is no different from the former Old Labour Party under the Predecessor led by Rt . Hon. Clement Richard Atlee as the Prime Minister of Britain and during His Reign in 1948 ,The Agofe / King , Atabua of Lado was Assassinated
The Republic of South Africa and the Republic of Nigeria have been chosen to spearhead this Initiative, and in this capacity The Republic of South Africa and The Republic of Nigeria today have been appointed Britain ' s African Commissioner for NEPAD .
By doing so, the Right Honourable Mr. Blair is covering ' British Conspiracy ' under the , Cloak of African Affairs and pretending that the Slaughter of a Nation and an Entire People - the Nation State of Lado and the People of Lado - are merely an ' African Affair ' to be dealt with solely by the African Union ( AU ) .
20001 ------------ Lado sent a Petition to the UN Security Council and requested the UN Secretary General to act under Article 99 of the UN Charter . The Lado Provisional Government is requesting the Political and Diplomatic Support from and through the UN in order to avoid the inevitable War for the Independence of Lado and the Sovereignty of Lado ( Central Africa ) . All that , the People of Lado want and demand is the Right to Freedom and Liberty from the Intolerable Situation of Foreign Occupation of Lado .
Lado has never been Colonised, although Occupied, in contrast to so many other African States. And therefore, No one has any Legal Right to Occupy Lado. The Lado People, demand Independence of Lado and Sovereignty of Lado, and therefore to build up their Nation to Prosper in Peaceful co - existence with their neighbouring Countries, Congo - Zaire, Sudan, Uganda, CAR ( Central African Republic ), Kenya , Ethiopia and with all Nations of the World .
Year 2005 ----- up to ?------------- Incidences in year 2005 against Lendu people and Killings at Ariwara , Yei on Ladoland are of a few to mention yet . A Multination Force consisting of 11,000 troops from ' Nations of the Willing ' were seen making a swift move of insurgence to North Lado ( Central Africa ). Officially they were believed to supervise the ' Nairobi Agreement' of 9 January 2005 which is to bring Peace between the Rebel Forces SPLM ( Sudan People's Liberation Movement ) and the Sudan Government in Khartoum . However the Truth is that : there is no doubt that behind the move is the long - term Objective to Destroy Lado, the Lado State in Central Africa situated in the Great Lakes Region and in the Nile-Congo Watershed Region, which is falsely shown or shall be shown in future on the Map as Southern Sudan and DR Congo. But it is the Northern Territory of Lado ( " Equatoria and Ituri Province of Lado " since 1871 ) . Unfortunately for Lado and Fortunately for Britain , this Operation is being carried out " New Occupation of Lado " Under the UN Banner . " The UN is assisting those who have been Waging a War against the Lado Issue of Independence since 1947 " . It looks then UN Security Council refuses to implement the UN General Assembly Resolution 1514 (XV) of 14 December 1960 and the UN General Assembly Resolution 43/47 of 22 November 1988, and which with a Majority Vote of the UN General Assembly can force the UN Security Council to abide to ", Britain is a Permanent Member of the Security anyway ! -- " Must have a say for Lado then in the course of time " . How long is it taking for Britain to let go Lado for her Freedom ------------- ? We do know that , in order to avoid having to fulfill the UN Resolutions and the Treaty, Britain and the US use the UN Charter, Article 12, for with this article they can block any issue that is not in their own interests from a vote among the membership countries in the UN Security Council itself.
11 March 2005 ------- Provisional Government of Lado asked once again the Agofe / King a Protest Letter to be sent to the UN Security Council, ( dated 11 March 2005 ) , The Security Council must Act . There is a Lack of International Recognition of the State of Lado as an Independent Sovereign State (Lado), and because of the Negligence of the International Community, and of the UN, anyone feels free to Loot and Kill in Lado
By refusing to allow the Independence and Sovereignty of LADO, Belgium and Britain are in Breach of The UN General Assembly Resolution 1514 ( XV ) of 14 December 1960 and the Article 1 and Article 73 of the UN Charter of 26 June 1945 and are the willing to see that the Holocaust of Lado continues under their Rule of Occupation . Now They are trying the best to rename Lado , The Southern Sudan Nation Build in the Years to come. They are hoping that should be done by 2011
GOD SAVE LADO !

