France, Italy, Austria and the US. Lado was then named Equatoria and was administered by Egypt under the Ottoman (Turkish) Empire.

After twenty-one years of fierce fighting to oust the Foreign Invaders, the Belgians, who had remained with the British to share Lado between them, decided to withdraw their troops.

Made a False
Document to
Lease Lado
Britain, however, refused to let go of their Precious Conquest.
"Since they could not own Lado by Legal means or on the Battlefield, they drew up a False Document saying that Belgium had Leased Equatoria (Lado) to Britain", says King John Bart Agami, Onzima II of Lado, who heads the Lado Provisional Government from his refuge in Denmark.

"After several failed attempts to Force or Bribe the Kings of Lado, first my Great Grandfather, HM Ayingani, then myGrandfather HM Lemiro, followed by my Father HM Anacleto Atobua and myself to hand over the Sovereignty of Lado to the British Crown the British resorted to cheating and used the false Lease Contract in September 1892.

In 1948 my father was close to get Recognition of the Lado State as a Sovereign National Entity in the UN General Assembly", says King John Bart Agami. "Just as he was about to leave for New York the British had him shot by an assassin outside his house in the Lado Capital Arua Aru."

Lado King under
UN Protection after
Countless Assassination
Attempts
The present King of Lado, King John Bart Agami, has lived ever since in danger of being assassinated for his steadfast Refusal to Bow to the British Demands. He was imprisoned, Tortured and


finally managed to escape before Execution from the Military Maximum Security Prison in Kampala, Uganda, the Obedient Neighbouring State which is the "Jewel of British African Commonwealth".

Belgium Recognised
Lado as an Independent
Country in 1892
Though Belgium recognised Lado as a Sovereign State in its own right back in 1892, the Belgians were bound by the Paris Treaty, the Berlin Treaty and the Vienna Convention to side with Britain in the Question of the Colonies and the Partition of the African Continent.
So, at least formally, though not practically, Belgium is still Responsible for the present day Illegal Occupation of Lado.

EU Countries
Desperate to Fill
State Coffers
"According to International Law and to the UN General Assembly Resolution 1514 (XV) of 14 December 1960 and UN General Assembly Resolution 43/47 of 22 November 1988, Ladois 'Occupied Territory', and if the International Community had a Will to abide by International Law, Lado would have been an Independent Nation State by the year 2000", says King Agami.

"Indeed, Britain's Queen, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, promised Lado Independence in 1960. However, the Countries of the European Union are so Desperate to fill their State Coffers and the Pockets of their Corporate Share Holders that they have no second thoughts about Robbing Lado's Natural Resources and Grabbing Lado Agricultural Land for Pig Farming and other Industrial Projects which are unpopular and not feasible in Europe due to the Carbon Issue and the Global Warming lobby."

10 Million
Lado People
Sacrifised
"They don't think twice about turning Virgin Land into a Wasteland and to cause Death and Expulsion of hundreds and


thousands lives, even several million lives in the case of Lado People, whose Ancestors have been the Caretakers of our Ancient and Sacred Ladoland for Centuries. This has been the case ever since our people left Egypt around 700 b.C. and settled at Mount Lado in the northern part of Lado", says King Agami.

"During the Late Period (712-3032 b.C.) of the Reign of the Egyptian Pharaos Nubia was part of Egypt. In 712 b.C. Lado People under King Alia joined forces with Nubian King Pianike in an uprising to free themselves from slavery in Egypt. When King Alia was killed in 704 b.C., his son Laro continued the fight, and finally Lado People succeeded to break loose and leave Egypt. All this took place in the 25th Dynastyof the Egyptian Pharaos under Pharao Shabaka (712-698 b.C.) of the Nefrikare Dynasty. This was the beginning of the end of the great Egyptian Pharaos.

"Lado People lived peacefully inside their borders up till the Occupation of the Ottoman Empire when Lado was once again ruled from Egypt on behalf of the Ottoman Empire. Still under the Ottoman Empire Lado was once again occupied in 1871, this time by Western Forces (U.S., Britain and their European Allies) - and the present Occupation by Britain and Belgium has lasted since the fall of the Ottoman Empire in 1947.

The present Occupiers are so Desperate to hold on to their Loot that since 1980 close to 10 million Lado People have been killed. These Victims can only be seen as 'Sacrificial Lambs'


Fear of Repercussions, and they have been told that their King is Dead, and that the entire Royal Family of Lado has become extinct. Therefore Lado People have been given to believe that there is no Hope for the Resurrection of the State of Lado in Central Africa", says the King.

Winds of Change
Blowing in Lado
But the Winds of Change have started to blow in mountainous Lado, the Rooftop of Africa, as the young People of Lado are set on breaking out of the Colonial mental and physical Prison and Demand to know their True Identity.

Lado is
a Historical
Treasure Box
"Lado History and Identity have been Hijacked and locked away for too long, and the Key to the Lado Historical Treasure Box is Ready to open up so that we canrealise our Dreams for the Independence and Sovereign Nation State of Lado. Then we will Sweep away the mouldy Ghost of British and Colonial Rule", concludes King John Bart Agami.

Lado News - Message From King John Bart Agami, Agofe of Lado:
The State of Lado is on the Road to Independence...

The present turmoil and unrest in several African Countries, with Kenye as the immediate example, is naturally disturbing and sad because many People are affected by Death, Violence and Loss of Property.

However, according to the Agofe of Lado, King John Bart Agami, in the midst of all this Misery and Injustice against the African Population, there is a glimmer of Hope for the African Peoples and Countries in shaping their own Future.

The Agofe, Onzima II of Lado,


has been fighting an untiring battle to put the State of Lado in Central Africa back on the map since the forbidden name of "Lado" was erased from the Maps of the World by the European Colonial Masters.

Lado kept in Stranglehold
of Joint Illegal Occupation since 1947
Since 1947 Lado - the "Lado Enclave" or "Equatoria" - which is situated in the Great Lakes Region in the Upper Nile Valley, has been kept in a Stranglehold by the European Powers Britain and Belgium who have joined in an Occupation of Lado.

"The Joint Illegal Occupation of Lado by Britain and Belgium in 1947 has made the State of Lado into two Cultural Sectors: (a) the French Speaking Lado to the West (Belgian), and (b) the English Speaking Lado to the East(British)", says King John Bart Agami. "The Act of Occupation alone is not consistent with the Treaty of Berlin 26 February 1885, Articles 6, 12, 15, including 34. However, the British/Belgian Occupation of Lado was not translated into complete Colonial or Protectorate Status by Treaty signed by the Agofe of Lado."

European Colonial Masters
Cannot Inherit the State of Lado
"Consequently, the Former Colonial and Protectorate Countries of Belgium and Britain cannot inherit the State of Lado, which still exists as a Political Entity and as a Nation State of Lado. However, it is a Fact that the State of Lado is an Occupied Territory, first by the Ottoman Empire (Turkey) on 26 May 1871, and by Belgium-Britain jointly from 15 May 1947."

The King emphasizes that Lado People have never accepted


Foreign Rule, and that Lado is the only African Nation that never signed over her Sovereignty to Colonial Powers.

"By standing firm and demanding our Right to Exist and to be Recognized as a Sovereign Nation State by the International Community, Lado has stood out as a Beacon and an Example for the People all over Africa who will no longer tolerate Suppression and Enslavement in their own Homelands.

After four hundred years of Slavery (during 1440-1840), Degradation and Poverty, the African People were left in a State of Shock. And it is little wonder that they chose to lull themselves into Apathy in order just to try to Survive", states the Agofe who sees the present Unrest in Africa as a sign that the African People are Awakening fromPolitics where the President still reigns Supreme with the Backing of Britain and Britain's Scandinavian Allies who will gladly Support Uganda to suit their own Interests", says the King.

"Uganda has for many years been the 'Darling' of the Anglo-American Powers and their Scandinavian Allies, who are Running and Controlling the Ugandan Administrative System, and in this way are in a position to use Colonial Uganda as a Stepping Stone to take over and usurp Lado's Natural Resources and Drive out the Inhabitants: The Lado People who have become Refugees and 'Displaced Persons' in their own Homeland.

This situation has become Intolerable to the People of Lado, and they have started to take matters into their own Hands, and to Stand Up for their Rights and for what is rightfully


theirs.

Like their Neighbours in Northern Uganda, the Local Lado People have Bravely Protested and Fought the Ugandan Government, who had made a Deal for the Sale of Virgin Forest Land to a Canadian Lumber Company.

The Lado People successfully stopped the Devastation to their Natural Resources which would have Laid Waste valuable woodlands into Arid Desert if Big Business had its way.", says King John Bart Agami.

Success Stories Throughout
Lado to Stop Big Business Plans
Other Success Stories throughout Lado, such as the Lado initiative to stop Oil Drilling, the UK Indians' Plans of Sugar Plantations and the Colonial and Corporate Plan to turn Lado into a Giant Pig and GMO Soya Beans Farming Area, which would have resulted in Widespread Pollution, have given the Lado People the Courage and theDetermination to fight for what they Believe in.

"That is the Territorial Integrity of Lado and the Sovereignty of Lado and the Independence of Lado", the King states, and continues: "The Days of Imperialism and Colonial Power are gone, and a New Age of Freedom and Independence is Emerging. We want Freedom of Lado.

The Powers who have held Command of the World for the last four hundred years, are losing their Hold of the World, and the African Nations want to Write their own History.

For much too long the Oppressors have Occupied, Raped, and Erased the African History, but the Lado People are beginning to find and recognize their Rich Cultural Heritage as the Ancient Kingdom Created on the Remnants of the Old Egypt as early as 700 BC,


when Lado was founded under the name "Ladoland" and on 9 May 847 AD when the Modern Lado was Established."

The Restoration
of The State of Lado
"Lado People will Stand Firm to see that the Lado Sovereign Nation State is Restored with its Original Boundaries from 1887-1907, and the State of Lado is Recognized by the U.N. and the World Community", concludes King John Bart Agami.

Cover-up Operation Against Lado...
By Press Officer
Britt Bartenbach

A Multinational Force consisting of 11,000 troops from 'Nations of the Willing' are preparing to make a swift move of insurgence to North Lado (Central Africa).

Officially they are to supervise the 'Nairobi Agreement' of 9 January 2005 which is to bring Peace between the Rebel Forces SPLM (Sudan People's Liberation Movement) and the Sudan Government in Khartoum.

