Juba — AFTER a four-month recess, peace talks between the government and the Lord's Resistance Army resumed on a dramatic note in Juba last week.
The LRA delegates walked out accusing the United States, which has observer status, of trying to hijack the peace process.
There were, however, also allegations that the emergence of hardliners on the rebel LRA side was not helping matters.
The resumption of the talks on January 30 came a few days after LRA chief Joseph Kony sacked Mr Martin Ojul ,his long-time lead negotiator and a man who had worked hard to give the notorious LRA rebel force a civil outlook.
Mr Kony did not give reasons for the sack. But Mr David Nyekorach Matsanga, the man who was appointed to lead the LRA team, said that Mr Kony fired Mr Ojul for allegedly making money from the talks, an accusation the sacked official denies.
Other sources say Mr Kony suspected Mr Ojul to be sympathetic to Vincent Otti, the LRA second-in-command the rebel chief had executed in October for reportedly planning a coup.
But most challenging to the mediator, Dr Riek Machar, who is the vice president in the Government of South Sudan, were the unexpected events that took place this week.
Mr Matsanga attended a meeting at the government team's residence at the Civicon Oasis Hotel on Tuesday with hi-tech eavesdropping devices connected to a wireless button-hole spy camera.
The development has irked the Uganda government delegation whose members are suspicious of the LRA team's motive of employing spying devices in the course of the negotiations.
An eavesdropping device is a tool capable of being used to hear or record oral conversation, whether conducted in person or by telephone.
Apparently, Mr Matsanga seems to be interested in the private consultations amongst the government delegates during discussions, a delegate at the talks who preferred not to be named, said.
Some government team members have, however, dismissed the equipment's usefulness.
Mr Matsanga also carries to meetings a poison detector which he privately swipes on food and drinks served him. The detector, according to experts, finds foreign materials added to food.
"I don't take chances," Mr Matsanga said when asked whether he owns the gadgets. "I know I have been a target and many attempts have been made against me."
On Wednesday, after discovering there was a deadlock, Dr Machar, who had allowed the two sides hold joint meetings in his absence, summoned each of the sides.
The sticky issues include the LRA's demand on Monday that 35 percent of top command jobs in the Ugandan army and other security organs be given to people coming from northern and eastern Uganda.
In a fresh position paper presented to the Uganda government delegation led by Internal Affairs Minister Ruhakana Rugunda, Mr Matsanga also demanded that 35 percent of all lucrative central government contracts be offered to bidders from the war-affected regions for economic emancipation.
First to appear before Dr Machar in a closed door meeting was the LRA delegation. The LRA team members told Dr Machar that presently only six ministers originate from the greater north and northeastern parts of Uganda, their assumed constituency.
"Mr Mediator, we query the imbalance in Cabinet in its present form," the LRA team's legal advisor Chrispus Ayena reportedly told the meeting. "There are too many gaps to fill."
The LRA told Dr Machar that the 10 top UPDF posts are held by people from western Uganda and that the same, he claimed, was true of the membership of the High Command save for Maj. Gen. Masaba.
But the government side's spokesman, Capt. Chris Magezi, said contrary to claims by the LRA that the UPDF is run by a clique of officers from western Uganda, the military has an institutional structure, which is not a preserve of an individual.
The LRA also alleged that, apart from the Uganda Revenue Authority where Baganda take about 28 percent of jobs, people from western Ugandan occupy most positions in government bodies.
"If these imbalances are not addressed, Uganda will find itself in a situation like that of Kenya or where north and northeastern will call for cessation," Mr Matsanga said.
But Dr Machar reminded the LRA that as much as they point a finger at the government, they should remember that Uganda was run under a multi-party political system, which the rebels subscribe to.
However, Mr Ayena argued that as much as northern Uganda did not vote President Museveni, the head of state had powers to select politicians from the region to fill the 10 slots of ministers he picks outside Parliament.
"Of the 10 slots, while Dr Rugunda from western was appointed a full cabinet minister, Henry Oryem, the only person from northern, was appointed a state minister," Mr Ayena reportedly told Dr Machar.
Mr Oryem is Dr Rugunda's deputy at the talks.
After trying unsuccessfully from 11 p.m. to 2 a.m. on Wednesday to calm down the LRA, Dr Machar called in the government side, which had been waiting in a tent outside.
But despite the gruelling debates, none of the delegates went to sleep.
Dr Rugunda's team reportedly told Dr Machar that during the implementation of the final agreement, the government will refer to the Equal Opportunities Commission any allegations of regional disparities in job allocation.
In a proposal seen by Daily Monitor, Dr Rugunda's team argued that people from the conflict-affected areas who are living in the Diaspora will be encouraged to return and participate in the national politics and institutions.
The government thus proposed to set up a "Diaspora desk" in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to handle the matter.
The team said that the government recognises the right of any Ugandan to promote any system of governance including federalism through constitutional means as demanded by the LRA.
Dr Rugunda told the meeting that the government will continue to ensure that the composition of armed forces and other security agencies reflect the national character.
On social development, the government outlined its de-mining, re-forestation, rural electrification under Nyagak and Karuma power projects, all based in northern Uganda.
The government team also promised to handle the issues of land, livestock and security for the LRA combatants when they come out of the bush.
Because it was coming to dawn, Dr Machar adjourned the meeting and promised to send to the parties a copy of his proposal arising out of their discussions.

THE FAKENESS OF THE UGANDA / LRA PEACE TALKS
THE HARD _ TALK TO UNDERSTAND THE WAR IN NORTHERN UGANDA FOR PEACE ENDS :
THEY WILL NEVER COME ANY PEACE MEASURE AGREEMENT OUT THE SO CALLED PEACE TALKS IN JUBA . WHY ?
BEACUSE THE JUBA PEACE TALKS IS JUST A REPLICATION OF UGANDA PEACE PACTS DONE BEFORE AS IS WRITEN BELOW --
It was on Tuesday , December 17 , 1985 a Peace Pact Agreement which was reportedly aimed to put an end to the Internal confrontations in Uganda . and was said to have been signed in the Kenyan capital , Nairobi . The Agreement was reported to have been a Peace Agreement for Uganda . It was therefore to have been called the Uganda Peace Pact Package or the Uganda Peace Agreement of 1985 or simply the Nairobi Agreement of 1985 . The text meaning of the so called Uganda Peace Pact / Ageement already had indications available that could enble to formulate broad views on it .
