Well if we do not have Acholi violence, why is it only in Gulu where a peace center is built? Luwero for God's sakes had a massive war, many people were murdered, why not build it in Luwero? There was a massacre  in Ombaci most of the people that survived in West Nile out of the Acholi violence actually abandoned West Nile to South Sudan and Eastern DRC, The Ombaci massacre is internationally recognized, why not build the center in Arua? Kanungu had a massacre such massive one, hey why not build a center for peace in Kanungu? Western Uganda had so many attacks including the murdering of students of a Seventh Day Adventist school near Ruwenzori, that I forget the name,  why not built it there? Why in all analysis Acholi deserve a peace center in Gulu? And here we are with Acholi bringing a first peace center in our country, we have Acholi becoming  the first suspect in The Hague.

 

May be Acholi are really violent people.                                           Just a may be !!!!!

Gulu.

American actor Forest Whitaker who starred as ex-Ugandan president Idi Amin in the movie Last King of Scotland, is funding charity works in post-war northern Uganda including building of a peace centre in Gulu.

Mr Whitaker was in Gulu in February to promote the work of the charity, Starkey Foundation, that gives hearing aids to people who cannot afford to buy them or are not aware of their existence.

Mr Godfrey Otobi Orach, the Uganda country coordinator for Whitaker Peace and Development Initiative, said Mr Whitaker was in Uganda to support the work of Starkey Foundation as part of the charity he has been doing in the country for the past four years.

According to Mr Otobi, among other projects initiated are training of youth in ICT, voluntary works, games and sports and peace building.

"Since 2012, at least 30 young people in the post-conflict Acholi sub-region and Kiryadongo District have benefitted from the initiative in similar trainings," he said.

The charity will also train the District Peace and Reconciliation Team in a bid to promote peace and harmony among the resettling communities both returning from internally displaced camps and captivity.

Tolerance is a stage in civilisation!