Long-termObjective
to Destroy Lado
However, there is no doubt that behind the move is the long-term Objective to Destroy Lado, the Lado State in Central Africa situated in the Great Lakes Region and in the Nile-Congo Watershed Region, which is falsely shown on the map as Southern Sudan and DR Congo. But it is the Northern Territory of Lado ("Equatoria and Ituri Province of Lado" since 1871).

Occupation of Lado
under the UN Banner
"Once again the UN is being used as a shield to gain access to Lado Territory which is difficult to conquer.

To cover an Illegal Invasion it is most convenient to let the Operation go ahead under the UN Banner", says the Agofe (King) of Lado, Onzima II, Dr. John Bart Agami, from his refuge in Denmark from where he


is the Head of the State of Lado.

Keeping Up Illegal
Occupation of Lado
"The UN is assisting those who have been Waging a War against the Lado Issue of Independence since 1947.

Till today Britain has doggedly refused to let go of Lado Territory, which comprises the Ituri Province of Lado which shares borders with North-East Congo, and where more than Four Million Lado People have been Killed in the last ten years", says the King.

In that same Ituri Province, where UN troops have been posted for the past three years to 'protect' the Lado People from Attacks and Massacres carried out by insurging troops from the British controlled Uganda and Rwanda - and with additional troops consisting of soldiers from Kenya, South Africa and the US - there have beengrave Sexual Abuses by these UN troops against minors and young women of the Lado population. All of which has recently been admitted publicly by the UN, and a UN report is currently being made on the situation.

Abductions and Sexual Abuses from UN
Commonwealth Soldiers the Order of the Day
The citizens of Lado in the Ituri Province had enjoyed relative Peace and Protection when Uruguayan UN troops had been stationed in the Province (Ituri Province).

However, since the Uruguayans were replaced by the 'UN Peacekeepers' (Troops) from the British Commonwealth countries: Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh and South Africa, the Devil has been on the loose in the Ituri Province of Lado.

"Our Lado People in the Ituri Province are living in speechless Terror from these UN Forces (Peacekeepers) who make daily raids


ordered to attack their own Lado Villages and Families in the Ituri Province."

UN BombingRaids
on KZ Camps
However, some of the Ituri People (Citizens) of Lado finally decided to defend their families which resulted in armed skirmishes that ended with the death of nine UN Commonwealth Soldiers.

This defiance of the Lado People so angered the UN Garrison that UN Troops launched Bombing Attacks on the Ariwara Camp and on other camps which Killed more than sixty Innocent and Defenseless Women and Children and wounded hun-dreds more Lado People in the Ituri Province of Lado.

Lado Protest to the
UN Security Council
"On behalf of the Provisional Government of Lado we have sent a Protest Letter to the UN Security Council, dated 11 March 2005", says King Agami.

"However, the UN has not reacted yet,apart from Dismissing the Lado Protest by saying that the UN Soldiers Killed Lado People in the Ituri Province in "Self Defence".

The UN's next move was to give the 'Go Ahead' for the Occupation and Final Annihilation of the Nation State of Lado and of the Lado People who are apparently not allowed to inhabit this World, and especially not their own and Ancient Homeland of Lado in Central Africa."

UN has Become
a War Machine
"The UN has turned into a War Machine. It has Betrayed its Purpose to Protect the Weak and the Poor against the Insatiable Greed of the Rich and the Powerful", says the King, who is appalled by the willingness of the UN, to comply with and to bend to the Interests of the Powerful and


Warmongering Nations, spearheaded by Britain and their Allies - and with the Support of the less noticeable Nations in the European Union, the old Slave Traders and Slave Transporteers.

Recolonisation by
Old Slave Masters
"It looks like the UN has ganged up with the 'Colonial Masters of the World', who are the same Nations that made their Riches on the Slave Trade by Exporting Millions of Africans like 'Livestock' to their Colonies in the West, in the USA, and the West Indian Islands in the Caribbean Sea through four hundred years 1440-1840", stresses King Agami.

"They forced their Reign of Terror upon us, but they never succeeded in Colonising Lado.

And Lado never signed over its Sovereignty to any Foreign Power.

This is why the continued Occupation by the British is Illegal according toInternational Law - and so is the UN Force which the UN Secretary General Kofi Annan has condoned to force their way into the Territory of Lado (Central Africa)."

Blitz War to Obstruct Lado Independence
and the Return for Lado to the Nation State Status
"The UN Decision to deploy Foreign Troops on Lado Territory is a Panic Move to Obstruct the Imminent Declaration of Independence for Lado which the UN is well aware was to be announced this year (2005)", says the King.

"The Ploy is to carry out a 'Blitzkrieg' under the Cover of a 'Peacekeeping Mission' between the Warring Factions in our neighbouring country Sudan.

But the skirmishes in Sudan, involving the SPLM and the Darfur Crisis - which are both Orchestrated and Financed by Britain, the USA and their


Corporations and Companies - have nothing to do with Lado. And Lado will not allow its Territory to be used as a Base for UN Troops in Lado Land (Central Africa)."

Reign of Terror Paved the
Way for Occupation of Lado
Lado has suffered greatly from the Reign of Terror of the SPLM (Sudan People's Liberation Movement). The Khartoum Government has been made to promise the position of Vice President in Sudan to SPLM. The Nairobi Agreement of 9 January 2005 between the Sudan Government and the SPLM does not include the Equatoria (Lado).

The official name of Lado was changed on 20 May 1871 to "Equatoria Province of Egypt".

Lado was Occupied on 26 May 1871 under the Sovereignty of the Ottoman Empire (Turkey), and was administered from E-gypt as the "EquatoriaPeople of Lado (Slave Labour) and Sex Services.

The Occupation of Lado Snubs
UN General Assembly Vote on Lado (Africa)
The news to Deploy 11,000 troops in Lado snubs the real chance which Lado has to let the Issue of Independence be decided by Vote at the UN General Assembly later this year (2005).

"The UN Security Council has refused to implement the UN General Assembly Resolution 1514 (XV) of 14 December 1960 and the UN General Assembly Resolution 43/47 of 22 November 1988, and which a Majority Vote of the UN General Assembly can force the UN Security Council to abide to", says King Agami.

"And that will eventually result in real Peace and Stability in Lado and in the Region of Central Africa.

But that is obviously not the Objective of the


as the So-vereign and Independent State of Lado.

UN Secretary General Kofi Annan has desperately been trying to avoid a new Genocide which threatens to outnumber the Genocide of Hutus and Tutsis in Rwanda - a Genocide for which the UN had to apologise for its share of responsibility.

Genocide
in Lado
However, a Genocide of a much greater Magnitude has been taking place for the past ten to twenty years in the State of Lado which is loc-ated in the very centre of the Great Lakes Region, in the Great Western Rift Valley of Africa and in the Upper Nile Valley of Africa. Lado is also situated on the Nile-Congo Watershed or Divide Region of Africa, and due to Lado's elevated position, Lado is often referred to as the 'Continental Watershed(Chateau d'Eaux)of Africa'.

UN Security Council to
Recognise Lado Issue
"The UN Security Council cannot expect any Peace in Central Africa until they recognise that such a Peace, and a lasting Peace, is depending on the Recognition of the State of Lado and the Lado People's Right to Exist as an Independent Sover-eign State of Lado", says the Agofe of Lado, King John Bart Agami (Onzima II).

Precious Time has
been Wasted by UN
"Precious time has already been wasted since 1947 with the pussyfooting of the UN who are anxious to avoid another Bloodbath of Historic Proportions. So, if the UN Secretary General is sincere, he will no longer hesitate to call for a Political Solution, including the Lado Issue of Sovereignty and Independence", says King Agami (Agofe of Lado).

A UN Peacekeeping Force


Demands of Mighty Britain, and that the UN and the International Community prefer to pretend that the State of Lado and the Lado People in Central Africa do not exist.

They have adopted this attitude, without taking into account that the modern Nation State of Lado was established in 847 AD, and that the Ancient Lado was founded already in 700 BC."

Britain Keeping the Iron Boot on
the Occupation of Lado
"The Lado People have managed to look after their own Affairs inside the State of Lado in spite of being an 'Occupied Territory' by Britain and Belgium who have forced upon us an Occupation since 1947.

The European States divided the African Continent amongst them on 3 August 1875 (the Paris Resolution) and again on 26 February 1885 (the Berlin Treaty)where they took African Freedom and Liberty and imposed their Religion and their Values on the African Peoples", says King Agami (Agofe of Lado).

Plan is to Reinstall
Colonial Rule in Africa
"Nobody cared then that the African Continent consisted of Ancient Countries and Kingdoms which were much older and possessed a Richer Culture than that of the European States. Just as the Europeans and the US have now drawn up a Blueprint to divide the Middle East, im-posing their Values, i.e. Religion, Market Economy, Education and socalled Human Rights on the Populations in that Region bombing them into 'Democracy' if they don't submit willingly.

This same 'Gunboat Diplomacy' was used on the Af-rican leadership more than a Century ago, and in South America five Centuries ago.

In this Grand Chessboard of the


World, where the Winners take it all, the Plan is that the African Continent is to remain under the Dominion of Europe, or rather under the extended EC/EU, who will Dominate the Continent under Colonial Rule."

British Plan to Annex Lado into
Sudan and Uganda
"Under these Auspices the British are planning to Annex Lado into Uganda, which is a British Protectorate under the British Commonwealth and into the Republic of Sudan, the former Anglo-Egyptian Condeminium (Anglo-Egyptian Sudan)", says the King (Agofe of Lado).

"Neighbouring Uganda, whose Public Service Sector is being administered by Foreign Countries on behalf of Britain, is suffering from food shortages, poverty and HIV/AIDS epidemics.

Uganda is dissolving rapidly in growing unrest and Rebellion against its Leadership who is using brutal Military Force to clear land in Northern Ugandawhere they chase People away by gunpoint and imprison them in Concentration Camps.

The same methods are being used against the Lado People to clear land for Corporate Business.

The Ugandan Government has planned forcefully to remove Madi People in the Nile Region of Lado from Metu along the River Nile through Laropi, Obongi and Bura (Rhino Camp) to clear the Land for 'Multinational Business Corporations'.

Where will these Madi People go (hundreds of thousands of men, women and children) - apart from being Exterminated?

But the Lado Council of Chiefs and the Lado Provisional Government have requested the Ugandan Government to withdraw its plan of depriving the People of Madi Kalavu of their Ancestral Mother Land."

