Dear friends,
Following my visit to Mego Anek Lucy on 13/04/2020 after she was savagely beaten by her Grandson, Okello Brian, a number of you reached out to me and asked whether I could help receive your contributions and send to Mego Anek Lucy.
Today April 16th 2020, we had a meeting with the leadership of Omoro District, Director of GWED-G, Director Flama Uganda and the Chairman LC1 of Ami-Lobo village, LC3 Chairman of Ongako, the granddaughter of Mego Anek who is currently taking care of her at Flama-Uganda, Counsel Julius Ojok, Ms.Stella Kijange, Ladit Mawa Francis, Marc Anthony and a few other people who have also been raising money to help mego Anek Lucy. This meeting was majorly to create a proper coordination mechanism so that all those who have expressed interest in helping or those who are raising money can have a more coordinated approach.
The meeting resolved that the Director of Flama-Uganda should head a small committee and work closely with Mego and her relatives as well as the leadership of Omoro to ensure that all the contributions/donations reach her or handled in a manner that will address her needs and in the most accountable & transparent manner.
