Joseph Oduho Haworu (15 December 1927 - 27 March 1993) was a leading politician from South Sudan who was active in the struggle for independence and a founding member of the Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM). ==Early years 1927-1963== Joseph Oduho was born into the Otuho tribe community of Lobira situated in what is now Ikotos County, Eastern Equatoria State (EES) in Southern Sudan on 15 December 1927.〔 He was educated at Isoke Catholic Missionary Elementary School and Okaru Catholic Intermediate School, and became one of the first students at Rumbek Secondary School. He studied in Nyapeya in Uganda, then in Bakht Al Ruda Teacher's Institute, earning a Diploma in teaching in 1950. Following this he was a headmaster in intermediate schools in Maridi, Okaru and P'Lotaha.〔 In 1953 Joseph Oduho led a protest against the lack of representation of southern, non-Arab people in the negotiations over Sudan's independence.〔 He was arrested in Maridi after the 1955 mutiny in Torit, (his home town, now capital of EES), accused of conspiracy and sentenced to death. He was released in the general amnesty after independence on 1 January 1956.〔 Oduho was elected to the first post-independence parliament in 1957. He spoke in favor of a federal organization for the underdeveloped regions of the south. The army seized power in 1958 and Joseph Oduho fled the country in 1960.〔 In 1963 and as Joseph Oduho and his colleagues officially launched the Anyanya Movement in Kampala, Uganda, a book was co-authored by him and William Deng Nhial. The book is entitled "''The Problem of the Southern Sudan''" Joseph Oduho, William Deng. The 60-pages book was published by Oxford University Press, London, United Kingdom, in 1963.〔http://books.google.com/books/about/The_Problem_of_the_Southern_Sudan.html?id=7zZyAAAAMAAJ〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joseph Oduho」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
