I was looked after by a witch doctor and endured the shame of being
named Odur (which means “rubbish pit”) after my parents failed
to dispose of my umbilical cord and the placenta in the traditional
manner. Then one day Mr Lakor turned up and gave me another
name, Munu, which means “white man” in the Acholi language. His
simple gesture helped free my mind from shame, and I began to
imagine the possibilities out there for me as Munu.
