KWAR ADHOLA: The return of our brother to trace where he left his brother, is not an act of apology, rather it is a remembrance & proof that when we make a decision for the good of our people, it is a decision made in good faith. #LuoEldersVisitToUganda #Culture #Tororo
KWAR ADHOLA: Padhola must be feeling renewed. Padhola can now pick courage to stand on their two feet, and say this is the land which our forefather found for us. #KwarAdhola #LuoEldersVisitToUganda #MosesStephenOwor #KerOpiyoOtondi
