DRC: Alert – M23 have crossed from Uganda into Ishasha!

M23 Goma

“We have just learned carefully the M23 are en-route to the DRC with weapons, ammunition with the objective to attack.” (Congo Mon Pays, 15.01.2017)

The Governor of Nord-Kivu Julien Paluku have confirmed that there has been movement from the M23 rebels, some even complies that Mouvement du 23-Mars (M23) have crossed from Uganda and gone into the Democratic Republic of Congo. It’s been reported that 200 armed rebels have moved across the border. If they have done as in the past, than they have crossed from Kisoro, where they even got guns and ammunition from the Ugandan Government; this isn’t confirmed, but has happen in past. This time they have been verified that they crossed into the DRC through the Ishasha, that means they crossed from Kihihi in Uganda.

“(Alert Suite 1): 7 AKA47 weapons and 1 PKM arrested in a toyota Corolla car, plate 798B in KISORO in front of BUNAGANA” (Julien Paluku, 15.01.2017).

M23 we’re after the peace-agreement in peace staying in Uganda, some we’re supposed to carry out trials from their treason and cession of land from the government in Beni, Goma and in general the provinces of Kivu, as well as they we’re threatening to continue and even make way to take the capital Kinshasa. So they we’re supposed to become civilians in Uganda, as there been reports that they we’re guards in Kampala around May 2016 and the Swearing-In, as their we’re French speaking soldiers in Mukono and Kampala guarding the streets as the President we’re entailing on his officiating for his 7th term.

So, that the movement of M23 and even CNDP (National Congress for the Defence of the People) has crossed from Uganda into the DRC are a frightening and worrying. As Laurent Nkunda has been house-arrest and silent in the Rwandese capital Kigali. This after another agreement of discharging his rebels across the Rwandan borders. There we’re similar agreements between the DRC government and M23. So the news today that they after years in the republic of Uganda has returned is worrying.

M23 will be another group and rebels who will create more havoc in an area who already have their groups who kills and burns villages. While the FARDC and MUNISCO cannot contain or stop their violent behaviour that kills and loot society. So with the recharged and well trained guerrilla of M23 returning to Kivu and North Kivu’s isn’t good news, it is terrible news and the escalation of violence and killings will be turned up; now the ADF-NALU, Mayi-Mayi and others will not be alone doing damage and destroying the region. They will have well-trained and supplied guerrilla that has had time for a few years to reload and prepare to battle in the Kivu-Provinces.

Late last year in November 2016, General Sultani Mukenga we’re missing and gun-fire erupted at border town of Kivu, close to Uganda. This as he has a household in the Republic after the peace-agreement that we’re mediated with the Ugandan Counterparts as well, where they got to stay in peace; so now they have decided to actually attack the Kivu again!

We can just follow and know that there will be reactions and also rising violence when the M23 goes into the country, to what extend and how they will plan to attack is only known by the M23 leadership. What they want out of it this time, isn’t known. The last thing we known is the documents sent to M23 in the 3rd January of 2017. So they will I drop, so you can see them. But this is isn’t great news, it’s terrible and there will be innocent who will die in the cross-fire as the rebels will create massive horrors to gain control, yet again! Peace.

Omusinga bwa Rwenzururu Mumbere we’re arrested after a hot minute in freedom

mumbere-13-01-2017

The day that finally came after over a month in jail in Nalufenya Prision on the Treason Charges made on the trespasses he did early in 2016, the Omusinga bwa Rwenzururu we’re today in Jinja Court again answering his case and also having a bail hearing. Where the media was banned from the premises and the details is only what the government officials spread to the world. As usual the Media’s had to be outside and not allowed to enter it. Certainly if the Uganda Police Force could have their will they would have built barracks and roadblocks to Mbira forest to secure that not a living soul get intelligence on the outcome.