Notable . The problem of Uganda is one of Identity crisis , Legitimacy crisis and the issue of Sovereignty , which is still held by the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Nothern Ireland .
In realiity , the so - called Uganda Peace Agreement of 1985 was an Agreement between the Luo / Nilotic people , on the one hand , and the Bantu people , on the other hand , both the Luo / Nilotic people and the Bantu people being from the East Nile / Uganda . Properly stating , the so - called Uganda Peace Agreement of 1985 was a Luo - Bantu Peace Agreement for the East Nile / Uganda .
The Luo interests were represented by Acholi people and the Bantu interests by Ankole people . Lieut - General Tito Okello , an Acholi heading the Luo interests and Mr Yoweri Kaguta Museveni , a Muhima from Ankole heading the Bantu interests . Both signed the Agreement .
In short , the so - called Uganda Peace Agreement of 1985 was a Re - Unification of the fighting forces of the Uganda National Liberation Army ( UNLA ) , which was the Military of the Uganda National Liberation Front ( UNLF ) , formed during the Moshi Agreement of March , 1979 , in Tanzania . To undrestand this , a brief background History of events are needed to clarify the present - day situation of clouds hanging out here over the so - called Uganda Peace Pact Agreements of Nairobi 1985 and the today 's transformed as another Peace Pact Agreement to be reached in the Juba Talks . ( Replication of the Nairobi Peace pacts going on in Juba on Ladoland now . ) The only difference being in the fact that the discussions today are being carried out on the the piece Land of Lado but not in Kenya or in the Sudan State .The world is being deceived that there is already an existing State in AFRICA - a so called - Southern Sudan State with a full recognised Governament in function .A fiction name to replace the Kingdom / State of Lado by the Occupants . It must be clear on the minds of the people of this World that the Government in Exile of the State / Kingdom of Lado has no role - play in these Peace Agreements of Uganda Orchestrated Peace pacts neither before in Narroibi nor in the present forms going on in Juba . The hopes of Lado People is to see that as a Neighbouring State , Uganda does accept to resettle the Acholi - Nilotic people in their rightful homeland in East Nile / Uganda and fully to participate in the politics of Uganda .
To begin with , the aims or objectives of the Moshi Conference, in Tanzania , attended by the 28 groups from the East Nile / Uganda during the period March 23 - 29 , 1979 , under the Chairmanship of Professor Tarsis B . Kabwegyere , a Muiru from Ankole , were .
a ) / - to remove the Idi Amin regime ;
b ) / - to establish democracy in Uganda without the West Nile / Lado ;
c ) / - to re - establish National Independence in East Nile / Uganda .
The implication of b ) above was that the West Nile / Lado was not needed in and was not to be considered as part of Uganda . And , the implication of c ) above was that Uganda was not Independent during the eight - year period Rule of 1971 - 1979 when it was ruled by the West Nile / Lado , with General Idi Amin Dada , a Kakua Tribe from Lado , as the President .
The outcome of the Moshi Conference of March 23 - 29 , 1979 . was the formation of the Uganda National Liberation Front ( UNLF ), which constited of an Executve Council , a Legislative Council known as the National Consultative Council ( NCC ) , and a Military Commission known as the Uganda National Liberation Army ( UNLA ) and sometimes refered to as the Military wing of the ( UNLF ) .
Togetherwith the Tanzanian Peoples Defence Forces ( TPDF ) and Forces from other countries in Africa and outside Africa , ( specifically from the Commonwealth Countries ) , the UNLA fought the Ugandan WAR of 1978 / 9 against the West Nile / Lado . The only point to mention in this regard ; there was a UNLA Section of a Luo people of Uganda on one hand , and another UNLA section of Bantu people of Uganda , on the other hand . The two Sections of the UNLA had only one and the same aim : to Liberate the East Nile / Uganda from being ruled by the Sudanic People of the West Nile / Lado , who were described and regarded as Foreigners in East Nile / Uganda .
The UNLA and their Tanzanian and other Allies succeeded in April 13 , 1979 , the UNLF Government was Sworn in , in Kampala , with Mr . Yusuf Lule ( to represent the largest tribe in Uganda - the Baganda interest in Uganda - ) as the President of the Liberated Uganda / East Nile . From that moment , President Lule declared that there was the Nile between " us " , meaning that the East Nile / Uganda and the West Nile / Lado . The people of West Nile / Lado were Deprived of their Ugandan Citizenship in the Broad Legal sense . This issue was confirmed by the Ugandan Minister of Information , Mr . Aterker Ejalu , during the International Conference on Refugeese in Africa at Arusha , in May , 1979 .
From May 12 , 1980 , some new events were in sight .
a / - Mr Apollo Milton Obote was received in Uganda like a Head of State on his return from Exile in Tanzania . Mr Yoweri Museveni did not break off from the UNLA or the UNLF as a sign of Protest against this ;
b / - One of the intrigues that was used was to impose Mr Obote as the President of Uganda , was for the massacres of the Sudanic People in the West Nile / Lado from October 1980 , and Mr Yoweri Museveni was the Vice - Chaiman of the Ruling Military Commission which Ordered the UNLA and the militia to carry out those massacres .
It follows that Mr . Museveni took part in imposing Mr . Obote as the President of Uganda in 1980 . But , once Mr Obote got to power in December , 1980 , he did not give Mr . Museveni any post at all .
Thereafter , Mr Museveni broke off from the UNLA and formed the Uganda National Resistance Army ( UNRA ) to fight Mr . Obote inorder to search for an Executve Position in the Government of Uganda . Being unable to defeat , militarily , the UNLA Section under the Luo People control , Mr . Museveni agrreed , following the over - throw of President Obote on July 27 , 1985 , to negotiate for the post of Vice -Chairman of the Ruling Military Council . which post was being held by Colonel Wilson Toko , a Lugbari Tribe from West Nile / Lado . And , the UNLA , controlled by the Acholi - Luo tribe , agreed to negotiate with him because they were unable to dislodge his UNRA forces .
