FOR PEACE SAKE,LET THE PEACE TALK HOLD. authored by Lakony Wilson DD on 29. September 2006 at 06:38

It has really been so good for the Government of Uganda and the Rebels of the LRA this time round to have thought of having a guanine Peace Talk. Being an Acholi and a peace loving Ugandan ,I have been one of the happy and excited people about the peace talk but it appears our happiness is being cut short.From what has been going on since the peace talk begun, there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel. Both the government and the Rebels displayed some sense of maturity but now as the saying goes “Character is like pregnancy” you can never hide it, their true colours are beginning to come out.President Museveni has started again calling his peace talk partners’ names, even using the words “Finish Them, Terrorists” and LRA in their typical styles “We have the Military muscles to overthrow the government”. Surely where are we heading?????I urge the people from Northern Uganda and North Eastern where the so called war has affected greatly to stand up now and know what is good for them. Let’s wait eagerly for the outcome of the peace talk. Should there be any failure from the side of the rebels, we should all stand up and use all sort of weapons whether it’s a spoon to fight Kony and his men up to the end and should it be from the government side, we should do likewise and resist the government stand until peace prevails. Enough is enough, this game of “Seek and Hide” must come to an end. For how long must our people suffer before something is done? What is good for the Goose is good for the Gender.
