The MP said that there would be no peace as long as rebel leader Joseph Kony is in the bush.He also disclosed that internally displaced persons in Lira have not received aid since September 2003.âOur people are totally forgotten; they have not received any assistance since they went to camps in September last year; no food no education,â he said.
Why, if I may ask, are people totally forgotten? How come people have not received aid (food and education assistance) since September of 2003 when they were displaced from their home by "rebels" ? I believe MP Omara Atubo should raise this issues with the NRM regime in Kampala..specifically with the NRM minister of the so called "disaster preparedness." Indeed, what ever happened to the millions of dollars donated by Members of the International Community and was specifically targeted to assist those who are suffering in the camps?

"The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the state."