Britain in her treacherous acts to destroy Lado decided on her own with War Campaigns against any of the Western powers who dared to enter into Lado Affairs , partitioned then , most of the Territory Lado Land ( Lado Enclave ) , incorporting it into the State of Sudan , except for a portion of the South , which is ceded to Uganda. 1910 - 1914 ---- Lado removed from World Map / Atlases by the British Authority .
1909 --------------------- Treaty of Dufile ( dufule ) between Lado and U S A ( For Cooperation ) . During the period of President . Theodore Roosevelt ( New York ) .
1914 - 1919 ------------ Britain and Lado entered into a military war battle which lasted for 5 years . In the war account , Princess Driciru was only Six Months old when she was killed by the British Army during this Lugbari (Lado - British) War of 1914-1919. She was buried alive in 1916 by the British Army. ( The British Army was defeated here in 1916 in the Battle of Erea at the foot of Mount Iti ) . The British still have never forgotten this Battle as an Issue to Hate Lado and to see that Lado does not exist any more for the World people to know this History event .
That is why She ( Britain ) is using all the Political , Diplomatic wars and now including Military War using her Satellite Africans Countries ( Commonwealth Countries in Africa ) to Hide and Destroy the People of Lado and the Land Kingdom Lado . The State of Uganda , DR Congo , Kenya , and the State of Sudan as Neighbouring to Lado are Spearheading the Military Operations right deep in Lado now . All this is to be done before 2011 and Lado to take a New name as The Black Christian Southern Sudan State . The 29 Tribes of Lado have to Disappear and be replaced by the Tribes of the Black Sudanese in the Sudan State , the Black Tribes from Uganda , Kenya and DR Congo and then to add the other Black Communities from the other parts of Africa and the World or may be brought in Refugee Settlements from other parts of the World . This is the British Plan being Supported Highly by U S A . It is the Road Map they are talking of as the creation of a New State " Southern Sudan " in Central Africa - Sudan which is actually Lado .
1920 ------------------- A Peace Agreement ( Truce ) was reached upon to end war between Britain and Lado ( Lado and Britain Signed ).. A Senior Police High Commissioner in South Africa Mr E.Weatherhead signed on behalf of the British Crown and hence was appointed to represent the British Crown to Lado .
24 July 1923. 1923 , Lausane Agreement ----------------- Ottoman Empire was dissolved by the Treaty of Lausanne of 24 July 1923. According to the Lausanne Treaty, the Ottoman Empire, which had now become the Republic of Turkey in 1923, had to relinquish all the Territories under the then Ottoman Empire. This included Egypt and LADO ( Equatoria Province of Egypt ), and meant that the Occupied Territories were and still remain Political Entities ( Nation States ) . That means that LADO should have been an Independent and Sovereign Nation State in 1923.
1926 -- 1934 --------- Atrocities in Lado under the British Governor - General, Sir John Maffey,
1927 ------------------ Her Majesty Queen Aliojeku was assassinated by the British in 1927 under the British Governor-General John Maffey ( former High Commissioner of North-West India, to-day Kashmir) .
1931 -- 1936 ---------- Tension between British occupant and Lado where war broke out into the Kakua - kajo - keji war . The United States ( U . S . A ) intervention by President Franklin D Roosevelt to end the war .
1940 ------------------- Agofe / King , His Majesty Lemiro's Reign culminated with his Assasination .
1945 - The Pan Africanism Association Formed ------ Agofe / King Atabua of Lado became the Chairman of African Chiefs / Heads in the Conference which was held in Manchester in 1945 , and Kwame Nkrumah (His first name was Francis) became the secretary and Jomo Kenyatta (His real name was Johnston Kamau) he became assistant secretary. But the Agofe / King will be Assassinated because He asked USSR to raise the question of Lado at the UN in 1947 .
26 January 1846 ----- H.H. Pope Gregory XVI signed a Document making the Upper Nile Valley, Lado, 'The Vicariate of Central Africa .
1947 ----- King Atabua resigned as Commandant of King African Rifles ( He was later replaced by a British Officer by name Colonel Alan Knight ) to carry out the Independence of Lado in 1947.