This Background information has been summarised by two West European newspapers in the following terms :
1 . Le Monde - Dimanche 8 - Lunedi 9 september 1985 :
Translations : " Mr . Museveni would perhaps be tempted to want power for himself all alone . Few observers are prepared to understand to say that , once in , power , he would conduct himself as a true democrat " .
Quotations : " M. Museveni serait peut - ètre tentè de vouloir le pouvoir pour lui tout seul : peu d'observateurs sont prèts sois , à parier qu'une aux affaires il se comporterait come un vrai dèmocrate " .
2 The Guardian - Tuesday , December 17 , 1985
" The National Resistance Army Leader , Yoweri Museveni , said he had accepted the post of Vice - Chaiman of the Ruling Military Council , a position he has long sought ." .
Hence , there can be no question that the so - called Uganda Peace Agreement of 1985 will solve the political problem and crisis in the East / Uganda, on the one hand , and the pollitical conflict betwwen East Nile / Uganda and the West Nile / Lado , on the other hand . That Agreement was only a military Convinience which helps to alleviate the thirst of individuals for power . This Same Peace pact as a replication is going on in Juba now - in the Year , 2006 . Mr Museveni is quite happy seeing that , this time , there are no Lado People Representations on their Peace Talks . But , He the President of Uganda forgets one thing ------------- ? " WITHOUT THE LADO ISSUE TO BE SOLVED ON THE AFRICAN CONTINENT BY THE AFRICAN PEOPLE , THERE WILL BE NO PEACE NEITHER IN UGANDA NOR IN CONGO NOR IN SUDAN . PERIOD
N. B : FOR ACCURACY FIND MORE OF THIS LADO KINGDOM IN AFRICA :
There will be no peace in Sudan Central Africa not until the issue of the old Lado Kingdom is brought back on the world Maps and fully recognised as the Legitimate State Kingdom as established on 9th May 864 a.d . The Morden Kingdom State of Lado .
Briefly take to read here on this Lado forum History Explained for more still detail information about the struggling people of Lado for their freedom from Britain still
THERE IS A POLITICAL REASON WHY THERE IS NO PEACE IN UGANDA / EAST NILE AND LADO / WEST NILE ; INCLUDING D R . CONGO AND THE REPUBLIC OF SUDAN .
LADO KINGDOM - SINCE FROM 9TH MAY 864 A.D AND BY LADO CONSTITUTION OF 9TH MAY 1772 THE CENTRAL AFRICAN KINGDOM LADO-BOURDERED BY SUDAN , CONGO / ZAIRE,CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC , UGANDA KENYA, ETHIOPIA WAS RENAMED EQUATORIA 20TH MAY 1871BY OTTOMAN EMPIRE (TURKEY). THE OCCUPATION OF LADO,HOWEVER, TOOK PLACE ON 26TH MAY 1871. THE GOVERNOR GENERAL OF LADO WAS BY THEN SIR SAMUEL WHITE BAKER ( BRITISH NATIONAL / SUBJECT ) WHO WAS THEREBY PROMOTED TO THE RANK OF MAJOR GENERAL IN THE TURKISH ARMY AND THEN APPOINTED BY THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE TO THE GOVERNOR GENERAL OF LADO.
LEGALLY,THOUGH LADO REMAINED INTACT AS A NATION AND PEOPLE INSIDE THE OLD BOURDERS INSPITE OF THE JOINT OCCUPATION BY BRITAIN AND BELGIUM SINCE 1947,WAS STILL THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE OCCUPATION OF LADO EVEN AFTER THE BREAK UP OF OTTOMAN EMPIRE WHICH BECAME THE REPUBLIC OF TURKEY BY THE LAUSANNE AGREEMENT OF 24TH JULY 1923.
LADO SUFFERED THE FATE OF OBLIVION FROM THE HANDS OF THE OPPRESSORS THROUGH THE HISTORY OF MAN AND LADO CONTINUED TO MANAGE TO WITH STAND THE YOKE OF FOREIGN OCCUPATION FOR CENTURIES TILL TODATE AS IT STANDS STILL IN THE NEW MODES OF VIOLENCE IN ATTEMPTS FROM SUCH INSURGENTS CONSISTING OF THE TROOPS FROM UGANDA, SUDAN, KENYA AND RWANDA TO KEEP OR GAIN LADO TERRITORY ALL FOR BRITAIN AND THE FAVOURITE WESTERN WORLD ALLIES INTERESTS .
THIS HOLOCUST OVER LADO STILL REMAINS A PERPETUAL QUITE-SILENT ONE THE BY OLD COLONIAL MASTER BRITAIN AND HER FAITHFUL BACKING GROUPS OF COUNTRIES FROM AMERICA AND EUROPE,IN ADDITION TO THE OLD BRITISH EMPIRE REIGN WHICH HAS BEEN TRANSFERED AT LEAST ON THE SURFACE NOW ; TO THE COMMONWEALTH SATELITES LIKE UGANDA, KENYA, SOUTH AFRICA AND IN ADDITION TO RUANDA, BURUNDI FROM WHERE ARMS AND MERCENARIES ARE SUPPLIED.
THE BRITISH IN 1910 DELIBERATELY REMOVED LADO KINGDOM " LADO ENCLAVE " FROM THE WORLD MAP-ATLASES.
INFACT THE OCCUPATION OF LADO IS ILLEGAL BY THE FOLLOWING ARTICLE 6 IN THE BERLIN TREATY SIGNED ON 26TH FEBRUARY 1885. SOVRENITY ISSUE : THERE IS NO SOVEREIGNITY UNDER THE BRITISH COMMONWEALTH - QUEEN / KING. PLAIN TRUTH , FOR ALL COUNTRIES IN THE COMMONWEALTH .
