LRA Delegates too close to Uganda Government?
Many observers of the Juba Talks are getting increasingly concerned about the warm relationship that has all of a suddent sprang up between the LRA and Uganda Government delegates. Martin Ojul for instance, without hesitation reportedly accepted Dr Rugunda's invitation to the LRA delegates to spend Christmas in Uganda. The two delegations are reportedly also now dining together! This is amidst reports that Martin Ojul has now bought a new house in Nairobi, whilst Okidi Jongomoi, the USA based LRA link on a recent visit to Kampala had a number of meetings with top Uganda Government and military officials. Joseph Kony on the other hand has reportedly been mellowed by his mother's visit, accompanied by Museveni's representative in Gulu, Walter Ochora and Owiny Dollo, a NRM stallwart. What is going on? Many are asking.

Meanwhile, most of the UK based LRA delegates are in London for an alleged break and consultation. It is not clear whether all will be going back to Juba in the new year. Rumours have that the Nairobi based group who are now in control of the talks in their absence would prefer some of the London delegates not to be allowed back. Reports from London say that the delegates have held a number of closed meetings with elders from the war affected areas. Some say a break away group is the offing to executte an alternative plan in case the Nairobi faction sell out the LRA. to the ICC and Uganda Government. Whether this is true remaiins to be seen. Watch this sapce!
