Dear All,

My name is Clement Julious Ugudo, AKA Commando. I was born on January 1, 1981 in Wau, South Sudan. In 1983 a war broke out in Sudan. Since that time, we were always in constant fear and running to the forests for our safety from being killed by rebels, or the Government fighters. Therefore, we moved to a village, and moved back to Wau. In 1998, Wau was attacked from Sudanese occupation force and burned down the city. During that time I was just a boy playing out side in a field with others children when we heard the rockets attacked. We tried to run home, but people were running in one direction. Consequencly, we ran straight to bushes and we could not stop we continoue running tthrough the bushes until we met an old man who told us not to go back to the city because we can get killed or you will be force to become a soldier. So he told us run through the bushes until you find a save city. We did not have any other alternatives rather than running through jungles, fields, rivers and we almost starved to death. That jouney took us three months to reach Kenyan border. Therefore, we were rescued by United Nations at Lokishoki Kenya and Sudan border. We got registered and we waited there for three weeks. Eventually we were transferred to Kakuma Camp. In 2001, I came to Canada and I was taken to Calgary AB. In Alberta I started working and schooling. In 2009 I managed to go to studio to record my first song. My music is mostly about my lifestory. Inaddition, music is my telant and is the tool that, I am using to put my message out there. November, 2012 I moved to Kitchener Waterloo. Since I moved to Kitchener I connected with Canadian Aweil Youth Association (CAYA), and now I am able to establish myself as a musician in the community. I am now working for CAYA to help youth participate in community activities. I also hope to use my music to tell my story and create a sense of belonging for those who feel isolated.