1947 ----- The Question of the Colonisation of Lado was raised in the United Nations Organisation ( UNO ) - Trusteeship Council which the British wished to discuss with Uganda by the USSR . The citizens of Lado asked for freedom
14 April 1948 -------------------- Agofe / King , His Majesty Anacleto Atobua, was shot dead to prevent Him from presenting the Lado Issue at the UN General Assembly Meeting in New York, USA . Britain does everything to keep Lado as Her Possession . Military Experence of His Majesty Anacleto Atabua is as follows : In World War II , King Atobua of Lado , who was assassinated on 14 April 1948 by the British Colonial Agents on British Orders . Agofe / King Atabua commanded King Afican Regiments ( KAR ) under Admiral Lord Louis Francis Mountbatten in Burma . Admiral of Fleet, Lord Mountbatten was the Supreme Allied Commander in South-East Asia 1943 - 1946 .
The assasination death of the Agofe / King re - opened war again with Britain . The British conservative Government under the Wise Old Man Prime Minister Winston .S .Churchhill in 1951 stopped the war . The Governor for Lado affairs by then was Major General Sir John Hall .
1952 --------------------- Lado Envoy Extraordinary Atamva John Bart Agami who today is the present AGOFE / KING of Lado was sent with assistance of Egypt - President Colonel Abdel Nasser to USSR to meet the Secretary General Marshal Joseph Stalin as Lado situation was precipitating following the British attitude towards Lado . USSR took a side for Lado .
1953 ----------------------- Another yet , Keego / Prime Minister of Lado was assassinated by the British to change the Political cause of Lado . In this particular moment , Lado had rejected the British intention of creating an East African Federation as Lado a part of it .
1953 ---------------- Once again this time , the Lado Envoy Extraordinary Atamva John Bart Agami was sent with the assistance of Ethiopia - Emperor Haile Selassie Tafari Makonnen to meet Prime Minister , Wiston . S . Church hill , in Malta .
30th April 1954 ---- Nile Bridge talks - Meeting between Lado Envoy Extraordinary and Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II took place in Uganda . It was agreed that Lado would be independent in 1960 / 1961 .
1956 ------------------ A conference was held in Arua which included , Congo's first Prime Minister , Mr Patrick Lumumba on the question of Lado and its Peoples Rights to Self - determination and on the question of the Nile waters . ( cf .Nile Waters Agreement of 1929 and Nile Waters Utilization Agreement of 8th November . 1959 ) .
1957 ------------------- The Representative of Lado Atamva ( Mr ) , Ringe afterwards was assassinated . Atamva Ringe is an Alur of Luo tribe in Lado.
1958 --------------- General Elections of March 1958 were held to determine the independence of Lado and the future Prime Minister after Decolonisation . Atamva Gaspero ( a Lugbari tribe ) won the elections amongst all the candidates of the 29 tribes of Lado .
1960 ---------------- The Agofe of Lado in the untimely natural death KARANGA / GENERAL - ANACIA BOROA , O M died of whose death the British properly took advantage for the independence of Lado as promised by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II .
1962 --------------- Uganda received her Independence from Britain but on the Political Grounds , the Lado leader was arrested and sentenced to imprisonment by the British Authority in Uganda . He was and is the living physical person today of the Agofe of Lado who fortunately was released by his Military personnel in Uganda Uganda got its independence but remains till todate under the Supreme Authority of the Crown of Britain ( c . f : Implications of the British commomwealth ) .
1967 ----------------- A new political Constitution after being draughted in 1966 was passed in Uganda Parliament , without allowing a debate on it in 1967 . ( intention was to hide the knowledge that Lado is a seperate State from Uganda since 1892 . ) .