Almost Four Million
Lado People Killed Since 1980
The Refusal to give in to the Oppressors and the


Vultures, represented by the Multinational Companies, has come with a great cost, and the cost for Lado during the past ten to twenty years is almost four million Lado People who have been killed in what can only be described as the 'Genocide in Lado' (Central Africa).

Culture of Violence
and Greed
"The African Continent, and especially Central Africa in the midst of the Great Lakes Region, is one of the few places on Earth where there is still no lack of Natural Resources, and that is why the socalled 'Civilised Countries', who should more fittingly be named 'the Countries of the Culture of Violence and Greed' are so focused on Controlling the African Continent, and by Controlling Lado, that they want to be in total Control of the Land ofbut in the whole World.

The European States and the EU (European Union) are still reluctant to face realities, and they all prefer to bury the Lado Issue in the sand as they have done up till now in 2004.

They think that this provides them with an excuse to avoid solving the Situation politically, and they think that this might free them from sharing the Responsibility with Britain, who, with their backers the US, are refusing to let go of their Occupation of Lado, Central Africa."

Lado is Requesting Political and
Diplomatic Support
"The Lado Provisional Government is requesting the Political and Diplomatic Support from and through the UN in order to avoid the inevitable War for the Independence of Lado and the Sovereignty of Lado (Central Africa)", says the King.

"All that


the People of Lado want and demand is the Right to Freedom and Liberty from the Intolerable Situation of Foreign Occupation of Lado.

Lado has never been Colonised, although Occupied, in contrast to so many other African States. And therefore, Noone has any Legal Right to Occupy Lado.

We, the Lado People, demand Independence of Lado and Sovereignty of Lado, and we will build up our Nation to Prosper in Peaceful co-existence with our neighbouring countries, Congo-Zaire, Sudan, Uganda, CAR (Central African Republic), Kenya and Ethiopia.

An Independent Sovereign State of Lado shall use the Natural Resources and the Human Resources for the Benefit of the People of Lado, Central Africa", says the King (Agofe of Lado).

Lado Needs International Recognition
as a Sovereign State
Since Lado was never Colonised, it has never handedLoot and Kill in Lado ( Africa)", says the King (Agofe of Lado).

Multinational Companies and Their Mercenaries
Behave like Warlords

More than fifty Foreign Com-panies are looting in Lado, and they have bought Protection from National Armies of some of the Neighbouring Countries and have hired the services of Private Companies providing Military Assistance in the form of Mercenaries, who are led by retired Foreign Colonels and Generals from Armies from Europe and North America.

These Companies and their Hired Hands, who are also hired by the Companies' Nation States, behave like Warlords of the most brutal kind, and they are not governed or restricted by any International Law or UN Conventions.

These Warlords have a Vested Interest in clearing the Lado Territory from its Rightful Owners because they own Shares in


the Companies who have hired them to carry out their Bloody Business.

British want to
Kill the State of Lado
"The British, who have been sharing the Occupation of Lado with Belgium since 1947, are doing everything in their Power, and are using their Position in International Affairs and in the UN Security Council, to kill the State of Lado, and they are using their former African Colonies, their African Protectorates and their African Territories to do just that", says the King (Agofe of Lado)

"Britain's Prime Minister Tony Blair's African Creation, the 'Africa Commission' has been set in motion with the main objective to finish off and Annihilate the State of Lado and to erase all trace of the Lado People from World Records", says King Agami (Agofe of Lado).

"The Republicof South Africa and the Republic of Nigeria have been chosen to spearhead this Initiative, and in this capacity The Republic of South Africa and The Republic of Nigeria have been appointed Britain's African Commissioners for NEPAD.

By doing so, the Right Honourable Mr. Blair is co-vering 'British Conspiracy' under the Cloak of African Affairs, and pretending that the Slaughter of a Nation and an Entire People - the Nation State of Lado and the People of Lado - are merely an 'African Affair' to be dealt with solely by the African Union (AU).

This Foreign Created Institution, the AU, is nothing but a copy of the EU, and Lado does not want to be a part of that AU.

The EU and the European Countries, who Colonised and Raped the


Ancient African Kingdoms and oper-ated their profitable Slave Trade, are Responsible for the present Chaos and Conflict raging on the African Continent because the Colonialisation of Africa has never ended till today.

The Europeans, i.e. the British and the US, are wielding their Power through their willing Stooges and Puppet Leaders in the former Colonies who get their Share of the Spoils by Oppressing, Enslaving and Betraying their own People and their own Countries in Africa.

The European created African Union (AU) is imposed on African Countries as European imposed Artificial Borders on the Continent of Africa by the Berlin Treaty (General Acts) of 26 February 1885", says the King.

UN Secretary General
Must Act to Save the Lado People
"Instead of closing his eyes and ears and letting this International Conspiracy againstof Lado, and then the UN shall be regarded as practising a Policy of Discrimination and Racism against the Lado People in Central Africa."

Is the United Nations Part of the International
Conspiracy to Kill Lado?
"Does the UN Secretary General's Silence and his Lack of Noise mean that he doesn't know about the Issue of Lado?

Does it mean that he has not been informed about the Issue of Lado?

Or does it simply mean that he does not care about the Issue of Lado", asks the King (Agofe of Lado).

"Or is the United Nations part of this International Conspiracy to Kill the State of Lado?.

Whichever the reason, the Lado Provisional Government intends to pursue its Commitment to finding a Political Solution to solve the Question of Lado and the Crisis in


Central Africa.

The Proper lasting Political Solution to achieve Peace in Central Africa is to call for another Berlin Conference which will pave the way for the Independence of Lado and the Sovereignty of the Nation State of Lado in Central Africa in the Great Lakes Region.

Alternatively, the UN Security Council could call for a UN Conference on the Question of Lado which would also pave the way to the Independence of Lado and the Sovereignty of Lado (Central Africa)", concludes King Agami (Agofe of Lado).

LADO Stepping Into
Freedom and Liberty...

By Press Officer
Britt Bartenbach

After more than fifty years in the Shadows of International Politics and World Affairs the LADO Enclave in Equatorial Central Africa (ECA) in the Heart of Africa, LADO, is finally breaking through the Iron Curtainwhich has encircled LADO since the British secret Occupation of Egypt in 1882.

During that time Egypt was a Possession of the Ottoman Empire under which LADO was administered through Egypt under the Sovereignty of the Ottoman Empire (Turkey), and since 1947 LADO is still, up till today in 2004, an Occupied Territory by Belgium and Britain.

By this Occupation of LADO both countries (Belgium and Britain) have the Responsibilty to the Occupied People of LADO, as "Non-Self-Governing Territory", to prepare them (LADO) for Independence and Sovereignty.

By refusing to allow the Independence and Sovereignty of LADO, Belgium and Britain are in Breach of Article 1 and Article 73 of the UN Charter of 26 June 1945.

In the Event that Belgium and Britain choose to continue Obstructing and Hindering the Independence


and Sovereignty of LADO, Article 51 of the UN Charter of 1945 steps into force.

Article 51 gives the People of the Occupied Territory of LADO the Right to take up Arms for Self Defence and for the Protection of the People of LADO, the Property of LADO and the Natural Resources of LADO.

LADO to have been
Independent in 1923
During Ottoman Rule LADO had been administered by and through Egypt, and this continued as LADO was still the 'Equatoria Province of Egypt' under the Sovereignty of the Ottoman Empire (now Turkey) until 1923 when the Ottoman Empire was dissolved by the Treaty of Lausanne of 24 July 1923.

According to the Lausanne Treaty, the Ottoman Empire, which had now become the Republic of Turkey in 1923, had to relinquish all theTerritories under the then Ottoman Empire.

This included Egypt and LADO (Equatoria Province of Egypt), and meant that the Occupied Territories were and still remain Political Entities (Nation States).

That means that LADO should have been an Independent and Sovereign Nation State in 1923.

"As an Area under Egyptian administration LADO ought legally to have followed suit and shed the chains of Foreign Domination, be it either Ottoman or British/European Rule", says the Agofe of LADO, King John Bart Agami (Onzima II) who is the Sovereign of LADO (the Chief of State/Head of State). The Head of Provisional Government of LADO is the Keego (Prime Minister) of LADO.

"LADO was never Colonised, and we never signed over our Sovereignty to Foreign Sovereign Powers. Although Britain and her Allies waged wars (since 1871)


against the State of LADO with endless attempts to wipe us out and Exterminate us until they finally decided to remove LADO from the Map.

Up till now nobody has given it a thought that according to International Law LADO should automatically have been given Independence along with Egypt", stresses the King who from his refuge as a Stateless Person in Copenhagen is preparing for LADO's Declaration of Independence in 2005.

War Against Pharaos
led to the LADO Nation
During Ottoman Rule LADO was known as "Equatoria Province of Egypt" (1871), and the Land by the White Nile in the Nile-Congo Watershed Region bordered by Sudan to the north, the Central African Republic to the west, the Congo-Zaire to the south and Uganda to the east.

Tthe Sudanic People, who are the mainpopulation groups in LADO, came from the North after the 50 year war against the last Egyptian Pharoas, ending in 700 b.C. with Victory for the Sudanics who had been joined by the forces of the Kingdom of Nubia (Northern Sudan) and the Kingdom of Makuria (also Northern Sudan).

The Sudanics were led by the Nobleman Alia who was Foreman for the Miners working in the Egyptian Goldmines, and who was killed in 704 b.C.

Alia was of the Moru Tribe (Luu People). His son, Laro, a brilliant soldier, became the first Agofe (King) of LADO in 687 b.C.

Oppression led to the Crumbling
of the Egyptian Superpower
The war and the internal unrest which had been intensified by the power struggle between the Egyptian High Priests and the Pharao couple Tut-ank-Amon and


Queen Nefertite, led to the division of Egypt into three Kingdoms: Upper Egypt, Lower Egypt and Middle Egypt with the holy city of Thebes.

The lengthy war had bled the Egyptian Empire and had brought Chaos and Instability to the former glorious and invincible Superpower.

LADO Existed
Since 3000 b.C.
Following the war, which started as a Spartacus-like rebellion from 1090 b.C. to 700 b.C. when LADO became Independent from Egypt, the Sudanics left Egypt around 749 b.C. - as their predecessors the Jews had done under Moses around 11-1200 b.C.

Led by their war hero, General Laro, the Sudanics moved south and decided to settle around the foot of the Mountain which they named 'LADO'.

