Joseph Kony, is a former
church altar boy, and a Ugandan guerrilla group leader, head of the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), a group engaged in a violent campaign to
establish theocratic government based on the Ten Commandments throughout Uganda. He has spread terror through
eastern and central Africa for almost three decades. He has pursued an aimless
war that has killed thousands of people and at one point forced hundreds of
thousands from their homes.
He and his diminishing
troops, many of them kidnapped child soldiers, fled northern Uganda six years ago and are now spread
across the jungles of neighbouring countries. His actions are to be
stopped!
In a bid to achieve this, a 30 minutes video, Kony2012, was produced by three
American videographers campaigning for greater efforts to capture Joseph Kony,
the leader of the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA).
THE AIMs are TO MAKE JOSEPH KONY
FAMOUS, NOT TO CELEBRATE HIM, and also TO RAISE SUPPORT FOR HIS ARREST AND SET
A PRECEDENT FOR INTERNATIONAL JUSTICE.