SINCE FROM 1947 MORE THAN 50 YEARS BRITAIN ,U.S AND SOME EUROPEAN COUNTRIES USE THEIR POSITIONS IN THE U.N SECURITY COUNCIL TO BLOCK THE ISSUE FOR THE FREEDOM AND INDEPENDENCE OF THE CENTRAL AFRICAN STATE - WATERSHADE LADO , THOUGH LADO WAS PROMISED INDEPENDENCE BY 9TH MAY 1960 IN 1954 BY THE QUEEN OF BRITAIN AND COMMONWEALTH .
THE BRITISH GOVERNAMENT REFUSED THE INDEPENDENCE OF LADO ON THE GROUNDS THAT LADO MUST SIGN TO ENROLE IN THE COMMONWEALTH. THE PEOPLE OF LADO REJECTED THAT . REASONS : THERE IS NO SOVEREIGNITY OF A STATE UNDER THE COMMONWEALTH WHATEVER MAY BE THE CASE .THE BRITISH KNOW IT VERY WELL IN BOTH DIPLOMANCY AND POLITICS AS WIDE AND A PART VIEW. WHAT OF AFRICANS , DO THEY KNOW THAT ?
WHAT IS FOR LADO,NEEDED IS TO THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY ,THAT IS TO SAY THE UNITED NATIONS AND THE SECURITY COUNCIL,MUST IMPLIMENT THE U.N RESOLUTION 1514(XV)OF 14TH DECEMBER 1960 ,U.N RESOLUTION 43/47 OF 22TH NOVEMBER AND ARTICLES 1 AND 73 0F UN CHARTER OF 26TH JUNE 1945 AND OFFICIALLY RECOGNISE LADO AS AN INDEPENDENT AND SOVEREIGN STATE WITH RIGHT TO GOVERN HER OWN AFFAIRS WITHIN THE NATIONAL BOUNDARIES THEN LIVE LADO TO DIE AND SUCCUMB IN HER UNEVEN BATTLE IN THE QUITE HOLOCUST INSIDE THE WATERSHED HEART OF AFRICA IN THE HANDS OF BRITAIN AND HER ALLIES. LADO STILL REMAINS OF COLONIAL YORK IN THE HEART OF AFRICA STRUGGLING ON FOR HER FREEDOM FROM BRITAIN IN THE CONTINENT OF AFRICA .
IT MUST BE NOTED THAT THE SENSE OF PRIDE AND PEOPLE'S NATIONAL IDENTITY AND HERTAGE IS A PRIORITY TO LIVE IN HARMONY WITH OTHER SOCIAL ENTITIES ON THIS PLANET EARTH .
SPEAK FOR LADO PLEASE TO HAVE HER INDEPENDENCE FREEDOM IN AFRICA !

Agofe / King Atabua commanded King Afican Regiments ( KAR ) under Admiral Lord Louis Francis Mountbatten in Burma . Admiral of Fleet, Lord Mountbatten was the Supreme Allied Commander in South-East Asia 1943 - 1946 .
The assasination death of the Agofe / King re - opened war again with Britain . The British conservative Government under the Wise Old Man Prime Minister Winston .S .Churchhill in 1951 stopped the war . The Governor for Lado affairs by then was Major General Sir John Hall .
1952 --------------------- Lado Envoy Extraordinary Atamva John Bart Agami who today is the present AGOFE / KING of Lado was sent with assistance of Egypt - President Colonel Abdel Nasser to USSR to meet the Secretary General Marshal Joseph Stalin as Lado situation was precipitating following the British attitude towards Lado . USSR took a side for Lado .
1953 ----------------------- Another yet , Keego / Prime Minister of Lado was assassinated by the British to change the Political cause of Lado . In this particular moment , Lado had rejected the British intention of creating an East African Federation as Lado a part of it .
1953 ---------------- Once again this time , the Lado Envoy Extraordinary Atamva John Bart Agami was sent with the assistance of Ethiopia - Emperor Haile Selassie Tafari Makonnen to meet Prime Minister , Wiston . S . Church hill , in Malta .
30th April 1954 ---- Nile Bridge talks - Meeting between Lado Envoy Extraordinary and Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II took place in Uganda . It was agreed that Lado would be independent in 1960 / 1961 .
1956 ------------------ A conference was held in Arua which included , Congo's first Prime Minister , Mr Patrick Lumumba on the question of Lado and its Peoples Rights to Self - determination and on the question of the Nile waters . ( cf .Nile Waters Agreement of 1929 and Nile Waters Utilization Agreement of 8th November . 1959 ) .
1957 ------------------- The Representative of Lado Atamva ( Mr ) , Ringe afterwards was assassinated . Atamva Ringe is an Alur of Luo tribe in Lado.
1958 --------------- General Elections of March 1958 were held to determine the independence of Lado and the future Prime Minister after Decolonisation . Atamva Gaspero ( a Lugbari tribe ) won the elections amongst all the candidates of the 29 tribes of Lado .
1960 ---------------- The Agofe of Lado in the untimely natural death KARANGA / GENERAL - ANACIA BOROA , O M died of whose death the British properly took advantage for the independence of Lado as promised by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II .
1962 --------------- Uganda received her Independence from Britain but on the Political Grounds , the Lado leader was arrested and sentenced to imprisonment by the British Authority in Uganda . He was and is the living physical person today of the Agofe of Lado who fortunately was released by his Military personnel in Uganda Uganda got its independence but remains till todate under the Supreme Authority of the Crown of Britain ( c . f : Implications of the British commomwealth ) .
1967 ----------------- A new political Constitution after being draughted in 1966 was passed in Uganda Parliament , without allowing a debate on it in 1967 . ( intention was to hide the knowledge that Lado is a seperate State from Uganda since 1892 . ) .
1971 ----------------- Uganda ' s plot for the Extermination came into picture in 1971 of the 1967 Master plan to finalise but failed in carrying it out in January 1971 . The result came out of the over throw of the President of Uganda Mr Apollo Milton Obote ( a Luo trbe of Uganda State . ) . And by the Military Hierachy Major General Idi Amin ( a Sudanic - Kakua by tribe from Lado ) took over the State Affairs of Uganda on 25th January 1971 ) . In the re - orgainsation of the State of Uganda General Idi Amin thought it wise to take back the Sovereignity of Uganda to view the Uganda - Lado relations . This became a big blow defeat for the British . The Sudanic ( Ladoan people ) in Uganda and Lado finally had to be wiped off completly in a war to be declared over Lado and her people
1975 ----------------- London Agreement of 1975 was reached . It was worked out in Lusaka in Zambia between Uganda and Britain , inclulding other commonwealth countries to fight the Sudanic tribes of the State of Lado .