From this time they began to cultivate and inhabit the Virgin Land around the White Nile within theborders best known as the 'LADO Enclave' or 'Equatoria' - the land which the British arrogantly have chosen to refer to as plainly:

'The Area' in the Great Lakes Region and the Nile-Congo Watershed Region (Central Africa).

Western and European
Nations Ganging Together
However, Britain and the US now no longer stand alone with their abuse of LADO.

"They have ganged together with 22 other Western and European states who are Conspiring to let LADO disappear back into the Shadows, primarily by just referring to LADO as 'The Area in Great Lakes Region' with the sole purpose of hiding the Truth while they loot the Natural Resources of LADO by using Military Might", says King Agami.

Covert Plan to Deny LADO
Right to Exist
"In their Quest for Total Control these Nations, using fine Words and


their own Way of Life on their own Land.

As the wave of the new Religion Islam started to roll from the northern part of the African Continent around 700 A.D., the LADO People fought back the Religious Invaders from the North, and LADO acted as a Boulder which prevented Islam (Arabs) from conquering the remainder of Africa.

Together with Ethiopia and Eritrea LADO was the first country on the African Continent to welcome Christianity - a religion very close to their own Ori inspired way of life. The Catholic Fathers - in the shape of their hooded cloaks - were sent as Missionaries (Franciscan Fathers) from Austria around 1711 A.D with their Mother House in Valletta, Malta.

They were followed by the Jesuit Fathers, who were predominantly teachers, and whohelped draw up the (unwritten) LADO Constitution of 1772.

The Jesuits remained in LADO until 1867 by which time they were replaced by the still present Verona Fathers from Italy.

British Empire
Made LADO Suffer
When you consider the bitter resentment and the sulkiness that successive British Governments have treated the LADO Issue with ever since they were beaten severely in 1916 by defending LADO forces in the Battle of Erea at the foot of Mount Iti, it is interesting to reflect on the Cruel Revenge the former British Empire has made LADO suffer from since they set their Greedy Eyes on the Lush Pastures of LADO.

The victorious LADO forces were led by the present King Agami's Grandmother who was a Colonel and commanded a Regiment, and whom the British chose to


refer to as 'The Bad Woman' (Her Majesty Queen Aliojeku) who was assassinated by the British in 1927 under the British Governor-General John Maffey (former High Commissioner of North-West India, to-day Kashmir).

Perhaps it was the embarassment of being beaten by a woman, and especially a Black Woman, which made the British keep the Defeat secret from Europe - and to bury 'The Bad Woman's" baby girl (HRH Princess Driciru) alive in 1916 - and this seems to be haunting the British Government till this day.

LADO Independence was Recommended
by British Themselves
One European, who was a witness to the Battle of Erea (Mt. Iti), was a young Englishman, who was spared by 'The Bad Woman', and returned to England.

This young Englishman made a Report in which he recommended that LADObe granted Independence.

The Report was immediately stamped 'Top Secret and Classified'.

When the British wanted to Occupy the LADO Territory 'The Area' in 1947, His Excellence, Major E. Weatherhead, was the Acting Governor of British Uganda Protectorate.

Uganda was a Protectorate under the British Foreign Office until it was Transferred by British Order in Council (Uganda) in 1908 to the British Colonial Office (BCO) which is today the British Commonwealth Office with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II as the Head of the Commonwealth.

E. Weatherhead, who participated in the Lugbari (LADO) British War from 1914-1919, was now appointed Governor-General of LADO with Headquarters in the Capital of LADO, Arua.

"It is this British Occupation of LADO we have been fighting against up till today and since 1947", says King Agami (Onzima II).

Weatherhead


(nicknamed Nzerekede), who came to LADO twice, took his wife Helen and his daughter Margaret there, who kept close relations to the LADO Royal Family up to the 1970's.

The LADO Issue, and the abominable treatment of the LADO People was close to Weatherhead's heart, and during his time as Police Commissioner of South Africa he drew up a Peace Agreement between LADO and England (1919-1920).

Other British VIP's, like Governor-General, Sir Charles Gordon ('China') and Winston Churchill, also warmly supported the Independence of LADO, as did Queen Elizabeth II in 1954 when she promised LADO Independence by May 1960 - but Powerful Political and Business Interests always stood in the way and blocked the Independence of LADO.

Risky Business to Work with
British Empire
"It is risky business to have once workedwith the British Empire", says King Agami who is the 40th generation of the direct Royal Line which goes back as far as approx. 700 A.D.

During World War II, my Father, King Atobua (who was assassinated on 14 April 1948 by the British Colonial Agents on British Orders) commanded KAR Regiments under Admiral Lord Louis Francis Mountbatten in Burma.

The known history of LADO can therefore be traced back to its early beginnings in year 3000 b.C. which contradicts the Great Lie being promoted by the West that LADO did not and does not Exist.

After all we can trace the Historical Roots of our Homeland back longer than most nations in the World.

The LADO People are still very much alive holding up our Culture and Traditions within our Borders."

LADO


Noblemen
Joined the Crusaders
as 'Knights of St. John'
"When His Holiness, Pope Urbano II, called for the First Crusade in 1095 A.D., some LADO Noblemen joined with the Knights Templars (St. John's Knights) in Malta to fight in the First Crusade.

"The route went through Malta where the Crusaders were enrolled into the prestigious 'Knights of St. John', and at that time my ebony black forefathers fought on equal terms as Knights of St. John and under the banner of the Maltese Cross", says King Agami.

New Wars are Waged in Former
Ottoman Territories
"Today's wars, or 'Military Operations', waged as 'Pre-emptive Strikes to install Democracy' under the banners of 'War on Terror' and real or imaginary WMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction), are being carried out in the Territories under former Ottoman Dominion, whichincludes LADO where the Anglo-American Alliance extends its Military Bases making way for their Business Corporations to take Control of the Natural Resources of the Territories where their Military yields Control through base Force", says King Agami.

When the Greeks dominated the Waves and the Deserts through Alexander the Great, and Hannibal passed the impene-trable mountains with his elephants, the Events of History and the Courage of the People stopped them.

Injustice Against
the People of LADO
Today the quest for Mineral Resources and other Natural Resources of LADO is being fought amongst 45 Foreign Companies from almost as many Nations (led by the Anglo and Western Europe) who have directly or indirectly been re-sponsible for the Suffering and the Massacres of Lado People by their Billion Dollar Financing of Military Movements


and War Lords from the Countries surrounding the Territory of LADO, for the purpose of chasing away the People of LADO from their Homes and Land. This is done in an effort to create an Empty Territory in LADO for Foreign Settlement.

One outstanding major Player in this Unjust and Inhuman Action against LADO is the Sudanese Peoples Liberation Move-ment (SPLM) led by Colonel John Garang, a Dinka by Tribe from South Sudan (Upper Nile Region, Bahr-el-Ghazel Region and the Lake District Region). The SPLM got and gets a full Support from Britain-USA through the Governments of Uganda and of Kenya. That is one of the Reasons why the President of Uganda is described as the "Darling of the West".

"I hope the recent Agreement in 2003, between the SPLMby Britain and the USA to Colonise the State of LADO so that the State of Lado is killed and removed as a Political Entity in Central Africa. And then the Territory of LADO is to be shared among Uganda, Rwanda, and Sudan on behalf of Britain and their Allies who are very much against the Existence of the State of LADO as a Political Entity in Central Africa. God or the Devil may know why the Anglo-Saxon World does not want to see LADO as a Political En-tity", says King Agami.

"For the last fifty-seven (57) years the People of LADO have been living as Refugees, Displaced Persons on their own Land and as Stateless Persons. They have been killed with impunity by some Governments of the Neighbouring/Surrounding


treatment of LADO by and in the UN System. It looks as though the UN is meant to recolonise the Black African People to deny them their Sovereign Right because they are Black African People. We, the People of LADO see it as this. Racism and Discrimination by the UN and the International System which is controlled by Great European Powers/Countries", sadly comments King Agami.

Time to Speak Out
to Save LADO
"This Holocaust in the Heart of Africa has been allowed to happen under the noses of the UN, the Red Cross and all the other Humanitarian Organisations operating in Central Africa who dare not speak out on LADO because the Anglo-American Alliance and their Europea Allies comes down hard on anyone who speaks of the true cause of warand Article 73 of the UN Charter of 26 June 1945.In case of legal complications and Difficulties on the question (Decolonisation) of LADO, the UN General Assembly can refer the matter of LADO to the International Court of Justice for the Advisory Opinions.This will eventually result in the Formal Recognition of the State of LADO as an Independent, Sovereign Nation State (LADO) in Central Africa which will restore LADO to its former Historical Status as a Sovereign Nation State (LADO).

The Western Governments Close Their Eyes to Genocide in Lado Committed by Britain's Secret Colony Uganda...
The world has looked on in silence while four million Lado People have been killed through the past ten years. Noone has tried to stop the slaughter and the war crimes committed


against the Lado People

By Britt Bartenbach
and Ole Hans Jensen
Editors and Writers

Through more than fifty years the two countries Britain and the US have used their position in the UN Security Council to block the issue on independence for the Central African state Lado where a so far silent, and now very obvious, Genocide is being played out.

For a number of years the Danish Government has acted as a Pinnochio for Britain and the US in relation to the question on the independence of Lado.

Denmark has Acted
as a Go-Between
On behalf of England, and paid by this country, Denmark has been acting as a "Go-Between" or rather carried out their colonial functions as a kind of "Governor-General" or even "Viceroy" in Uganda whose army has been used to oppress andterrorise the population in the neighbouring Lado - a country which is the size of Sweden and which once consisted of approx. fourteen million inhabitants of which four million are now killed.

Lado is Constantly being Attacked by UgandaTime and again through the years Lado has been attacked by the armies of among others Uganda, Kenya and Rwanda - forces which are mixed with foreign mercenaries supplied by the British company Executive Outcomes with offices in London and Johannesburg, South Africa.

All this is financed though a fine meshed network by Britain, the US and the transnational corporations who are ready to step in and usurp the enormous unexplored natural resources of Lado, such as oil, gold, diamonds and uranium.

Lado has Struggled for
Independence for 50 Years
Lado, who has struggled to


regain its independence for more than fifty years, is located at the socalled "White Nile" in the Nile-Congo Watershed Region and shares borders with the Central African Republic, Kenya, DR Congo, Sudan, Ethiopia and Uganda.