1971 ----------------- Uganda ' s plot for the Extermination came into picture in 1971 of the 1967 Master plan to finalise but failed in carrying it out in January 1971 . The result came out of the over throw of the President of Uganda Mr Apollo Milton Obote ( a Luo trbe of Uganda State . ) . And by the Military Hierachy Major General Idi Amin ( a Sudanic - Kakua by tribe from Lado ) took over the State Affairs of Uganda on 25th January 1971 ) . In the re - orgainsation of the State of Uganda General Idi Amin thought it wise to take back the Sovereignity of Uganda to view the Uganda - Lado relations . This became a big blow defeat for the British . The Sudanic ( Ladoan people ) in Uganda and Lado finally had to be wiped off completly in a war to be declared over Lado and her people
1975 ----------------- London Agreement of 1975 was reached . It was worked out in Lusaka in Zambia between Uganda and Britain , inclulding other commonwealth countries to fight the Sudanic tribes of the State of Lado .
1978 / 9 : ---------- War was declared on Lado and its people ( predominately Sudanic race ) which lasted from 6th October 1978 to April 1979 , whereby 250, 000 soldiers were assembled from all over the World especially from the British Commonwealth Countries and from the Political allies of Britain . In the diplomatc channel it was Denmark , a strong British ally who undertook running the diplomatic machinary to impliment the war and was the one who raised the issue in the United Nations under the cover that the war in Uganda was necessary to over throw the World ' s worst Dictator ever known , General Idi Amin . General Idi Amin is a Kakua - Sudanic tribe in Lado . After the over throw of Idi Amin , the coming true President of Uganda Mr, Yusuf Lule said " the Nile is betwwen us " , confirming the existence of the two States : i.e Lado ( since 1892 ) and Uganda ( since 1894 )
March 1979 ----- The Uganda Ethnic groups ( Bantu , Nilotics / Luo and Nilo Hamatics and of Tanzania and Africans held " Moshi Agreement " in Tanzania , finally to impliment the London Agreement of 1975.
1980 / 1 ----------- From 1979 to 1981 massive massacres of the Sudanics in the Southern Lado ( West Nile ) , in Uganda and in other East African Countries inclulding total destruction of Properties in this part of Lado ( both Private and Public properties ) were carried out in order to occupy Lado land ( cf ; Uganda plans of 1967 and Uganda decree of 12 May 1980 , Art. 5 and Art. 10 ) , This was done with full cooperation of Tanzania . The prospectve still continues under different forms of coverages .
From March 1982 -------- Massive killings continued in South Lado Regions supported by the British Flancoster and the S .A. S ( Special Air Service ) including the Military Personel , the British ( CO ' s and NO ' s ) who were sent to Uganda and later to West Nile ( South Lado ) in their explicit way " Military Language " they say the British Officers are only there in Uganda to train Ugandan Military Officers as they were called on to go there on the request or on the Orders of Mr Milton Obote and Mr Yoweri Museveni inorder to fight against the Gorrillas in the Region ( The West NIle Bank Front / Military Wing ) . But Britain knows , West Nile is South Lado Region of the State Kingdom ( KAARI ) of Lado .. Meanwhile the truth is that : Lado people are Defending their Borders, their Land, their Natural Resources and their People as best they can, which is their Right under the UN Charter of 26 June 1945, Article 1, Article 51 and Article 73, including all the relevant instruments of United Nations and International Law
7th March 1987 ------ The Lado Provisional Government, was formally proclaimed and established on 7 March 1987 in Arua - Aru in Lado ( Africa ),
The British Attitude continues to be well seen within to influence the other Eurpean Nations towards Lado in Africa
1999 -- The latest evidence is in 1999, when the European Governments have in the pretext to destroy African Unity which was giving African people a Leeway to true Independence , Politically, Economically and Socially. They simply concocted the African Union based on the European Union and created something called NEPAD ( New Partnership for African Development ), which officially is supposed to be a Partnership between Africa and Europeans. " This is what one can only call simply a devised New system of Domination on the African People and to control the African Minds " .
The British, who have been sharing the Occupation of Lado with Belgium since 1947, are doing everything in their Power, and are using their Position in International Affairs and in the UN Security Council, to kill the State of Lado, and they are using their former African Colonies, their African Protectorates and their African Territories to do just that .