1978 / 9 : ---------- War was declared on Lado and its people ( predominately Sudanic race ) which lasted from 6th October 1978 to April 1979 , whereby 250, 000 soldiers were assembled from all over the World especially from the British Commonwealth Countries and from the Political allies of Britain . In the diplomatc channel it was Denmark , a strong British ally who undertook running the diplomatic machinary to impliment the war and was the one who raised the issue in the United Nations under the cover that the war in Uganda was necessary to over throw the World ' s worst Dictator ever known , General Idi Amin . General Idi Amin is a Kakua - Sudanic tribe in Lado . After the over throw of Idi Amin , the coming true President of Uganda Mr, Yusuf Lule said " the Nile is betwwen us " , confirming the existence of the two States : i.e Lado ( since 1892 ) and Uganda ( since 1894 )
March 1979 ----- The Uganda Ethnic groups ( Bantu , Nilotics / Luo and Nilo Hamatics and of Tanzania and Africans held " Moshi Agreement " in Tanzania , finally to impliment the London Agreement of 1975.
1980 / 1 ----------- From 1979 to 1981 massive massacres of the Sudanics in the Southern Lado ( West Nile ) , in Uganda and in other East African Countries inclulding total destruction of Properties in this part of Lado ( both Private and Public properties ) were carried out in order to occupy Lado land ( cf ; Uganda plans of 1967 and Uganda decree of 12 May 1980 , Art. 5 and Art. 10 ) , This was done with full cooperation of Tanzania . The prospectve still continues under different forms of coverages .
From March 1982 -------- Massive killings continued in South Lado Regions supported by the British Flancoster and the S .A. S ( Special Air Service ) including the Military Personel , the British ( CO ' s and NO ' s ) who were sent to Uganda and later to West Nile ( South Lado ) in their explicit way " Military Language " they say the British Officers are only there in Uganda to train Ugandan Military Officers as they were called on to go there on the request or on the Orders of Mr Milton Obote and Mr Yoweri Museveni inorder to fight against the Gorrillas in the Region ( The West NIle Bank Front / Military Wing ) . But Britain knows , West Nile is South Lado Region of the State Kingdom ( KAARI ) of Lado .. Meanwhile the truth is that : Lado people are Defending their Borders, their Land, their Natural Resources and their People as best they can, which is their Right under the UN Charter of 26 June 1945, Article 1, Article 51 and Article 73, including all the relevant instruments of United Nations and International Law
7th March 1987 ------ The Lado Provisional Government, was formally proclaimed and established on 7 March 1987 in Arua - Aru in Lado ( Africa ),
The British Attitude continues to be well seen within to influence the other Eurpean Nations towards Lado in Africa
1999 -- The latest evidence is in 1999, when the European Governments have in the pretext to destroy African Unity which was giving African people a Leeway to true Independence , Politically, Economically and Socially. They simply concocted the African Union based on the European Union and created something called NEPAD ( New Partnership for African Development ), which officially is supposed to be a Partnership between Africa and Europeans. " This is what one can only call simply a devised New system of Domination on the African People and to control the African Minds " .
The British, who have been sharing the Occupation of Lado with Belgium since 1947, are doing everything in their Power, and are using their Position in International Affairs and in the UN Security Council, to kill the State of Lado, and they are using their former African Colonies, their African Protectorates and their African Territories to do just that .
Britain's Prime Minister Tony Blair's African Creation, the " Africa Commission ' has been set in motion with the main objective to finish off and Annihilate the State of Lado and to erase all trace of the Lado People from World Records .This is NO SECREET to a mindful Person . The Government Policy of His New Labour Party for Africa is no different from the former Old Labour Party under the Predecessor led by Rt . Hon. Clement Richard Atlee as the Prime Minister of Britain and during His Reign in 1948 ,The Agofe / King , Atabua of Lado was Assassinated
The Republic of South Africa and the Republic of Nigeria have been chosen to spearhead this Initiative, and in this capacity The Republic of South Africa and The Republic of Nigeria today have been appointed Britain ' s African Commissioner for NEPAD .
By doing so, the Right Honourable Mr. Blair is covering ' British Conspiracy ' under the , Cloak of African Affairs and pretending that the Slaughter of a Nation and an Entire People - the Nation State of Lado and the People of Lado - are merely an ' African Affair ' to be dealt with solely by the African Union ( AU ) .
20001 ------------ Lado sent a Petition to the UN Security Council and requested the UN Secretary General to act under Article 99 of the UN Charter . The Lado Provisional Government is requesting the Political and Diplomatic Support from and through the UN in order to avoid the inevitable War for the Independence of Lado and the Sovereignty of Lado ( Central Africa ) . All that , the People of Lado want and demand is the Right to Freedom and Liberty from the Intolerable Situation of Foreign Occupation of Lado .
Lado has never been Colonised, although Occupied, in contrast to so many other African States. And therefore, No one has any Legal Right to Occupy Lado. The Lado People, demand Independence of Lado and Sovereignty of Lado, and therefore to build up their Nation to Prosper in Peaceful co - existence with their neighbouring Countries, Congo - Zaire, Sudan, Uganda, CAR ( Central African Republic ), Kenya , Ethiopia and with all Nations of the World .