Lado Royal Family
Under UN Protection in Denmark
Lado is governed by the Lado Provisional Government, which is headed by the Agofe and King of Lado, Dr. John Bart Agami who lives in refuge with his family in Denmark under the protection of the UN. The western governments have been well-informed about the continuing Genocide against the Lado People who are in danger of extinction, and they know full well who is responsible for the killings and the fighting in Lado - massacres which are mainly being carried out by the Ugandan army and by well-compensated"Rebel Movements" sponsored by Britain and the US plus the companies who have vested interests in gaining entry and exploiting the ressources in the Lado area.

A common trait of these sponsored "Rebel Leaders", who are laughing all the way to their Swiss banks, is their flair for the good life which is spent in million dollar luxury villas and by the swimming pools far away from the unpleasantries on the battlefields.

Denmark has Stationed
300 Civil Servants in Uganda
In the name of foreign aid and development in third world countries, which goes down well with the Danish population who have a tradition of contributing a large part of the nation's Gross National Product to poverty stricken countries, the small Scandinavian country Denmark has stationed approx. three hundred civil servants as


well as military experts in Uganda. These officials control the Ugandan administrative system and actively participate in the training of the country's security services (among these the much feared Ugandan secret police).

Denmark Gets Her
Share of the Cake
In reality Uganda is run as a "Colony" of Denmark and Britain, and alas the one party state Uganda under the rule of the Dictator, President Yoweri Museweni, is the "African Pearl" of the British Commonwealth - a country which the charitable Denmark has pumped the vast majority of its foreign aid into - and now Denmark (and the Danish companies) expect to get their share of the cake or the spoils when the profitable resources in the neighbouring Lado are within easy reach, i.e. when the Lado People have been clearedout of the way.

For more than thirty years King John Bart Agami has worn out the soles on his shoes when he has been knocking on the doors of all the countries in the world in his untiring struggle to try to awaken the world - and primarily the socalled civilised Scandinavian countries who are always shouting about human rights and who like to get attention in the world press as states that clamp down on suspected war criminals.

Noone has Lifted a Finger
to Help Lado
But noone, not even the Scandinavian countries, has lifted a finger to try and stop the killing of the Lado People, and king John Bart Agami has only been given empty promises or a cold shoulder whenever he has contacted these countries to inform


them of the desperate state of affairs in Lado.

Not Ethnic Conflicts
but a Fight for Freedom
The governments and the world press have been busy in making a perfect cover-up for the atrocities being committed against the Lado People on their own soil by calling the killings in Lado "Ethnic Conflicts" in north-eastern Congo.

This is all happening in the Ituri Province in Lado where the main cities Turit and Bunia are situated and where the Lendu population (i.e. the Lado People) heroically are giving their lives in order to hold their cities and their homes and lately have tried to muster some kind of defence against the modern and well-equipped Ugandan army and its heavily armed militia groups.

Order of the Day are
Bombs and Shellings
The order of the day here isnightly bomb raids of cities and villages, shellings, and machine guns against unarmed men, women and children - and the slaughter of the Lado National Defence Forces who in the very best of cases have to make do with old worn-out Kalashnikov rifles, but for the most part will have to contend with whatever may be at hand as a defence weapon, which is often just spears and bows and arrows.

The Genocide in Lado
is an "Endlösung"
The Genocide, which appears to be that "Endlösung" for Lado and its people which has been on the agenda for a long time, is presented in the press around the world as "Ethnic Conflicts" between two ethnic groups - and worst of all in the Danish media where it is shocking to read


that the situation is blamed on the Lado People, i.e. the Lendu population, who are supposed to have committed genocide and ethnic cleansing against the poor militant Hemas from Uganda, read the Tutsies, who accompany and mix with the well equipped Ugandan when they invade Lado, and following their killing sprees take over the Lado cities.

Relief Agencies
Also Misinform
This presentation of the Lado tragedy is also given in press releases from the relief agencies who are even present in the area, and who, by the way, also get much of their benevolence from the western countries who stand to gain from the control of Lado.

No doubt these agencies are under heavy pressure to keep the lid on the truth by government censorship for the situation is the exact opposite- as it is the Lado People who are being the victims of Genocide and Ethnic Cleansing by the hands of Ugandan troops and others who are being sent across the border with the intent to create muddy waters and so much havoc and terror that Lado will not succeed in gaining the independence which has otherwise been in the process through the UN.

Queen Elizabeth II
Promised Independence in 1960
Lado was to have had this independence already in 1960 in accordance with a promise made by Britain's Queen Elizabeth II in 1954 to King John Bart Agami.

However, successive British governments - including the present Tony Blair government - have ensured that this promise was fulfilled in spite of the fact that Britain by no means legally can claim any


rights to Lado or Lado's natural ressources.

Lado a Thorn
in the Flesh of Britain
It has been a constant thorn in the flesh of the British governments that they have never succeeded in threatening or bribing Lado and the King of Lado to hand over Lado's sovereignty to the British Crown - but the fact that Lado also has refused to enroll as a member of the British Commonwealth has caused the old colonial power to use even harsher methods against Lado and Lado's hard tested population.

Lado Royal Family
on the Hit List
The Lado Royal Family has been on the hit list for decades which has resulted in a few assassinations, and among these one of the most gruesome was when a British penal expedition buried the present king's baby auntalive which was done to punish the royal family for its "lack of cooperation" and for its resistance to the British occupation.

Lado has Historic
and Legal Right
to their Homeland
Historically and legally Lado has the sovereign rights to its own state in the territory which is otherwise described as the "Lado Enclave" or "Equatoria" - though a little more than fifty years ago the name "Lado", one of the world's oldest kingdoms, could be found on every world atlas.

Lado Issue is still
blocked in UN Security Council
It is not difficult to guess why the Lado issue is still being blocked in the UN Security Council by the permanent members Britain and the US who do not want to risk the issue to go to the vote in the UN General Assembly


for charity - just for the privilege and the basic human right to live in freedom and peace in their own homeland, in their own sovereign state.

When will the world leaders and the powers of the West act to secure the lives and the land of Lado - will ethics an human values win over profit and greed - or do they think they can hide like the ostrich in the sand and peep out again when the Lado People have been sacrificed on the alter of the Golden Calf, and do they believe then that they will not have blood on their hands and that they have not become an assessory to Genocide...

Time for Britain to Implement UN Resolution 1514
of 14 December 1960 for Independenceof LADO...

From: King John Bart Agami

By Press Officer Britt Bartenbach

Around the World focus is intensifying with a magnifying glass on hitherto hidden or covered up Political Injustice against African Peoples and Countries.

The French have been through a painstaking ordeal in coming to terms with the Political Injustice in Algeria during the Algerian War of Independence and, in all fairness, are trying to make amends.

British Imperial
Policy Dies Hard
Britain wants to continue the British Imperial (Colonial) Policy through the Machinery of the Commonwealth which is a Body composed of former British Colonies, Protectorates and Dominions with legal Colonial special Links to British Sovereignty.

However, the British are finally directing attention to their own sinister behaviour during Colonial Rule in Africa, which lacks nothing in brutality and horror.

LADO Renamed
by Ottoman Empire
One such


state was LADO (the LADO Enclave) bordered by Sudan, Congo-Zaire, CAR, Uganda, Kenya and Ethiopia, which was renamed Equatoria on 20 May 1871 by the Ottoman Empire (Turkey).

The actual Occupation of LADO, however, took place on 26 May 1871.

The first Governor-General of LADO was Colonel Sir Samuel White Baker (a British National/Subject) who was thereby promoted to the Rank of Major General in the Turkish Army and then appointed by the Ottoman Empire to the Governor-General of LADO.

LADO Nation and
People Still Intact
It should still be known to a few that LADO has remained intact as a Nation and a People inside the old borders in spite of the joint Occupation by Britain and Belgium since 1947.

Legally, though, it was still the Ottoman Empire who was responsible for theOccupation of LADO even after the break-up of the Ottoman Empire, which became the Republic of Turkey by the Lausanne Agreement of 24 July 1923.

LADO withstood
Foreign Occupation
LADO is an example to other Nations and Indigenous Peoples who have suffered the fate of oblivion from the hands of Oppressors through the History of Man because LADO has managed to withstand the yoke of Foreign Occupation for centuries and is still managing this today - in spite of continued violent attempts from Insurgents, consisting of troops from Uganda, Kenya and Rwanda, to gain LADO Territory with all means, especially in the western part of LADO which on the map appears as "Eastern Congo".

US and Europe turn a Blind Eye
to Genocide in LADO
"Genocide is usually heavily condemned by the very same


countries and their leaders whenever it suits their own interests", says the Agofe and King of LADO, Dr. John Bart Agami, from his exile in Copenhagen where he, as the Head of State (while the Prime Minister of LADO is the Head of the Provisional Government), continues his untiring struggle to free LADO and achieve International Recognition for LADO as the Sovereign Nation State which it Rightly and Legally is.

"When it comes to Genocide and Ethnic Cleansing Operations outside Europe and the US, it is easier to close one's eyes and pretrend you don't know until the Catastrophy has happened, and it is too late, as was the case with Rwanda where the UN could have intervened but ordered/decided to turn a Blind Eye and let the Atrocitiesof the UN Security Council, has always tried to Bulldoze the small Belgium into follow-ing the British Colonial Policy over LADO.

US Backingfor
British Colonial Policy
Britain, however, with the loyal backing of the US, is still clinging steadfastly to their hold on LADO, a hold which is administered with an army of Bureaucrats and Military Advisors from Britain and Denmark through neighbouring Uganda and Kenya, (African countries) which are both members of the British Commonwealth.

Independence of LADO
Promised 9 May 1960
LADO, which was promised Independence and Sovereignty in 1960 by Queen Elizabeth II at a meeting on 30 April 1954, has been frozen out as the King has refused to let LADO enrol in the British Commonwealth.

Instead he demands full Independence of LADO and full Sovereignty of LADO, a promise which


various British Governments since then have flatly denied to fulfil.

Light at the End
of the Tunnel
For decades there seemed to be no light at the end of the tunnel on the road toward Freedom and International Recognition of the State of LADO (Africa).

However, in the past year the King's diplomatic endeavours have found sympathetic ears within the Diplomatic Circles, in Foreign Parliaments and in Educational Institutions.

