The memo was given to me with the following letter, written by an office worker, now deceased, who took the memo from NRM files.

     Soon after Museveni’s victory in the 1980-1985 bush war, Virginia Kajumba became a clerical worker in the offices of the newly formed National Resistance Movement.  She also was in love with an officer in the National Resistance Army, Major Okello Kolo, an Acholi.  They talked of marriage.  He wanted to move with her to his home area in northern Uganda.  She resisted the suggestion.  In the letter she sent him, shown below, she makes her case citing the book of Genesis on how a man must leave his mother and father – and thus his homeland – to join his wife.  So that Kolo would know that Kajumba’s refusal to go to northern Uganda was based not on a lack of love for him, but rather on a concern about the stability of the North – a concern rooted in reality – she sent with the letter a copy of a memo that she had seen, perhaps even typed herself, in the NRM offices, the memo that I am making public.  When Ageno Komakec gave me a copy of the memo, she also handed to me a copy of Kajumba’s letter.  It displays both her love for Kolo and her concern about what will become of life in the North under the Museveni regime.  “I am sure that you were born for me and I for you…For this reason I enclose herewith M7’s [Museveni’s] diabolical directive to his brother.”  According to my sources, NRM security killed both Kolo and Kajumba.
