Biography

Juma Oris Abdalla{{sfnp|Keesing's Record|1975|p=7}} was born and grew up in Uganda. He served with the Uganda Army and was a high ranking colonel by the early 1970s. Following the 1971 Ugandan coup d'état, he rose to one of the leading figures in Idi Amin's government. He first became acting foreign minister, and was appointed full foreign minister on 25 May 1975.{{sfnp|Keesing's Record|1975|p=7}} He stayed in this position until 1978,{{sfnp|Leopold|2001|p=96}} while also serving as Minister of Information and Broadcasting at some point.[1] By 1979, he had been appointed Minister for Animal Resources.{{sfnp|Leopold|2001|p=96}} Fleeing Uganda in early 1979 shortly before the fall of Amin's government during the Uganda–Tanzania War, Oris managed to take 3,000 head of cattle with him while escaping to Sudan.{{sfnp|Leopold|2001|p=96}} He went on to join the Sudanese Armed Forces as a mercenary,{{sfnp|Day|2011|p=452}} and also became a member of the Former Uganda National Army,{{sfnp|RLP|2004|p=14}}{{sfnp|Day|2011|p=452}} a pro-Amin rebel group that fought in the Ugandan Bush War.{{sfnp|RLP|2004|p=1}} In the late 1980s and early 1990s Joseph Kony, the leader of the rebel group known as the Lord's Resistance Army claimed to be possessed by the spirit of Juma Oris. It appears he was unaware that Oris was at the time still alive—something which he discovered when the two men eventually met in person.{{sfnp|Allen|2006|p=39}}

Oris founded his own rebel army,{{sfnp|RLP|2004|p=1}} called the "West Nile Bank Front" (WNBF), in 1994. Though founded in Zaire with the blessing of Mobutu Sese Seko,{{sfnp|Prunier|2004|p=372}} the group was mostly supported by the government of Sudan,{{sfnp|Leopold|2001|p=96}}{{sfnp|Prunier|2004|pp=363, 372}} as Mobutu's regime was already in terminal decline by this point.{{sfnp|Prunier|2004|p=372}} The WNBF fought for the seccession of the West Nile sub-region{{sfnp|Day|2011|p=452}}[2] or the restoration of Idi Amin as President of Uganda.{{sfnp|Day|2011|p=452}} Oris managed to gain support in northern Uganda by exploiting ethnic tensions and the lack of development opportunities in the area, offering potential recruits money in exchange for joining the WNBF.{{sfnp|RLP|2004|pp=1, 14}} While waging an insurgency against the Ugandan government, Oris allegedly to committed human rights violations by planting landmines in ambush attempts.[3] He also fought with his followers in the Second Sudanese Civil War on the side of the Sudanese government. In March 1997, the WNBF and its allies suffered a heavy defeat when South Sudanese rebels of the SPLA overran their bases around Yei, and then ambushed their retreating forces during Operation Thunderbolt. Oris was badly wounded during this battle, and the WNBF almost completely destroyed;{{sfnp|Leopold|2001|pp=99–100}}{{sfnp|Prunier|2004|p=377}} he and the remnants of his militia subsequently fled to Juba.{{sfnp|Prunier|2004|p=377}} From then on, the WNBF was "essentially spent" as fighting force.{{sfnp|Day|2011|p=452}}

Having suffered a stroke in late 1999, Oris died in Khartoum in March 2001, disproving reports by the Africa Research Bulletin that he had been killed in battle with the Uganda Peoples' Defence Forces.[4]
