An African Oradour...
Barlonyo (also Bar Lonyo, meaning "field of wealth" in Luo) is a village in northern Uganda near Lira town. Here follows the text of the remembrance book for the massacre of 2014, made by residents themselves.
The survivors perform regularly an re-enactment of what happened in their village. The pictures were made in November 2016, at the same time while the International Criminal Court (ICC) was starting the trials of the main suspect of the massacre, former LRA commander Dominic Ongwen.
THIS MEMORY BOOK IS BASED ON DOCUMENTATIONS OF THE MASSACRE CONDUCTED BY THE JUSTICE AND RECONCILIATION PROJECT (JRP), IN ADDITION TO FOCUS GROUP DISCUSSIONS HELD BY COLLABORATIVE TRANSITIONS AFRICA (CTA).

Barlonyo martyr village
Before the War
Since 1986, a civil war has taken place between the Government of Uganda and the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA). Before the war the Langi people of Lira district and the people of Barlonyo made a living by farming and taking care of the livestock.
Barlonyo means “place of wealth”; a piece of land where people can be wealthy with hard work. Previously, life around Barlonyo was characterized by hunting, fishing, traditional dances and storytelling, and the cultivation of crops, small businesses and cattle rearing,
The civil war lead to the creation of displacement camps in Lira and disrupted their way of life.
After a government offensive called “Operation Iron Fist” in late 2002, Lira district became even more insecure. The LRA began attacking civilians in Lira district and as a result, nearby civilians in Lira voluntarily created Barlonyo camp between September and November 2002. Barlonyo is 26 km north of Lira town and sits next to the River Moroto.
In the afternoon of 21 February 2004, over 300 people were murdered in less than three hours and thousands were displaced to neighbouring camps.
This book is to remember and honour the lives of those who were killed and affected by the massacre. It is also meant to recognize how Barlonyo has moved forward after the massacre, and to memorialize their story so the next generation in Barlonyo does not allow such an atrocity to happen again.
Timeline of massacre events:
Times are approximated based on eye-witness testimony
5:00 pm
300 LRA gather in the fields outside of Barlonyo to receive attack instructions from Okot Odhiambo. According to one soldier who participated in the raid, Odhiambo told the LRA soldiers: “I have received order from the high command of the LRA. You are to kill every living Thing. Kill the old people, kill the adults, kill the government soldiers, and abduct all the young children and boys.”
Several civilians spot the rebels and try to alert the camp. The LRA becomes suspicious of the civilians who had run Back to the camp and they started to shoot in their direction. The rebels fired an RPG (Rocket-Propelled Grenade) toward the detach. At this time one person is shot.
5:30 pm
The LRA, headed by 7 fighters, splits into 3 groups. One group attacks the militia detach and sets it on fire. 28 soldiers and some of the family members were in the barracks and all were killed in the attack. The groupe attacking the detach then continues on the main camp.
The camp residents did not realize that the detach was being attacked and were doing activities such as bathing, cooking, drinking and playing cards when the LRA arrived. The other two groups surrounded the main camp and begin massacring civilians and abducting others. There were over 300 LRA rebels with 100 guns, a bomb, two J2s, Ak-47 and clubs and sticks. A small gap of fighters on the western side of the camp allows some civilians, Amuka and LDU to escape. Some hide in the bushes and others run to Ogur.
7:30 pm
After the massacre was over Odhiambo blew his whistle, gathered the rebels under a tree, and tied all of the new abductees to the tree. At least 24 people were kidnapped and taken to carry looted goods or serve in the rank and file of the LRA. They marched their captives, most laden with heavy food stuffs and luggage to the river Moroto (3 km away).
8:30 pm
Several people struggled to cross the deep river and were punished for their caution. One woman spilled millet as she stumbled, and was promptly chopped to death with a panga. Twenty people were killed by the LRA at the River Moroto by smashing their heads and stabbing them with bayonets. The group carries on into Okwang.
By the end of the massacre over 300 residents of Barlonyo were shot, mutilated with pangas, beaten to death with sticks or pierced with bayonets. Many others were burned to death after following instructions to enter their homes. Those who tried to escape were killed. No one was spared and after only three hours, the LRA retreated from the camp.
Remembering the dead:
There is a cement mass grave and memorial statue commemorating the massacre of Barlonyo camp. As seen above, the official government record claims that only 121 were massacred at Barlonyo even though the death toll was over 300 people according to community members and the camp commanders list. The actual number can never be known, as many lost were young children or left no one to account for them.
Every year a prayer ceremony takes place on 21 February to remember the massacre. Representatives from the government attend and the entire community comes together to pray for the massacre victims: “The prayer ceremonies are good because people from other places come together. It makes them know people love them, council them, it makes them normal.”
Some survivors hold on to some of the possessions of los friends and family members as a way of remembering them. For those who did not have their hut burned down, objects such as ID cards, cooking pots, and clothing are a way to remember their lost loved ones.
A group of Barlonyo community members performs dramatic performances about the massacre to both visitors and the people of Barlonyo. The performances are done by a local youth group as a way of bringing people together and coping with the massacre. “It makes them remember what happened here. It helps them with their trauma… It’s not just for the sake of playing but bringing people together.”
As the Barlonyo community moves on after the massacre, men and women are worried about poverty, hunger and sickness in their daily lives. One Barlonyo resident said: “We ne3ed institutions at Barlonyo to remember. Hospitals, security, education, better memorials.”