Year 2005 ----- up to ?------------- Incidences in year 2005 against Lendu people and Killings at Ariwara , Yei on Ladoland are of a few to mention yet . A Multination Force consisting of 11,000 troops from ' Nations of the Willing ' were seen making a swift move of insurgence to North Lado ( Central Africa ). Officially they were believed to supervise the ' Nairobi Agreement' of 9 January 2005 which is to bring Peace between the Rebel Forces SPLM ( Sudan People's Liberation Movement ) and the Sudan Government in Khartoum . However the Truth is that : there is no doubt that behind the move is the long - term Objective to Destroy Lado, the Lado State in Central Africa situated in the Great Lakes Region and in the Nile-Congo Watershed Region, which is falsely shown or shall be shown in future on the Map as Southern Sudan and DR Congo. But it is the Northern Territory of Lado ( " Equatoria and Ituri Province of Lado " since 1871 ) . Unfortunately for Lado and Fortunately for Britain , this Operation is being carried out " New Occupation of Lado " Under the UN Banner . " The UN is assisting those who have been Waging a War against the Lado Issue of Independence since 1947 " . It looks then UN Security Council refuses to implement the UN General Assembly Resolution 1514 (XV) of 14 December 1960 and the UN General Assembly Resolution 43/47 of 22 November 1988, and which with a Majority Vote of the UN General Assembly can force the UN Security Council to abide to ", Britain is a Permanent Member of the Security anyway ! -- " Must have a say for Lado then in the course of time " . How long is it taking for Britain to let go Lado for her Freedom ------------- ? We do know that , in order to avoid having to fulfill the UN Resolutions and the Treaty, Britain and the US use the UN Charter, Article 12, for with this article they can block any issue that is not in their own interests from a vote among the membership countries in the UN Security Council itself.
11 March 2005 ------- Provisional Government of Lado asked once again the Agofe / King a Protest Letter to be sent to the UN Security Council, ( dated 11 March 2005 ) , The Security Council must Act . There is a Lack of International Recognition of the State of Lado as an Independent Sovereign State (Lado), and because of the Negligence of the International Community, and of the UN, anyone feels free to Loot and Kill in Lado
By refusing to allow the Independence and Sovereignty of LADO, Belgium and Britain are in Breach of The UN General Assembly Resolution 1514 ( XV ) of 14 December 1960 and the Article 1 and Article 73 of the UN Charter of 26 June 1945 and are the willing to see that the Holocaust of Lado continues under their Rule of Occupation . Now They are trying the best to rename Lado , The Southern Sudan Nation Build in the Years to come. They are hoping that should be done by 2011
GOD SAVE LADO !
Roots of Sudanese conflict are in the British colonial policies
SUDAN : THE LAND OF THE BLACKS ; " WHY IS SUDAN SUCH A TROUBLED WAR AREA IN AFRICA ? " Roots of Sudanese Conflict are in the British Colonial Policies
The fatal dream of the Arabs - collectively of the Eastern World and the Europeans of the Western World aims have been common and to dstroy the entire population of the black people on the surface of this earth , what ever may be the case they hide their belief in the cloak of Religion as a pretext that there is their God who empowers them in their religion faithand that gives them the damn Right to kill or eradicate , to do away with the black people . Both Islam and Christianity are used for this goal . The biggest lie on this world is to believe that God himself is either a Moslem or a Christian or of any related religious Affairs provided it is not of African relique ritual beliefs . and therefore to enter a Kingdom of God , a Human being has to belong to either of these mind religion Organisations . .
This treacherous belief embeded in Religion out of which springs up and has wealded up a base line political philosophy is what is ruining the remaing living fossils of the black people on this planet earth . What I think remains for the Blacks is to be aware of ; is the fact that a Religion is merely in differences , ways of reliques , rituals of worship formed by different living social entities / individuals mnd to have as an approach to the Creator : the only creator of the different Human Souls . There will never be one such single Religion which is better than others to reach a Kingdom of God . .Imagine today there are already sayings by the Catholic - Christian believers in advocating that the only true Religion to follow is Catholicism to reach God . Funny it sounds with attacks coming from other so called famous Religious organisations now .
The conquest of the Sudan ( Sudan in Arabic - Bilad-es-Sudan ) means , country of the blacks - that region of Africa which stretches, south of the Sahara and Egypt, from Cape Verde on the Atlantic to Massawa on the Red Sea. It is bounded South .
I) by the maritime countries of the west coast of Africa,
2) by the basin of the Congo, and
3) by the equatorial lakes, and East. by the Abyssinian and Galla highlands.
The name is often used in Great Britain in a restricted sense to designate only the eastern part of this vast territory, but it is properly applied to the whole area indicated, which corresponds roughly to that portion of negroid Africa north of the equator under Mahommedan influence. The terms Nigritia and negroid land, at one time current, referred to the same region.
The Sudan has an ethnological rather than a physical unity, and politically it is divided into a large number of States, all now under the control of Christian - European powers with exception of THE EXCLUSIVE affair of Lado ( Lado Enclave ) which till todate the Europeans find it hard issue to bring it under their Rule Control .
The Sudan contains the basin of the Senegal and parts of three other hydrographic systems, namely: the Niger, draining southwards to the Atlantic; the central depression of Lake Chad; and the Nile, flowing northwards to the Mediterranean. Lying within the tropics and with an average elevation of not more than 1500 to 2000 ft. above the sea .
The most Regions of the back cut off from the black North Africa by the Saharan desert, the inhabitants, who belong in the main to the negroid family proper, are thought to have received their so called and wrongly much talked of earliest civilisation from the East of Arab influence and the Moslem religion began to be felt in the western Sudan as early as the 9th century and had taken deep root by the end of the 11th centuary . The trend of the spread of Islam was through the war ( Jihad war ) declared on the black people which statted from 700 b.c in the North part of Africa .
The existence of Native States of Nubia , Ethiopia , Eritrea and Lado hindered for some centuries the spread of Islam in the Eastern Sudan . And throughout these Country States some tribes have remained without even the Western European way of worship ( Religion ) or without the Arab Religion , hence sticking to their own way of worship ( Religion ) till todate . Such is like Ori belief as a Religion Affair in Lado . It was not until the last quarter of the 18th century that the European Natives became the ruling force to re - estabish what the Arabs were doing but this time in the cloak name of Christianity out of which is fogged their political Limelines over the Continent of Africa . .
The terms Western, Central and Eastern Sudan became indicative of a created geographical positions merely. In fact the various States existing before in Africa were / are politically divisible into four groups by the Western European political minds up to this time I am writing :
1) Those West of the Niger river;
2) Those between the Niger and Lake Chad;
3) Those between Lake Chad and the Basin of the Nile river;
4) Those in the Upper Nile valley river.
