The shocking stories from the Congolese refugees in Sudan

It is difficult to imagine the devastating situation of the Congolese Refugees under the cruel hands of the Uganda Lord Resistance Army (LRA). These Congolese people have been subjected to all kinds of atrocities that have resulted in the brutal killings, abduction of their children, torture and rape. Because of these, some of them managed to escape for their dear life to neighboring Southern Sudan in Western Equatorial. Apart from the enormous loss of human life the war has caused a total distraction on property which is beyond imagination. Many people are rendered homeless and are forced to live a nomadic and desperate life in the jangles of Western Equatorial. There is total calamity on both the refugees and the hosting communities as well as on the life of the Church where most of these people resides for accommodation to escape the heavy rains of Western Equatorial. As a result many people are forced to survive on wild fruits; Women and children are the most vulnerable.
