Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Irumu South has been the last center of hostility and militia activities in the Ituri. The last active militia group was that very one came out of the bush. It happened at a time when the military pulled out Gety and Boga region. Even last night I called some MPs from Ituri, the Minister, and the General. In the military, it seems they plan to send the deployment to the region. But people wonder why they left the gap in the very last militia base? The political tell me that plans are underway for finding solution. So far, the militia have caused no harm to people. Our truck traveled yesterday from Bunia to Boga. The only worry is about the population having trouble to collect food for them. What will happen if they run out of meager stock they have? What if the government plans to reoccupy the area by force? 
Our main concern is to come in support of the Bukiringi people get them what they can offer before the situation becomes uncontrolled. I know some programs, organisations will come in when it is too late. I am sending an alarm! People who have means to advocate, please it is a right time to do it and avoid the disaster. Any one willing to help, we see together the way he can do it.

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.