British Colonial
'Pride and Prejudice'
Other countries are now coming to the aid of LADO and are finally beginning to rally together to support LADO's plea to be recognised as a National and Political Entitiy as an Independent Sovereign Nation State - though the British still refuse to let go of Her Imperial Colonial Pride and Prejudice in a Bizarre Remnant of the modern variety ofnon Europeans, People of LADO, who are Africans, also deserve and demand Political Justice and People's Rights", concludes the Agofe and King of LADO, Dr. John Bart Agami.

Old Crimes never Die, and Yesterday's Hero is Today's War Criminal:
Lado Petition to UN:
No Peace without Justice

By Press Officer
Britt Bartenbach

Our World cries out for Justice like never before in the History of Man, and the Masses are pressing on for their Leaders to correct the Wrongdoings committed by States, Regimes, and Satanic Leaders of the Past and Present.

Many are those who, had they been alive today, would be facing charges for Crimes against Humanity, Genocide, and Ethnic Cleansing.

Every Country and each Continent have their War Criminals (W.C.'s).

Some come from within the ranks of their own Countrymen, others can be


found within the Foreign Occupation Forces.

Africa the Continent
of Suffering
Just so with Africa, the Continent that probably would come in on the first place as concerns Suffering in the W.C. Competition.

Lado, the Enclave in Central Africa situated in the Nile-Congo Wathershed Region, which the Ottoman Empire renamed "Equatoria" on 20 May 1871, although the Governor- General of Lado (Equatoria) was a British National (Citizen), Colonel Sir Samuel Baker, promoted to the Rank of Major-General by the Ottoman Empire, in the vain hope that the World would forget that Lado ever existed, and that the Lado People themselves would eventually forget about their true Heritage.

Lado has Suffered her fair share in the hands of Great Britain (W.C.'s).

British Reign
of Terror in Lado
The absolute Top Scorer in Lado so far was theBritish Governor-General from 1926-1934, Sir John Maffey, whose name still today cannot be spoken in Lado without invoking Shivers and deep Emotions.

"During Maffey's Reign of Terror almost every Family in Lado suffered Losses of Dear Ones", says the Agofe and King of Lado (Onzima II), Dr. John Bart Agami, who speaks from his Exile in Denmark as the Chief of the State of Lado.

The Lado Provisional Government is Headed by the Keego (Prime Minister) Amba Basil Z. Olima.

Specific Task to Eliminate the Chiefs
and Entire Royal Family of Lado
"Sir Maffey was brought in by the British with the Specific Task to Eliminate all Chiefs and the Entire Royal Family of Lado.

He followed through on the Oxford Commission Recom-mendation of 1910 which had concluded that 'Lado must Cease to Exist'.

My


own Grandmother, HRM Aliojeku, was one of Maffey's Victims.

She was named by the Brit-ish Colonial Government as 'Enemy Number One'. She was killed by a Colonial Assassin in Lado in 1927."

Baby Princess
Buried Alive
"Prior to her own Death my Grandmother suffered the worst that can happen to any Mother.

Her Baby Daughter, and my Aunt, Princess Driciru was only Six Months old when she was killed by the British Army during the Lugbari (Lado-British) War of 1914-1919. She was buried alive in 1916 by the British Army.

The British were enraged that they had not succeeded in Subduing the Lado People, or had not managed to Force the Royal Family to hand over the Sovereignty of Lado and let Lado be Annexed into the British Commonwealth Empire under the Superiority ofthe British Crown (King/Queen)."

Lado Queen Aliojeku
Defeated British Army
HRM Aliojeku, was the Leading Figure in the Defense of Lado, and she completely Defeated the British Army in Erea, Lado, at the foot of Mt. Iti.

'The Battle of Erea', as it was called, was a Devastating Blow to the British whose entire Regiment was totally Wiped Out by Aliojeku's forces, and the British have up till today neither Forgotten nor Forgiven the Humiliation of their otherwise Invincible Imperial British Army.

Lado Queen named
Enemy Number One
"My Grandmother was a Fierce Opponent to the British Occupation Forces, so they decided that she had to be Eliminated", says the Agofe.

"In fact the British issued a Decree to Eliminate the Entire Royal Family of Lado believing that with our Annihilation also Lado and the Lado


People would cease to Exist."

Governor-General Brought to WipeOut
Lado Royal Family and Chiefs
They adopted the same Philosophy as that of the Bolsheviks after the Russian Revolution, when they Eliminated the Russian Czar Family, the Romanoffs, believing that would extinguish the Desire of the Czar Loyalists to fight the new Communist Regime.

The High Commissioner of North-West India, Sir John Maffey, was appointed Governor-General of Sudan and Lado, and was brought to Lado to carry out that very same Job to Wipe out the Lado Royal Family, the Lado Chiefs, and the Lado Leaders and their Families."

No Resistance to British Rule was Tolerated With this Philosophy in mind the British would not

Tolerate any Resistance and were Desperate to Rule Unchallenged.

Up till now the British have acted with Intent to Wipe outall Trace of Lado Royalty from the Face of the Earth since it is a Fact that as long as the Lado Royal House is Intact, there is still Hope for the Return of an Independent and Sovereign State of Lado.

Killings Continued
Through Decades
The Hunt for Lado's Royal Heads has continued through the Decades starting with the Assassination of the Agofe's Great Grandfather, HM Ayingani, who was killed on 7 March 1887.

In the following Generation the Agofe's Grandfather, HM Lemiro's Reign culminated with his Assasination in 1940, and only eight years later in 1948 his Successor, the Agofe's Father, HM Anacleto Atobua, was shot dead to prevent him from presenting the Lado Issue at the UN General Assembly Meeting in New York, USA.

Brother and
Daughter Killed
The Agofe's Brother, HRH Prince


Thomas Candia, was killed in 1979. And on 4 October 1994 the Agofe's 30 year old Daughter, HRH Princess Driciru, who was a Military Officer (Captain), was killed.

She had been given the Choice to Spy on her own Father, the Agofe (King), or be killed.

Numerous Attempts have been made on the Agofe, King John Bart Agami's Life and those of his Closest Relatives.

"Just recently I was informed by a Diplomat, who advised me that I might as well start to write my Epitath (Tombstone Inscriptions)", says the Agofe.

Shrill Tone after Lado Petition to
United Nations
The British tone has changed from sharp to shrill since the Agofe and the Lado Pro-visional Government sent their Petition for Independence to the UN Security Council's Permanent Members on 1 January 2002.

This direct Approachnot to arouse the Discontent of the Powerful Oil and Mining Lobby and their Affiliated Companies in the Weaponry and Pharmaceutical Industry.

The Weapons Vendors have vested enormous Interests in establishing an African Echelon in Lado which is the Perfect Spot to place the Gigantic Mushrooms and Listening Devices of the Foreign Powers (NSA, National Security Authority).

Echelon will
Control Africa
With such Installations in the mountainous Lado, the NSA, who Operate the 'Echelon System' in close Cooperation with the Countries in the Anglo-Saxon Axis of the British Commonwealth, will have the Optimal Opportunity to listen in on every Phone Conversation and to read each and every E-mail and Telefax being Communicated in the African Continent and Beyond.

Control of the African Resources
The New World's Obsession with Control of the African Resources


behalf of the Business Vendors to drive the Civilians away from their Homes to make way for the Bulldozers of the Developers, the Oil Rigs and the Gold Mines.

Rebels and Foreign Troops
Gang Up on Lado
The Rebel Forces and the Kenyan and Ugandan Troops operating in Lado carry out the same Massacres and Atrocities that the Colonial Troops of Governor-General Sir John Maffey.

"Sir John Maffey had been the Pet Governor-General of the British Empire after his Success in Quelling the Resistance in North-West India (today Pakistan)", says the King, Dr. John Bart Agami.

Divide and Rule
Perfected in Colonies
"Through the 'Divide and Rule' Policy Governor-General Sir Maffey had kept the fighting going between the Hindu and the Muslim Populations, which finally ended with the formation of the State of Pakistan in1947, which was later split into two States with the Birth of Bangladesh in 1972.

But in reality, the fighting never stopped since Kashmir had not been included in the Pakistani State in spite of the fact that the Overwhelming Majority of the Population was and still is Muslim (80%) and belonging to the Pashtun Tribe.

It was no Coincidence that Kashmir was left as an Indian Province with a certain amount of Autonomy under the Watchful Eye of the Indian Military presence.

This presence had been built up massively since 1947 and so has been the Forced Transfer of hundreds of Hindu families who are now Settled in Kashmir and Jamu.

Kashmir may be
Asian Echelon Center
This was all part of a British Plan to Utilise the vast Energy Resources (Oil) in


- whether it be Men, Women or Children in the West, in the Balcans, in Russia or Chechnya, in the Americas, in Asia or in Africa including Lado.

War Criminals
must Face Justice
Political Leaders or Commanders, who have Committed or Ordered Crimes against Humanity, are rounded up and brought to Justice - that is if they are not Members of the G7 Club, the WTO, the EU, or the Bilderberg Group who hold the real Power of the World and so far have been Beyond Reproach.

A New Age has Emerged with the Attempts to Prosecute Dictators and Lea-ders such as the former US backed General Pinochet of Chile and President Milosovic of Yugoslavia who had refused to Play Ball with the Rich and the Powerful of the West.

However, such Offendersas former US Secretary of State and Presidential Advisor Henry Kissinger and the present Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, plus others, may still be allowed to roam about until the Next Generation makes them face their Victims.

Justice not Reserved Only
for the Rich and the Mighty
"Governor-General Sir John Maffey still today is a Bright Star within the Ranks of the Pro-Colonialists of the British Empire.

But had he lived today, he would have been sitting in the Dock of a War Crimes Tribunal to face Charges for his Deeds in North-West India and in Lado where his Version of 'Maffey's Law' left a Generation of Innocent Killed and Maimed", concludes the King, dr. John Bart Agami.

"Justice cannot only be reserved for the Rich and the Mighty.

The Weak and the Poor


is only one way to End and Prevent Injustice and Atrocities like those still being Committed against the Lado People, and that is to end the Unlawful Occupation of Lado and to Implement the UN Resolutions 1514, 43/47 and UN Charter Art. 1 and 73 that give Lado the Right to Sovereignty and Independence.

Lado must be an Independent and Sovereign Nation State in Africa and in the World."

Lado - Africa's Middle East:
The Quiet Holocaust of Lado...

By Press Officer
Britt Bartenbach

The Voices of the People of the Middle East have been Crying out for fifty-four years. They have been heard, listened to, but let down - time after time.