Still, the verdict came out that the King of Rwenzururu we’re allowed bail and could leave his prison state, but still not cleared on any indication of his charge been dropped. As he the King couldn’t go home, he could only stay in Kampala and areas inside the Baganda Kingdom. So his release was with precautions from the authorities. You thought the Police Force and National Resistance Movement we’re done with their humiliation of the king.

As he was free for a hot-minute, he was apprehended as he couldn’t even eat a rollex nor have a Nile brew in the streets of Kampala. Charles Wesley Mumbere who has been detained without any proceeding, only short court-hearings where the charges has been read, we’re again in the midst of the Police Force. The famous black-van, the Besigye-Torture vehicle came into the picture.

With the knowledge of having a bail on UGX 100 million shilling in the Jinja Magistrate Court, there shouldn’t be any reason to detain him again and take him to an unknown location unless the government want to silence the one who is the biggest eye-witness to the killings of late November that we’re sanctioned to the army and police officers stationed in Kasese. The Kasese clashes that even has a verified letter sent to the International Criminal Court. The ICC that Mzee hates because he is afraid that he will be next in line.

Omusinga bwa Rwenzururu is the victim that is taken hostage and taken with impunity from the authorities, as the killers and the ones that did the crime walks. The UPDF and the men who we’re carrying guns and besieging the Royal Palace deserves to be apprehended, not a king who has humiliated and disgraced by courts, police officers and the government who has detracted from their peaceful ways. If they ever had it… Peace.

The United Nations Mission in South Sudan’s attention has been drawn to recent statements reported in the media concerning the deployment of the Regional Protection Force. It may be recalled that the United Nations Security Council in its Resolution 2304 decided that UNMISS force levels should be increased to a ceiling of 17,000 troops, including 4,000 for a Regional Protection Force. This was reaffirmed by the Security Council in its recent Resolution 2327, renewing the United Nations Mission in South Sudan for one year.

The Mission notes that the Transitional Government of National Unity confirmed its “unconditional” consent to the deployment of the Regional Protection Force by communique to the Security Council on 30 November 2016. In renewing the UNMISS mandate, including the deployment of the Regional Protection Force, the Security Council reaffirmed its determination that the security situation in South Sudan remains fragile, with serious consequences for the civilian population in South Sudan.

The Mission confirms that in preparation for the arrival of the Regional Protection Force, it continues to be engaged in discussions with the Transitional Government of National Unity as to the various modalities for the new Force, including where they will be deployed in Juba.

Joint Statement on the Passage of Humanitarian Assistance through Sudan to South Sudan (06.01.2017)

WFP South Sudan 2016

The MoU will be extended for another six months, from 1 January to 30 June 2017.

KHARTOUM, Sudan, January 6, 2017 – The Joint Technical Committee (JTC) on Passage of Humanitarian Assistance from Sudan to South Sudan – comprised of representatives of the Governments of South Sudan, Sudan and the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) – is pleased to announce the extension of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that will allow for the continued movement of food assistance through Sudan to South Sudan.

The MoU will be extended for another six months, from 1 January to 30 June 2017.  The JTC is confident that an extension of the MoU will further contribute to ongoing efforts to prevent hunger among the food-insecure and conflict-affected people in South Sudan, particularly those living in the border state of Upper Nile.

First signed in 2014, the MoU has enabled WFP Sudan to deliver 54,420 metric tons of emergency and nutrition assistance to over 200,000 South Sudanese in Upper Nile state. From January to November 2016, WFP transported 28,626 metric tons of emergency food assistance using 26 convoys through the Sudan corridor.

With this six-month extension, WFP will be able to deliver food to more than 50,000 South Sudanese in food-insecure areas of South Sudan. A portion of the food will be purchased locally in Sudan, supporting Sudanese farmers.

The JTC also commends the close coordination and collaboration between the governments of Sudan and South Sudan at all levels. This has enabled the JTC to set up mechanisms that minimized delays and reduce the time needed to obtain customs clearance.
