  • The Former Uganda National Army (abbreviated as FUNA) was a Ugandan rebel group active during the Ugandan Bush War and the subsequent insurgencies in the country. The group claimed to be a continuation of the Uganda Army under Idi Amin and was made up mostly of Amin loyalists. It came to be led by General Isaac Lumago and Brigadier . The group was mainly active in Northern Uganda as well as Zaire and Sudan, where they operated rear bases and acquired weapons and equipment. Initially, the group fought against the government of Milton Obote until 1985, when military officer Tito Okello launched a coup and ousted Obote's government. From then until the ascension of Yoweri Museveni as president in 1986, the FUNA supported Okello's government against the rebelling National Resistance Movement. After Museveni took power, FUNA once again became a rebel movement. FUNA disbanded in the late 1990s and many of its fighters joined the UNRF II and the West Nile Bank Front. (en)
  • O Antigo Exército Nacional de Uganda (em inglês: Former Uganda National Army, abreviado como FUNA) foi um grupo rebelde de Uganda ativo durante a Guerra Civil de Uganda e as subsequentes insurgências no país. O grupo reivindicava ser uma continuação do Exército de Uganda sob Idi Amin e era composto principalmente por partidários de Amin. Passou a ser liderado pelo general e pelo brigadeiro Amin Onzi. O grupo atuava principalmente no norte de Uganda, bem como no Zaire e no Sudão, onde operavam bases de retaguarda e adquiriam armas e equipamentos. Inicialmente, o grupo lutou contra o governo de Milton Obote até 1985, quando o oficial militar Tito Okello empreendeu um golpe de Estado e derrubou o governo de Obote. A partir de então até a ascensão de Yoweri Museveni como presidente em 1986, apoiou o governo de Okello contra os rebeldes do Movimento de Resistência Nacional. Depois que Museveni assumiu o poder, o FUNA mais uma vez se tornou um movimento rebelde. A grupo se desfez no final da década de 1990 e muitos de seus combatentes se juntaram à Frente de Resgate Nacional de Uganda II e à Frente do Banco do Nilo Ocidental. (pt)
