My life in Africa report by Acaa Serata

I am a married resposible woman with 08 children and I am 49 years old .I was born in 1957 from Nwoya sub -county -Gulu district in northern Uganda.I stoped in primary 7 in the year 1975 and from there I got married. My husband is a bussiness man and I am a peasiant farmer .We both work toward maintaining the farmily and providing for them the basic needs.

I never enjoyed good life in my life time due to the 20 years on going war northern Uganda.You give birth to a child and you start taking care right from the child hood .When the child has reaches 10 years old, the LRA rebel s just come and take a way the child to the bush.This is the problem that most of the farlies has experienced. Secondly,as a farmer you plant crops when it is ready for harvest, another person come to harvest ie the rebel .This has made life soo difficult for the entire people in the north.

I am happy that ,my children are all studying and that is my hope for feature.I also want to comment about Life in Africa and their programme, They have brought in some good programmes such as beads making , strawmat making, bags and soo many things.This in the other way will help to retore back our cultural values which has almost fadded away. I believe it is going to help me farmily, and the entire community of Gulu.