Until now, when the Cries of the Men, Women and Children from the Rubbles of the bombed and bulldozed Palestineanother Peoples who have long struggled for their Independence as a Sovereign State.

The Cries of Lado
are not Heard
In the Heart of Africa, however, the Cries of the People of Lado (better known by the Colonial name "Equatoria") have not been heard since the Europeans (Britain and Belgium) jointly took over the Occupation of the old Kingdom from the Turks/Egyptians (Ottoman Empire).

It happens that heartbreaking stories seep out of the Plight of the People and the Refugees of Southern Sudan, Eastern Congo or North-Western Uganda.

Lado Voices
have been Strangled
But these are the People of Northern, Southern and Eastern Lado, an Indigenous People who can date their Ancestral Homeland back to the old Pharaos in the Nubian Kingdom based around the Arteries of the Upper Nile Valley and the Nile-Congo Watershed


Region.

The Lado Voices have been strangled by successive Occupiers, Slave Traders and Unscrupulous Corporations who have seen their Advantage in Finansing various Rebel Movements to wage Bloody Wars on the Lado Soil.

UN Resolutions give
Right to Independence
and Sovereignty
As with the Palestineans and the East Timorese, numerous UN Resolutions give the Lado People the Right to determine their own Fate and the Right to Full Independence and Sovereignty.

But the Reality is another. The old Colonial Master, Britain, with her faithful Backing Group the US, still refuses to let go, though today the old Empire's Reign has been transferred, at least on the Surface, to the Commonwealth Sattellites Uganda, Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi and South Africa from where the Arms and the Mercenaries are supplied.

Refugee Camps
are run like KZ-Camps
The Holocaust of thePeople of Lado is a quiet one.

It takes place in the Clearings of the Jungle, in the Valleys between the Mountains and in the Refugee Camps which are operated like Internment or rather Extermination Camps.

Noone outside the Lado Mountainsides hears the Cries of the Lado People who have been chased from their Burning Villages and their Bombed out Cities.

Or have had their Children Kidnapped by one of the Rivalling Rebel Movements who have been on one of their Raiding Sprees to Recruit a Fresh Batch of Child Soldiers to their Renegade Armies.

Lado People are
finding the Will
and the Courage
Though the name "Lado" is still a Forbidden Word in "Equatoria", and on the African Continent as a whole, there is now the Prospect of a Glimmer of Hope.

The Lado People


have begun to find the Will and the Courage to stand up for themselves and be heard as a People.

Recently the Lado National Defence Force, who are Defending the Civilians and the Resources, including the Environment, has been Striken from the List of Rebel Movements active in the Area.

First Step on the
Road to Independence
"I see this as a First Step on the Road to Independence and the Right of Lado to be Recognised as a Sovereign National Entity along with other States in the World", says the Agofe (king) of Lado, Dr. John Bart Agami (Onzima II), who speaks from this Refuge in Copenhagen on behalf of the Lado Provisional Government.

He is also speaking on behalf of the three million Displaced and Stateless People who have been Forcedinto Exile from their Lado Homeland and have been Forced to Raise their Children far from the Home of their Ancestors.

Spirit of Defiance
is Growing
But more importantly, the Agofe is Voicing the Hopes and the Dreams of the Remaining Seven million Lado People, who cannot, may not and dare not let their Voices be Heard - Trapped and Encircled as they are by Government (Commonwealth) Troops, Rebel Armies and Greedy Profiteers.

Inside the Lado Lands, though a Spirit of Defiance is growing.

Will to Freedom
is being Born
Silently, within each and every Man, Woman and Child the Will to Freedom is being Born, and the Will to shed themselves of the Chains of Foreign Oppression is Venturing forward.

"Now is the Moment for the Lado People, and for our Fellow Africans on this


it is high time that the Lado People break away from their Fears and Realise the Potential they have as Individuals, as a People and as a National entity with a Rich and Powerful Cultural Heritage and a History as one of the Oldest Kingdoms of the World. For instance Lado can record its History as a National Entity back to 9 May 847 a.d.

10,000 Killed
in a Single Day
The Voices of the more than two million Lado Civilians who have been Slaughtered during the last ten years and the ten thousand - Defence Forces and Civilians - who Died in one Bloody Battle in a Single Day in the beginning of 2002 have not been Echoed anywhere outside the Mountainous and Fertile Lands of Lado.

But the River Nilehas told its own Bloody Tale of the Quiet Holocaust of Lado.

"It is War being waged on a Defenceless People, and my People have not even been given the Right to Speak of their Sufferings or to name their Homeland", the Agofe concludes.

State Terror
against Lado People
Few Peoples around the World have been as Patient as the Lado People who have Refrained from Resorting to such Extremes as the use of Terror despite their Desperate Situation and the State Terror they are constantly being subjected to from Neighbouring States.

Lado Run According
to Five Year Action Plan
Their Quest for Freedom and the Right to Determine their own Affairs have been unrelentless through Necessity and for the sheer sake of Survival - though for the past Decades it has been Fought in


Silence.

Apart from the "invisible" Occupation and the Constant Massacres on the Lado Civilian Community by Neighbouring Government Troops and their "Rebel" Terrorists Groups, the Lado Society is run according to the "Five Year Action Plan" laid down by the Lado Provisional Government, and which - Occupation or not - is Operating as if Lado were a Free and Independent State.

UN Security Council
must Implement
UN Resolution
Now all that remains is for the International Community, i.e. the United Nations and the Security Council, to Implement UN Resolution 1514 (XV) of 14 December 1960, Un Resolution 43/47 of 22 November 1988 and Articles 1 and 73 of the UN Charter of 26 June 1945 and Officially Recognise Lado as an Independent and Sovereign State with the Right to Govern their own Affairswithin their National Boundaries.

When Will the
Lado Voices be Heard
But how long will they have to wait until the Rulers of the World Hear them and listens with their Hearts and Ears to their Cries for Freedom and Justice?

And how many will have to Die and Succumb in their uneven Battle in the Quiet Holocaust of Lado inside the Heart of Africa... ¨

Lado - the Country in the Nile-Congo
Wathershed Region

Right in the Core of the Heart of Africa is the State of Lado located the Nile-Congo Watershed Region surrounded by the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Republic of Uganda and the Republic of Sudan. It is here that over three Million People over the past Thirty Years have been Killed as a Part of Colonial Oppression and


Corporate Interests. And it is here that the Lado People are Determined to Fight for the Independence and Sovereignty of Lado.

By Press Officer
Britt Bartenbach

The mountainous and beautiful Lado houses a large part of the World's unique Animal Species, and the magnificent unspoilt Nature.
The Ottoman Empire used to refer to Lado as "Equatoria". And the British simply refer to Lado as: "The Area".

The British never
Colonised Lado
The old British Empire does not easily let go of her Possessions - or at least of the Dream to Control, Own, Excavate and Sell the Contents of the Country's Underground.

The Paradox is that the British have never Colonised Lado. Nor the Belgians who with the British jointly occupied the State of Lado since 1947.

The Colonial
Powers
The old Trick which the Colonial Powers had usedto get the Kings in the various African Kingdoms to put their Signature on a Blank piece of Paper - using either Bribery or the Barrel of a Gun - had not worked with the Royal House of Lado.

The Defence
of Lado
The King of the time, 1870, King Ayingani Ajua, Great Grandfather of the present King (Onzima II), the Agofe John Bart Agami, refused to sign over the Country and the Sovereign Power to the Colonial Occupation Forces.

Then followed Decades
of Heroic Battles.
And one led by the present King's fearless Grandmother, Queen Aliojeku, who refused to hand over the Freedom and Sovereignty of Lado to the European Oppressors.

The British Empire
showed no Mercy to Lado
It was a bad enough Blow to the British that an African Country put up such a


Fierce Fight in the Defense of their Country - Lado.

But to wake up to the fact that the well-equipped Imperial British Army had been Beaten by a Woman - and a Black Woman at that - was too Humiliating.

The British Empire showed no Mercy in the Subjucation of Lado.The People of Lado, whose Cultural Heritage was much older than the British, had to be Broken by any Means. And to this End the British do not shy away from any Atrocities.

The Lado Royal
House has Survived
The present King of Lado, King John Bart Agami, who leads the Lado Provisional Government from his Refuge in Denmark, has never lost his Family's Memory of his Aunt, Princess Driciru, who as a Baby was Buried Alive by the British Troops in aPunitive Operation in 1916.

Or the Memory of his Father, King Atobua, who in 1948 the day before his travel to the United Nations General Assembly in New York, where the Question of Lado's Independence and Sovereignty was to be discussed, was Murdered by one of His Majesty's Imperial Agents in front of his home in Omugo.

Royal Family forced
to live in Exile
The Killing of the Agofe (King) delayed the Lado Issue from the UN Agenda, and from then on an intense fox hunt was launched on Lado's Royal Family Members leading to the Assassination of the King's Brother, Prince Thomas, in 1979, which meant that the remaining Family Members live in Danger every Day.

Britain and Belgium
Occupied Lado since 1947
The Occupation of Lado only served to Unite the Lado People


even more - and in spite of the hardhitting Means taken to prevent the People from holding on to their Mother Tongue and their Cultural Heritage, the Daily Affairs in Lado was lived and run unperceived and as if Lado was not under Foreign Yoke.

Neighbouring
Regimes
Peace in Lado is not some-thing that could be hoped for - for even though the Colonial Powers had been Defeated, they could Direct the Military Forces of the Neighbouring Regimes to Ravage and Terrorise the Civilian Population of the State of Lado.

The Five Year Action Plan of the Provisional Government is gaining Momentum in Lado.

The Lado Infrastructure and Administrative System includes in all it farsightedness Respect and Consideration for all Parts and Levels of Society and the Lado Tribes and Religions.

Lado National
Guard
"The LadoNational Guard has been established as a simple Necessity to Protect the Lado Population and Lado Property", says King Agami.

Bribery and
Threats
It has been a Bitter Pill to swallow for the British that the King of Lado, King John Bart Agami, could not be Bribed or Threatened to hand over Lado's Sovereignty to the Occupation Forces.

Nor was it possible to persuade the King in 1962 - not even under Torture and the Threat of Execution - to incorporate Lado as one of the "Grateful" States in the British Commonwealth.

As these Methods proved ineffective, the British used another Weapon. They pretended that Lado and the Lado People did not Exist.

