-(« The Rise and Fall of « Samuel Kanyon Doe » from 1980 to 1990). »Photo »:Rebels placed « Samuek K Doe’s body on a stretcher in the streets of « Monrovia », the capital city.if you look closely his right hand is missing,most fingers and one small toe appears to be missing.
-« Reminder of the facts »:
-« Samuel Kanyon Doe » a native from Liberia(« Kran ») in « Liberia » labeled (« Wê ») in « Ivory Coast » but fundamentally, it’s the same people.He and his afro hair style reigned supreme over « Liberia », the so called land of freedom from (1980 to 1990).
-Before (1980), he was a lowly soldier with no dreams of ever being a president.His journey to the presidency started as a joke with his fellow soldiers.Before long, the joke became a plan, and became a coup.
-A predominant fact in (1985), « Samuel Kanyon Doe » survived a coup in (1985) led by captain « Kiwonkpa » who entered « Liberia » closely with a few rebels from « Sierra-Leone ».The main aim which stirred him to action was to make a peaceful coup not a bloodshed!He took over the national tv and radio and people were rejoicing in the capital city « Monrovia »!Rebels from Sierra Leone caught « Samuel K Doe » and tied him!Miraculously, »Doe » escaped and the table turned!Down the line, captain « Kiwonkpa » paid the price and was killed , in consequence the coup failed!
-At that precise time, capitain « Kiwonkpa » who was a « guiwo » labeled « yacouba » in « Ivory coast » had the the military support of « Prince jhonson » another « Guiwo » who run away when the coup failed!
-In the same trend, « Doe » made ennemies, one of them being the dashing rebel « Charles Taylor »( « a guiwo-kongo »afro american) who studied economics in USA and was close to « Samuel K Doe ». »Taylor » launched a large scale guerilla war against « Doe », such that by (1989-1990)-most of « Liberia » was under rebel’s hands, through a skirmish that started near the ivorian border in the ivorian city of « Danane » on the (24th of December 1989) with the financial and military support of « Ivory coast » ruled by « Houphouet Boigny » and « Burkina faso » under the rule of « Blaise Compaoré ».
-Later on , in Taylor’s camp, a group calling itself » the independent national patrotic » of Liberia broke away.In consequence, the ragtag militia was led by an eccentric psychopath called Prince Jhonson
-In « September 1990 », while « Doe » was visiting the « Ecomog peacekeeping headquater » in « Monrovia », the capital city(« INPFL) attacked the camp.They outmanouvered « Doe’s security and the peacekeepers, and captured the president. »Prince Jhonson » was among them;They stripped him naked except for his underpants.Furthermore, in the video caught n film, « Doe » is sitting on the floor and one of his tormentors holds a microphone to his face;He is begging « Jhonson » for his life in his own words:(« Yomi, yomi »), two people fight, one wins.Spare me,please. »Prince jhonson » sternly tells « Doe »:(« Don’t fuck with me »).
-Moreover, »Prince jhonson » lords over the gruesome scene of a room filled with rebels.He is calmly sitting on a swivel chair underneath a picture of the messiah « Jesus-christ »!In one hand, he holds a talkie walkie and the other a budweiser.The room is overly hot and for most of the video, one of the few female rebels fans him with a piece of cloth.She also gets him another beer and then water.
