There lives a man named Joseph Kony, in the jungles of Uganda who has has recently became the center of attention on western social media.  #StopKony is a trend topping the world trends at this moment, the reason for this is a short documentary that describes who Joseph Kony is and what he has done to the children of Africa and how to stop him.

Joseph Kony is known as the leader of one of Africa's many armies called Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA). He started out in Uganda before expanding to other bordering countries in Africa.

Background...

Joseph trains children to become soldiers. He kidnaps them and trains them. Those who refuse or protest are killed those who accept to follow his lead he makes them kill people, sometimes there own families first.

These child-soldiers are maimed and ordered to kill others with guns and weapons in their hands.

Mr. Kony founded his own rebel group which for a period of 19 years went on to abduct thousands of children to become fighters or sex slaves.

Mr Kony himself is thought to have at least 60 wives, as he and his senior commanders take the pick of the girls they capture.

He sees himself as a spirit medium.

Young abductees, who have escaped from the LRA, say that Mr Kony would tell them he got his instructions from the Holy Spirit and would often preach in tongues.

"I will communicate with Museveni through the holy spirits and not through the telephone," he once said.

He has created an aura of fear and mysticism around himself and his rebels follow strict rules and rituals.

"When you go to fight you make the sign of the cross first. If you fail to do this, you will be killed," one young fighter who escaped from the LRA told Human Rights Watch.

"You must also take oil and draw a cross on your chest, your forehead, and each shoulder, and you must make a cross in oil on your gun. They say that the oil is the power of the Holy Spirit."