Britain's Prime Minister Tony Blair's African Creation, the " Africa Commission ' has been set in motion with the main objective to finish off and Annihilate the State of Lado and to erase all trace of the Lado People from World Records .This is NO SECREET to a mindful Person . The Government Policy of His New Labour Party for Africa is no different from the former Old Labour Party under the Predecessor led by Rt . Hon. Clement Richard Atlee as the Prime Minister of Britain and during His Reign in 1948 ,The Agofe / King , Atabua of Lado was Assassinated
The Republic of South Africa and the Republic of Nigeria have been chosen to spearhead this Initiative, and in this capacity The Republic of South Africa and The Republic of Nigeria today have been appointed Britain ' s African Commissioner for NEPAD .
By doing so, the Right Honourable Mr. Blair is covering ' British Conspiracy ' under the , Cloak of African Affairs and pretending that the Slaughter of a Nation and an Entire People - the Nation State of Lado and the People of Lado - are merely an ' African Affair ' to be dealt with solely by the African Union ( AU ) .
20001 ------------ Lado sent a Petition to the UN Security Council and requested the UN Secretary General to act under Article 99 of the UN Charter . The Lado Provisional Government is requesting the Political and Diplomatic Support from and through the UN in order to avoid the inevitable War for the Independence of Lado and the Sovereignty of Lado ( Central Africa ) . All that , the People of Lado want and demand is the Right to Freedom and Liberty from the Intolerable Situation of Foreign Occupation of Lado .
Lado has never been Colonised, although Occupied, in contrast to so many other African States. And therefore, No one has any Legal Right to Occupy Lado. The Lado People, demand Independence of Lado and Sovereignty of Lado, and therefore to build up their Nation to Prosper in Peaceful co - existence with their neighbouring Countries, Congo - Zaire, Sudan, Uganda, CAR ( Central African Republic ), Kenya , Ethiopia and with all Nations of the World .
Year 2005 ----- up to ?------------- Incidences in year 2005 against Lendu people and Killings at Ariwara , Yei on Ladoland are of a few to mention yet . A Multination Force consisting of 11,000 troops from ' Nations of the Willing ' were seen making a swift move of insurgence to North Lado ( Central Africa ). Officially they were believed to supervise the ' Nairobi Agreement' of 9 January 2005 which is to bring Peace between the Rebel Forces SPLM ( Sudan People's Liberation Movement ) and the Sudan Government in Khartoum . However the Truth is that : there is no doubt that behind the move is the long - term Objective to Destroy Lado, the Lado State in Central Africa situated in the Great Lakes Region and in the Nile-Congo Watershed Region, which is falsely shown or shall be shown in future on the Map as Southern Sudan and DR Congo. But it is the Northern Territory of Lado ( " Equatoria and Ituri Province of Lado " since 1871 ) . Unfortunately for Lado and Fortunately for Britain , this Operation is being carried out " New Occupation of Lado " Under the UN Banner . " The UN is assisting those who have been Waging a War against the Lado Issue of Independence since 1947 " . It looks then UN Security Council refuses to implement the UN General Assembly Resolution 1514 (XV) of 14 December 1960 and the UN General Assembly Resolution 43/47 of 22 November 1988, and which with a Majority Vote of the UN General Assembly can force the UN Security Council to abide to ", Britain is a Permanent Member of the Security anyway ! -- " Must have a say for Lado then in the course of time " . How long is it taking for Britain to let go Lado for her Freedom ------------- ? We do know that , in order to avoid having to fulfill the UN Resolutions and the Treaty, Britain and the US use the UN Charter, Article 12, for with this article they can block any issue that is not in their own interests from a vote among the membership countries in the UN Security Council itself.
11 March 2005 ------- Provisional Government of Lado asked once again the Agofe / King a Protest Letter to be sent to the UN Security Council, ( dated 11 March 2005 ) , The Security Council must Act . There is a Lack of International Recognition of the State of Lado as an Independent Sovereign State (Lado), and because of the Negligence of the International Community, and of the UN, anyone feels free to Loot and Kill in Lado
By refusing to allow the Independence and Sovereignty of LADO, Belgium and Britain are in Breach of The UN General Assembly Resolution 1514 ( XV ) of 14 December 1960 and the Article 1 and Article 73 of the UN Charter of 26 June 1945 and are the willing to see that the Holocaust of Lado continues under their Rule of Occupation . Now They are trying the best to rename Lado , The Southern Sudan Nation Build in the Years to come. They are hoping that should be done by 2011
GOD SAVE LADO !
