[Thread 1/4] Strange true story. When I was 21 I worked in #Sudan as an English teacher. Immediately prior to my arrival in Jan 2007, our small 'British English' school had taught the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, the Minister of State for whom was Ahmed Haroun. In April 
2/4 that year the ICC issued a warrant for the arrest of Ahmed Haroun for war crimes and crimes against humanity. That month, our small school had published new promotional pamphlets advertising the school. Right on the front page, was a small feature congratulating those
3/4 students from the humanitarian ministry who passed their English exams. Right next to it, in full colour, was the below picture of our English director, beaming and handing Ahmed Haroun a giant trophy! Needles to say, myself and some of the teachers expressed our concern
4/4 with the material. The director of the school quickly drove around Khartoum attempting to 'un-distribute' the pamphlets that they had eagerly sent out the week before. So there you have it, a shit version of the Last King of Scotland. Glad Sudan are handing him over #stories