Holocaust
in Lado
The Hierarchy of the British Empire was not pleased with the fact that Lado's King had started to be Visible


again when in 1965 he commenced his tedious work knocking on the doors of the Shiny Offices of the Diplomatic Corps trying to make their Governments realise the Need to put an end to the Bloodshed and the endless Massacres of the People in Lado.

"Ethnic Cleansing, or rather Genocide, it is called if it happens elsewhere", says King John Bart Agami.

Conspiracy
against Lado
"No Country showed the Slightest Remorse about the over Three Million People of Lado who have been killed through the past thirty years.

"There has been a Plan, a "Gentleman Agreement", that Lado was not to be mentioned, and that the State of Lado was to be both Killed and Buried", says the King.

"That explains why the Governments and the Corporations have succeeded in hiding the Truth aboutthe State of Lado for the General Public."

Peaceful and Relentless Struggle for
Lado Independence
"I cannot believe that the People of the various Countries in the Rest of the World would have to look on from the Side Line without raising their Voices in Protest of the Holocaust which has been - and still is - subjected upon the Lado People", concludes King John Bart Agami from his temporary Refuge in Denmark from where he is continuing his Peaceful and Relentless Struggle for an Independent and Sovereign Lado (Africa).

Lado Action Plan
2001-2005
But one thing is certain: Lado is making a Come-Back - not only on the Map but in the Minds and Hearts of the World - before anyone would have thought it possible through the Lado Action Plan 2001-2005.

Whether or


not the World's Decision Makers are meaning Business, Lado and the Lado People are Determined to Fight for their Rights as a Sovereign and Independent State of Lado that has its place in the Modern World whilst nurturing their Roots in Lado's Age-old Cultural Heritage in Africa.

Lado Provisional Government Drafts
Five Year Action Plan...

By Press Officer Britt Bartenbach

"With or without the Consent of the UN and the Anglo-American Powers, we will go ahead with the Implementation of our Five Year Action Plan for Lado as an Independent and Sovereign State."

These are the words spoken by the Agofe of Lado, King John Bart Agami, Onzima II, who has now finalized the Preparatory Diplomacy for the final Recognition of the Independence of Lado.

No more time
to be wasted
Speaking from hisrefuge in Copenhagen, Denmark, the King voices the feeling of disappointment that his People experience:

"The Indifference of the Western Powers to the plight of the Lado People is a sad Fact.

None the less it has made the Lado Provisional Government realise that we can waste no more time knock-ing on Closed Doors."

Lado Constitution
of 1772
Lado as a National Entity in Central Africa dates back to 9 May 847 A.D., though the name and the People contained in the Present Tribes of Lado can be traced back to around 700 B.C.

The Lado Constitution was passed on 9 May 1772, after the 60-year War and gave Executive Powers to the Agofe, which is the Institution of the Government.

The Constitution also gave sweeping powers to women - powers which the women of


Lado have made sure to hold on to, in as much as they are very visible in the running of the Affairs of the Household, be it Ori, Muslim or Christian, as well as in the Affairs of Politics.

A number of women had also been fighting on equal terms with the men in the War which earned them places in the War Cabinet, and they had replaced the men in almost all positions to keep the Society running during the War.

All this commanded tremendous respect and at the same time favoured the women with special protection set down by Law, all of it due to the Role women played during the 60-Year War (1700-1760 A.D.)

Women in charge
of Household and Economy
This traditional status of women being in charge ofthe Household and the Economy may be seen today by some, particularly the younger men pursuing a higher Education and modern living, as too powerful and suppressive since it is not good custom to go against a Mother's or a Grandmother's will.

And this is a Tradition, or rather a Law, which will not be altered in the Lado Five Year Action Plan since Unity, Stability and Family Traditions are the very Foundations for the successful continuance of the Lado Society.

Lado Five Year
Action Plan
The Lado Provisional Government, which was formally proclaimed and established on 7 March 1987 in Arua Aru in Lado (Africa), has set up a Five Year Action Plan from 2001 to 2005 which pledges to bring the Lado Nation and the Lado People of the various


Tribes and Religious Observations Peace, Stability and Security.

The Action Plan comes none too soon as the Situation in Lado has worsened gravely with the uncontrolled Political and massive Human Rights Violations and the Ethnic Cleansing Operations against the Lado People caused by the Intensified Fighting in Central Africa by Foreign Warring Parties using Lado Soil, including the Nile Valley, as their Battling Ground.

Kidnappings
of Lado Children
A Massive Problem to the Lado Civilians is also the extensive Kidnappings of Children who are hidden in large Camps where they are trained as Killer Soldiers or being used as Forced Workers or Slaves.

Such Destruction of the Children of Lado is in fact the very Destruction of the future Citizens and Generations of the Country and the very Soul of Lado which isup to Coordinate and Structure the Overall Policy of the Affairs of the State (Country).

Above all these Dicastries is the Lado Green Bureau, which is the Office of the Agofe of the State of Lado.

The Exercise
of Power
In order to prevent any Abuse of Power or Excesses in the whole Structure of the State of Lado, three Controlling Bodies of Government, have been established by the Constitution of Lado, namely the Legislative Council (Joroti), the Executive Council (Okurujoti) and the Judicial Council (Liimati).

Each Dicastry is headed by the Coordinator of State who is assisted by the Secretary of State.

Each Dicastry has five Directorates each headed by the Director General who is assisted by the Under Secretary of State.

Each Directorate is then divided into Departments which are headed by Directors


who are assisted by Assistant Secretaries of State.

All other Affairs of the State are handled by the Lado Civil Service Staff who are selected in accordance with their Skills, Professional Qualities and Merits.

Responsible for the Employment, Promotions and Pensions is the Lado Civil Service Commission, which is placed directly under the Prime Minister.

The Commission is also responsible for the Employment and the Recruitment of the Military and Diplomatic Service Staff of Lado.

In the event that any of the People in the Top Hierarchy of State should be engaged in the Abuse of Power against the State and against the Citizens of Lado, be guilty of Misdemeanours or Treason, they will be Impeached.

That applies to those who hold the Offices of the State, such as .the Prime Minister, theGovernor, the Coordinator of State, the State Secretary, the Judges, the Ambassadors and other State Holders of Lado.

The Lado
Political System
As one of the Fundamental Rights of the Citizens of Lado, according to Lado Constitution, the Lado Political System allows for the Freedom of Expression, the Freedom of Assembly and the Freedom of Association, both in Political and Non-Political Organisations, such as Political Parties, Interest Groups, Pressure Groups, etc., etc.

Five Year Plan
will go Ahead
"We will go ahead with our Five Year Plan regardless of whether the International Community recognises the Independence and Sovereignty of Lado or not", states the King who will call for an Election in Lado in the near future.

In order to gain a Seat in the Lado Parliament, the Political Party must first register with the


Lado Political Council which consist of the 29 Lado Tribes and is chaired by the Agofe of Lado.

The LPC Council consists of seven Committees, the Constitution Committee, the Associations Committee, the Society Committee, the Unions Committee, the Clubs Committee, the Friendship Committee and the External Relations Committee (ERC).

It is the LPC Associations Committee, a totally Independent Body composed of Lado Tribes, which is responsible for the Registration of any Political Party of Lado.

The Legal System
Protects the Weak
The Power of Clan Committee (Paamvu) holds the Authority to settle all Disputes in the Households (Jooti).

It is this Committee, headed by "The Custodian" (Amba) who acts as a Mediator, or in the Lado term 'The Lord of the Land,' solving all such Disputes, which refers to the Protection of Women andChildren and ensures the Safety of Family Institutions.

A Husband must by Law always Protect and Defend his Wife and the Children. This Institution is called 'Baaru' (The Family), whereas the Institution of Jooti is the Household headed by the Wife.

This Law guiding the Paamvu (Clan) consists of the Tribal Customs and the Traditions including the Common Law of Lado which is Basic Law.

Lado Politics and
Committee System
Directly under the LPC Council is also the Society Committee which deals with the Professional Societies, such as Lawyers, the Medical Profession, Engineers, Teachers, etc.

The Union Committee holds the Trade Unions, The Student Unions and the Union of Mothers which advises Young Women, Pregnant Women, working Women, etc.

Under this Committee is also the Young People's Union which is involved in advising and training


Young People and especially is responsible for Literacy, and the Clubs Committee which deals with all areas of Social Life, Sports, Music and the Supply of the Financial Support for these Activities.

The Friendship Committee coordinates areas such as Friendship Societies with other countries, Cultural Exchanges, Language, etc.

The External Relations Committee deals with Lado Foreign Relations

Each Committee is well organised by the Representatives of each Tribe.

The Agofe and
External Relations
The Lado Foreign Policy is conducted by the External Relations Committee which consists of five Sections: Foreign Affairs, Peace Affairs, Security Affairs, Religion Affairs and Commerce Affairs.

The External Relations Committee is constantly studying, researching, analysing, organising and advising - and is directly reporting its findings to the Agofe of Lado.

In charge of this Committee is a Vice Chairman and the Presidentof the External .

The Pro-Chairman also acts as a Substitute for the Agofe in order to ensure that the Agofe may always be kept up to date on all important Affairs of the Country and be the Stabilising Factor in the Lado Nation State Foreign Policy.

The Academy
of Lado
The Agofe, King Agami, has long nurtered a Burning Desire to Record the History of Lado through the Centuries of Lado's age-old History as the 'Cradle of Civilisation'.

"It was the Europeans who realised that Lado is the very Base of Central Africa, and on 26 January 1846 H.H. Pope Gregory XVI signed a Document making the Upper Nile Valley, Lado, 'The Vicariate of Central Africa'", says the King.

Other Historical Documents of Importance for the History of Lado, are the Turco-Egyptian Firman


of 13 February 1841, and the Turco-Egyptian Firman of 1 April 1869 for the Occupation of Lado which took place on 26 May 1871.

King Agami has for a long time been working on establishing 'The Institute of Lado Affairs' which will contain all information on Lado, i.e. History, People, Religion, Languages, Geography, Nature, Sciences, etc..

All this Research Work will eventually lead to the Creation of the National Archives of Lado.

"What the seven million Lado People and the three million Lado Refugees, and 'Stateless Persons' of Lado living in Exile outside Lado need most of all is Peace, Security and Political Stability", says King Agami.

"It is the Sense of Pride in the Lado People's National Identity and Heritage which our Government's Five Year Action Plan is set to Achieve,meaning the Inde-pendence and the Sovereignty of Lado."
