On the outskirts of Gulu, Tonny Kidega, a veterinary doctor, is restless and, by all accounts, an innovative dairy farmer. He too is a child of the northern war, and spent two years hiding with his family in the bushes near the border with South Sudan. Eventually, as with ceramic artist and sculptor David Lukani Odwar, they were led out of the bush, and eventual safety and school, by their mother.