The first group includes the native states of Bondu, Futa Jallon, Masina, Mossi and all the tribes within the great bend of the Niger. In the last quarter of the 18th century they fell under the control of France, the region being styled officially the French Sudan. In 1900 this title was abandoned. The greater part of what was the French Sudan is now known as the Upper Senegal and Niger Colony (see Senegal, French West Africa ) . All these live now under the Sovereignty Status of France .
The second group of the Sudan States is almost entirely within the British protectorate of Northern Nigeria. It includes the Sultanate of Sokoto and its dependent emirates of Kano, Bida, Zaria, etc ---., and the Ancient Sultanate of Bornu, which, with Adamawa, is partly within the German Colony of Cameroon ( see Nigeria and Cameroon ).
The third or Central group of Sudan States is formed of the sultanates of Bagirmi with Kanem and Wadai. Wadai was the last State of the Sudan to come under European influence, its conquest being effected in 1909. This third group is included in French Congo.
The fourth group consists of the States conquered during the 18th century by the Egyptians and now under the joint control of Great Britain and Egypt. These countries are known collectively as the Anglo - Egyptian Sudan which became independent as todays - The Republic State of Sudan but still under the Anglo - Egyptian Sovereignty . Lado is not a part of this Independent Republic of Sudan at all .
The Anglo - Egyptian Sudan , the region which before the revolt of the Arabized black tribes under Mahommed Ahmed in 1881-84 was known as the Egyptian Sudan has, since its reconquest by the Anglo-Egyptian expeditions of 1896 - 8, has been the Area under the joint Sovereignty of Great Britain and Egypt. The limits of this condominium differ slightly from those of the Egyptian Sudan of the pre Mahdi Arabised period.
It is bounded North by Egypt ( the 22nd parallel of N. lat. being the dividing line ),
East - by the Red Sea, Eritrea and Abyssinia,
South - by Lado and Belgian Congo.
West - by French Congo. North of Darfur is the Libyan Desert, in which the western and northern frcntiers meet. Here the boundary is undefined , ( this is the real cause of War trouble in Darfur of the Boadry Issue at this very time of 21st centuary ) . The Anglo-Egyptian Sudan however forms the compact territory extending south wards to the north boader line of Lado (Lado , which has never fallen Legally under British Authority ) brings the whole of the Nile valley from the equatorial lakes to the Mediterranean under the control of Great Britain. The Anglo - Egyptian Sudan extends north to south about in a direct line, and west to east about also in a direct line. It covers 950,000 sq. m., being about onefourth the area of Europe ; what follows the term Sudan is used to indicate the Anglo-Egyptian condominium only. But there is still now what is boiling in the Ccoons of the Anglo - America mnds is to capture and destroy Lado as the Kingdom State still in Africa to show to the world that Africa has finally been completely colonised by the Western European world as enshrined in the Berlin Treaty . This , they are bringing out now by creating a new State to be called a Christian Southern Sudan State in Sudan to replace the political Indentity Issue of the State Kingdom of Lado which became so known founded Kingdom by 9th May 864 A,D and by the Lado Constitution of 9th May 1772 . One of the oldest State Kingngdom of the World still . The fighting going on in the Sudan Central Africa is all for that . The war machinery is being controlled by the Anglo - Americans ---- COLONISATION OF LADO . The question is , will they succeced these group of Europeans ? ?

Roots of Sudanese conflict are in the British colonial policies :

THE BRTISH WISHES AGAINST LADO KINGDOM EXISTENCE IN AFRICA .
THE STRUGGLES OF LADO PEOPLE IN AFRICA - THE CRY FOR FREEDOM STILL !!
SEPERATE STATES THEY ARE :
LADO STATE ,
THE REPUBLIC STATE OF SUDAN ,
THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO AND
UGANDA ARE SEPARATE STATES IN AFRICA .
BUT THE PEOPLE OF LADO ARE HOMELESS IN THEIR OWN LAND NOW . WHERE DO THE PEOPLE OF LADO GO TO LIVE ON THIS WORLD ?
Here are some specifications to follow very carefully in the Literature please .
Dinka people are not in anyway Sudanic Ladoans at all . Ladoans are descendents of the 29 tribes as shown on the Maps of Lado LAND ( political history Map of Lado on World Atlases before the Ist world war being removed away by the British Authority 1914 - 1916 ) .
Bahr el Ghazal of the Sudan State
Location of Bahr el Ghazal in Sudan
The Bahr el Ghazal in Arabic language is both a River and a Region of southwestern Republic of Sudan State . The Region takes its name from the River. This River flows about 80O - 810 km east to Lake No where it joins the Bahr el Jebel to form the White Nlie sometimes called ( Bahr el Abiad ). The region in itself today , for the Administrative conditions in the Sudan State consists of the States of North Bahr el Ghazal , West Bahr al Ghazal , Lakes and Warab . Bahr el Ghazal borders Central African Republic to the West and Lado to the South
The population of this Region is mainly by the Dinka people,and others are the Nilotic Tribes : the Shilluk and the Nuer and Jo Luo and the Acholi and Lotuhu .
Bahr el Gazal historically was constantly subject to raids by the Fur and Arab Slave traders from the neighbouring Region of Darfur . This Slave trade was apparently put to end in 1864 by the Khedive of Egypt but soon re - emerged under Native Merchants, who set themselves up as Princes who created their own individual Soldiers . The most powerful known of them became of Al - Zubayr .
Al - Zubayr fought and defeated a joint Turkish / Egyptian force sent to Bahr el Ghazal in 1873 . However the Khedive compromised the defeat and made Bahr el Ghazal a nominal province of Egypt, with Al-Zubayr as its Governor.
Bahr el Gazal as the region was later incorporated into Anglo-Egyptian Sudan and became the ninth Province after being split from Equatoria in 1948 , became a Province, and then State, under the Republic of the State Sudan today .
In 1996 the Region was divided into the four current Districts as part of an Administrative re - organisation of the Country - Sudan State .
