Akullu Evelyn and Akello Mildred, Abia IDP Camp, Uganda 2006
In February of 2002, the LRA attacked Abia searching for food, supplies and children. Mildred was inside her home with her six children when the rebels set fire to all the thatched roofs in the camp. The civilians were then forced to choose between staying inside their homes, or being shot by the rebels while attempting to escape. After she and her children were burned, Mildred’s husband left her and found another wife.