Not only can institutions serve as a memorial to the massacre, but they can help the Barlonyo community recover from their experiences and flourish in the aftermath of the civil war. The needs described on the next page were based on a series of conversations with the people of Barlonyo.
. Boreholes – we need more water, the stream is dirty
.Children with disabilities needs to be able to go to school
. A better health centre
. “Churches, schools, youth centres”
. Support for the EVI’s remaining in Barlonyo
.Sensitization centers/programs
.Agriculture projects that increase productivity
. “Repair the roads”
.Income generations activities
.Graves were not cemented properly
.We need a fence to protect the memorials
.”A child cannot afford the cost of books.”
.Compensation for the killed should come from the government
.”NGOs and the government should supply these things.”
Today the people of Barlonyo are returning to their ancestral homes. They focus on cultivating their gardens, providing for their families, and educating their children.
Without fulfilling community need, like provision of hospitals and schools, the community will continue to face many challenges. “We want our children to know the impact of the massacre.”
“It is important to remember the past while also looking towards prospects for the future. The Barlonyo community needs to remember their past while having the opportunity top provide for the next generation of Barlonyo. The task before Barlonyo today is to thrive in the villages while giving respect to the loved ones they have lost. Many people explained the importance of memory to them as a way for the children to know their ancestors, as well as a lesson so that a tragedy like Barlonyo never happens again.
It is becoming so that they cannot remember really… We need to remember the massacre and to give it to our children so that they can remember our beloved ancestors.
It is with this spirit of remembrance alongside the need to move forward that characterizes Barlonyo and the aftermath of the massacre today.”
Survivors of the Lord’s Resistance Army insurgency in Lira District have appealed to the International Criminal Court (ICC) to hold part of the trials of former Joseph Kony's LRA commander Dominic Ongwen at Barlonyo site where the rebels reportedly massacred 300 people in 2004
Brainstorming & Collaborative Session of MCHIP, USAID &Rotary Club of Greek, Sep 23, 2014
Thousands of women and newborns in Pakistan die each year as a result of preventable complications of pregnancy and childbirth. Pakistan’s maternal mortality ratio at 276 per 100,000 live births (2006-2007 Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey) is one of the highest in South Asia. Most of these deaths can be prevented if there were enough properly trained, competent and supported midwives working in the communities and in a functional health system.
The Maternal & Child health Integrated Program (MCHIP) along with program partner USAID and event partners Rotary Clubs of R.I district 3271 met on 20 September 2014 for a brainstorming and collaborative event. There were presentations on the importance of support for midwives in the community, challenges faced by maternal and child health and efforts that can be undertaken by corporate partners in improving quality of maternal and child health practice in Pakistan. The brainstorming session focused on supporting community midwives, improvement of quality of mother and child health services and a dire need for community distribution of misoprostol and chlorhexidine.
Held at a Marriott hotel karachi, the session’s audience had over 70 participants and included doctors, obstetricians, businessmen and philanthropists. During the event; Shaan Technologies private Limited, corporate partners with MCHIP/Jhpiego presented a documentary video about application of solar energy for remote clinics. Shaantech also donated 10 solar LED lamps for community midwives.
Residents of Thomasboro engaged with community agencies during a collaborative event that brought people together to share food, fun, and educational resources benefiting childhood development and economic opportunity. Charlotte Mecklenburg Library provided information on learning programs such as Summer Break and Active Reading; access to educational resources through ONE Access and live homework help; resources on continuing education; hands-on technology and literacy for teens; book giveaways; and storytelling through friend of the Library, Ramona Big Eagle. BBQ was provided by Noble Smoke, and music by artists JustHIS League. Games and face painting were also among fun activities for kids.
Giving hope and transformation for Charlotte’s most at-risk neighborhoods, Charlotte Mecklenburg Dream Center sponsored the event as a part of their Adopt-A-Block kickoff, which seeks to connect with residents through faith-based outreach.

The Maternal & Child health Integrated Program (MCHIP) along with program partner USAID and event partners Rotary Clubs of R.I district 3271 met on 20 September 2014 for a brainstorming and collaborative event. There were presentations on the importance of support for midwives in the community, challenges faced by maternal and child health and efforts that can be undertaken by corporate partners in improving quality of maternal and child health practice in Pakistan. The brainstorming session focused on supporting community midwives, improvement of quality of mother and child health services and a dire need for community distribution of misoprostol and chlorhexidine.
Held at a Marriott hotel karachi, the session’s audience had over 70 participants and included doctors, obstetricians, businessmen and philanthropists. During the event; Shaan Technologies private Limited, corporate partners with MCHIP/Jhpiego presented a documentary video about application of solar energy for remote clinics. Shaantech also donated 10 solar LED lamps for community midwives.
Residents of Thomasboro engaged with community agencies during a collaborative event that brought people together to share food, fun, and educational resources benefiting childhood development and economic opportunity. Charlotte Mecklenburg Library provided information on learning programs such as Summer Break and Active Reading; access to educational resources through ONE Access and live homework help; resources on continuing education; hands-on technology and literacy for teens; book giveaways; and storytelling through friend of the Library, Ramona Big Eagle. BBQ was provided by Noble Smoke, and music by artists JustHIS League. Games and face painting were also among fun activities for kids.
Giving hope and transformation for Charlotte’s most at-risk neighborhoods, Charlotte Mecklenburg Dream Center sponsored the event as a part of their Adopt-A-Block kickoff, which seeks to connect with residents through faith-based outreach.