Bahr el Gazar has been affected by civil war for many years. It has ever been a scene of fighting in the First Sudanese Civil War - AnyaAnya wars against the State of Sudan .
In 1982 the Sudan People's Liberation Army ( SPLA ) was formed there by John Garang of Dinka TRIBE to fight the Arab-dominated Government in Khartoum
This became known as the Second Sudanese Civil War . A conflict which continued and lasted until 2003 and killed more than three million people. A majority of the population of the region is internally uprooted or displaced and largely most of them are refugees now in neighboring countries especially now settling in Lado Land .( Lado occupied )
THE COLONIAL AMBITION OF KING LEOPOLD OF BELGIUM
KING LEOPOLD OF BELGIUM REIGN OVER SUDAN ( BAHR-EL-GAZA ) AND HIS AMBITION TO HAVE BROUGHT LADO UNDER HIS CONTROLL - " THEN FIGURED LADO ' S ENCLAVE --- ( 1894 -1903 ) ".
Although of short - lived existence, King Leopold II of Belgium had ordered the Belgian troops to occupy the Land Territory Situated in vast Sudan African Region in an attempt of colonisation .
This was to full fill the Kings last thirst of Colonisation and this last territory added was to be part of « Leopoldian Sudan », more known under the naming " Lado ' s Enclave ", and infact to become an integral part of Congo but by not the name Sudan . .
When in 1881, the revolt of Mahdists ( Religious Groups of Arab descedents ) ended in the loss of the control of Egypt over the Upper - Nile Sudan Regions , Leopold II viewed it as a great Opportunity to spread his Territory Conquest Ambitions to the River White Nile .
He therefore organised several Military expeditions for this purpose from 1881 starting from the Belgian - Congo Territory . King Leopold met with a fierce Great ever Resistence when the Belgian forces came into war Battle with the Lado Defence Forces . This war came to an ended with a Peace Agreement signed both by Lado and Belgium for a peaceful Cooperation signed on 28th September 1892 which entered in the Internation Convention Rules in which King Leopold accepted / Agreed in Diplomacy and Facts not to Exercise His Crown over the Sovereignity of Lado ( in Lado Lui-gbari Language , Sovereignity means ( Nduvunduvu ) .
The Convention was signed for Lado by the Commandant Fahd El Mula Aga ( a lugbara ) and for Belgium it was signed by Leutnant Milz who took the place of the Belgium Commandant Van Kerckhoven who died before arrival to WADELAI - ( by then Capital CITY of LADO ) . WADELAI is situated in BUROA Region/ Area which the British change the name of Region - area known best to them and to Uganda as Rhino - Camp . Rhino - Camp is BUROA piece of Land nearby River Nile of Lado ( the name of River Nile to Ladoans is River ( Yira) Onama . This Agreement in short to say was recognised by the signature of two successive agreements ( in May 12 , then in August 14 , 1894 ) , wherein the British Government declared , in the name of Egypt , to let King Leopold II have a territory called " Lado's enclave", Seperated from the Bahr el Gazal's State of Sudan Sudanese Province ( Bahr el Gazal at times called the " River of Gazelles "), and being bounded by the latitudes 5°30 ' N. and 30 ° W.
The Fachoda incident, which set British troops against French at the edge of the Nile, the Sovereign Power of Egypt on Sudan was however restored and Britain decidedly through Military intimidating , obliged Leopold II to give up Lado ' s Enclave in 1903, with the exception of Ituri / Uele - Wele , Mahagi regions of LADO . The south part of Lado was inturn ceded to Uganda which till today they call " West Nile " in Uganda . and the North of Lado attached to Bahr el Gazal . The towns of Juba and Yei etc ---- are town areas of North Lado .
Since this Division / Partion of Lado is up to now illegall , Lado accordingly in LAW is a Sovereign State with all full rights to Protect Herself : Land Territory and her Citizens ( Article 51 of U N Charter ) from any Foreign Agressions even be attacked by the Mighty Britain and the like .
By the Actions of Britain against Lado since from 1903 till today Britain is therefore still occupying Lado Militarily and so doing through these African Countries who by their Virtue being under the Supreme Command of the British Crown is Occupying Lado . You can be independent Country but without Sovereignty you and your Country remain a Colony or you are still Colonised on This Planet EATH . The British Diplomacy today , following the U N resolution ( ( cf : UN General Assembly Resolution 1514 (XV) of 14 December 1960 and the UN General Assembly Resolution 43/47 of 22 November 1988 ) is frenetically to re - introduce another notion to present now that Sudan State must be seperated in two Countries : North Arab Moslem Sudan and South Black Christian Sudan . But the Real Truth remains still to live the North Lado to Bahr el Gazal and PAYING a Considerable amounts of money to The Reublic of Sudan for the case . After all the real oil resources in the New to be created Southern Sudan State is in Lado to remove Lado State Immage . This is the Trying Diplomacy of the British always against Lado .
Lado must be under a new controlled State as Southern Sudan State still for the British Interest .
Meanwhile the Oil fields in South Lado will be directly brought under controll by Uganda and the rich other mineral & Oil in Ituri / Uele / Wele , Mahagi by the Democratic Republic of Congo . All in all the Ladoan people are there afterall to do the Labour work - to be enslaved in the Oil and minreal fields . .
The FLAG ISSUE FOR LADO by Belgium and its INFACT :
Colonel Colmant imagined for these territories a flag and a coat of arms being inspired by the Congolese flag. The coat of arms is the copy of the flag augmented with the personal coat of arms of Leopold II as always indicated
The blue colour and the yellow stars are directly inspired by the Congolese flag, so reminding the link with the Independent State of Congo. They are combined with St Andrew's cross, or cross of Burgundy, in memory of the Company of Oostende which financed the first Belgian colonial expeditions.
N.B : But It is to be noticed that neither this coat of arms, nor the flag, were officially recognized.
LADO IS STILL IN FIGHTING WAR WITH BRITAIN FOR " OF HER FREEDOM RIGHTS OF SOVEREIGNITY " THEY IS NO ESCAPE FOR LADO ON THIS ISSUE .
