Summary:

  • Joseph Kony’s family, seeking support after returning to Uganda, appeals to President Museveni, citing challenging living conditions and unfulfilled promises made over three months ago.

The family of Joseph Kony, the most wanted rebel leader of the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA), has reached out to Uganda’s President Yoweri Museveni, urging him to fulfill the promises made over three months ago. Having returned to Uganda about five months ago, the family describes their current living conditions as challenging, emphasizing their reliance on government assistance for survival.

Facing difficulties and struggling to make ends meet, Kony’s family expresses the belief that only the government can provide the support they need. Selly, Kony’s wife, shared their predicament with The Daily Monitor, stating, “We are here toiling and living hand to mouth. We came back since others don’t want to welcome us or support us. We knew President Museveni would take us as his own, and this is why we want him to listen to us.”

She further highlighted the harsh reality they are facing, saying, “We sleep hungry or just survive on a meal per day.” Despite being aware of some of her husband’s relatives, she expressed disappointment in their lack of assistance.
