Rwot David Onen Acana II, Acholi chiefs Dethrone him, but the Prime Minister Acholi Ker Kwaro Ambruse Oola send message to disown the currect issue

Rwot David Onen Acana II, knew all the Government Agenda, the bad and the goods. How Uganda
dictator President Museveni is doing, but kept it for himself. But, we shall not.
For over two decades, Apaa land conflict has been rising. Madi community have been raiding Amuru
district to the extent where the Ministry of Land, Water and Environment came to survey Amuru district,
Apaa area annexing it to become part of Adjumani district, where he was.
Karamojong cattle rustlers is killing our people in Agago and Kitgum district with impunity, what is he
doing, when Acholi chiefs called for attention of Rwot Acana as being Acholi paramount chief to lead his
fellow chiefs to go and meet both party’s leadership that are involved in the land conflict, he is very
reluctant.
GULU CITY-TUESDAY, JULY, 4, 2023. From time to time Acholi or Luo chiefdom has no King.
Rwot David Onen Acana II, have registered Ker Kwaro Acholi as private Company liability with shares
among his cryonic, despite glaring objects of poverty amidst land grabbing by the Sebogabi regime.
Rwot Richard Santos Apire, of Atiak chiefdom, a newly elected Acholi Paramount Chief spat Snake
venom during a press conference at his home at Lacor Center, Gulu City on Friday, 30. June, 2023 last
week still maintained the position by the Seven Chiefs headed by Collin Mutu Atiko, Rwot of Patiko who
was accompanied by others namely; Rwot Ociti Binyi of Pagak, Ochan Jimmy Luwala of Puranga among
others.
“We have given Rwot Acana 14 days to evacuate Ker Kwaro Acholi, failure to do so, we are going to
force him out of Ker Kwaro. Or use administrative measures.  I would like to categorically tell our
people, the Acholi Community or Luo, that we, the 40 Council of chiefs of the Acholi chiefdom, are
ready to force him out from the leadership of Ker Kwaro Acholi. The Acholi Chiefdom palace. Because
Acholi land has been endowed with minerals, we have the biggest Phosphate ore in Africa, in Nyilak hill,
we have Garaphines mineral in Orom Sub County, Kitgum district, which the Uganda government is
already mining, we have the biggest Oil well in Acholi Sub Region. But the government of Uganda is
saying Oil well is in the Bunyoro region.” Paramount Chief Onen Acana II, never disclosed or reacted to
our calls.

Rwot Apire, outline that Rwot David Onen Acana, every time since when he is attending conference or
called by the president Museveni, he had the opportunity to give us such valuable data information, but
never do it, Rwot David Acana II never disclosed such important information.'' Why was he doing that,
the new elected paramount chief Apire asked the question.
When Uganda dictator President Museveni's henchmen took over Apaa land, why did he not press him
not to grab Apaa land. When Karamojong cattle rustlers raided and killed more than 1,000 in Agago and
Kitgum districts, why couldn't he arrange for Acholi leadership to meet the president?
