UPDF Responds to Social Media Allegations Saying Terrorist Leader Joseph Kony is Proposing Peace Talks with Government of Uganda.
The UPDF has said it has not yet received any information from government relating to recent claims that Joseph Kony, the leader of rebel group, Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) has reached out to government proposing peace talks.
Lt Col Deo Akiiki, the UPDF Deputy Spokesperson told reporters that “At the moment, we don’t have that information provided to us by government”.
“There have been rumors on social media about the leader of the LRA requesting for peace talks. As UPDF, it is not yet our time to talk about LRA seeking for peace or not. We can neither confirm nor deny that the LRA could have taken such an action. It’s not yet within our domain,” Akiiki said.
“And in any case, if anything of that matter comes up, we are sure government will inform you about the developments. It is our desire that there is always harmony in the community, if LRA decides to take that action”.
