[Francophones] SOS Bukiringi

[Peter Williams]

Dear William,

 

I was going to write to you anyway to let you know that the Lent Lunches
here raised c£250 today for the work of the Boga Diocese.

 

Once we work out how most advantageously to send it, it will be on its way.
While we would not want it to go to rebel soldiers you are of course the
best person to judge what to do with it.

 

Meanwhile we will be praying for you all in this worrying and dangerous
time.

 

Love and blessings from us all,

Dear brothers and sisters,

 

I left Bunia Friday 24 February for Boga. Two events were worrying the
community in Ituri. The Marabo brigade was threatening to desert the
national army. The result was that the brigade was to be pulled out and sent
for refresh training. At the same time, the Lendu militia led by Cobra
Matata decided to leave the bush. I was informed by Archdeacon Badudu of
Bukiringi that the militia are settled in Bukiringi and ready for
negociation with the government. It was safe for me to travel from Bunia to
Boga trough Bukiringi. Arrived at Sorodo, a few miles from Bukiringi I was
stoped by a few armed militia. They only asked for some assistance for
cigarettes, salt and so on. I gave them some 4500 Francs, equivalents to U$
5. They told me they are waiting for talks with the government. I noticed
that with time, they will be a threat to the population, if they have no
food. Last Tuesday, the Archdeacon came to see me in Boga and said the
govermnent is slow and nothing is yet concluded. I called Hon Tibasiima
John, Hon Upira, national minister of Public Services, General Amuli Deputy
Chief of stuff in charge of operation and told them about the matter. I
haven't got any positive response. Today, the Archdeacon called to tell me
that the population that has not got enough food stock is under serious
threat with the hungry men. Bukiringi, that is 15 miles from Boga, had its
population living in IDP camps for years. To ask them feed a thousand
militia is too much. And Boga may also face the consequences.

Please, I humbly request you to advocate, pleade and if possoble help the
population of Bukiringi before the situation goes beyond control.
