Mulindwa, Am I the LRA? Why would I hurt people who oppose Kony and his violence on innocent people in northern Uganda?
These people are committed to Movement principles if they oppose Kony and mind you some of them are very good friends of mine. Am even surprised they are being targeted. That's desperation by Kony supporting groups if this story is true. They have been defeated in Uganda and Sudan now they are embarking on terrorism in UK. I very much doubt they can go very far in UK. I think its fabrication anyway.
