- Former Liberian President Charles Taylor on Tuesday, the first day he took the witness stand, explained how former President William R. Tolbert was killed during the April 12, 1980 bloody coup, indicating that the first bullet at the president was fired by coup plotter, Nelson B. Toe and that second shot came from the gun of Harrison Pennue.
Emphatically, he quoted another coup plotter, Thomas Quiwonkpa as telling that Tolbert was actually shot by these two men before the rest of them were able to approach the place he was gunned down to the face.
After those savages killed Tolbert Liberia was never the same.
Say that again, Power greed spoil our beloved Country Liberia.
Those bush people reduced that country to utter $h!t !
Facts, Liberia would be a economic powerhouse by now
Taylor is so lucky yo be alive.
Charles Taylor has such a wonderful voice he could have made a wonderful news anchor in either TV or radio but he chose 2 live the hard way.
I'm impressed by his eloquence.
By the way he was involved in a plot to Assassinate Tolbert in Yekepa. It was foiled. He is not innocent of wanting Tolbert’s death.
Wow to hear this makes me sooo sad. My Great Grandfather was one of those 200 Men Taylor was talking about that were supposed to be "executed" my grandmother always tells us the story about how when he was in jail they were praying and when he was finally released, he was the only 1 of his friends that were let go, everyone else was executed
Are your parents Americo Liberian
It’s only prayer that can do such a miracle 😮
It’s truly chilling. Both my grandfathers were lucky to have escaped.
What a terrible and everlasting trauma😢😢!!
Our country was destroy long time
Waste of the country's intellectuals and human resources
Well said
I'm from Ghana. I've always admired how Liberians express themselves. I have listened to people like Emmanuel Bowier, and I can't help but admire the country that wasted its human and economic potential in a senseless war.
@@abdul-sallamali5294 I am visiting Ghana soon. Which part of Ghana are you from?
@@BlessedandAssured, I'm from the Upper West Region, but I live in Greater Accra. Welcome in advance.
So sad to hear this horrible story on how the president was killed
Very chilling to hear this revelation.
Those men could never have killed Tolbert in that building, only if the killed him outside. You need very trained individuals to implement that strategy. You see how Taylor himself was unable to capture that building even after President Doe was killed. All that is not true, Taylor only serve his self interest. He is so selfish that he killed hundreds of his own fighters because he doesn’t wanted to be associated with them. If you still what come out of the guy mouth then are like him. Don’t get me wrong, all those are evil. One you will take away from them is they believe in what they were doing. Even if their believes were stupid, they still fought for that. Taylor on the other hand, the man is all about himself.
Is he the only one responsible for those killed that you mention? You guys are so hypocritical and wanna blame one person for all the many deaths that occurred in Liberia. They were and still responsible for the many atrocities in that beautiful land. Doe, Taylor, Prince Ellen were fully responsible, if you stop being sensitive and Acknowledge all these folks owe Liberia a great deal of retribution.
I don’t remember the time he claimed to have live in the Executive Mansion. He briefly worked in there as a member of the Council of State and when he was elected President. He might have slept some nights but I know for a fact that he lived in Congotown while he was President.
Useless ICC joke of a court Doe was not innocent he received his Karma from Prince Johnson.
Well he should: all the while Johnson drank a Budweiser, during Doe's interrogation/torture !
@@bodyloverz30 and likewise Doe overthrow and executed innocent Tolbert and his administration on public display so what goes around comes around.
Taylor was not on trial for Doe's death, but for the civil war in Sierra Leone. He was never sued for the crimes he committed in Liberia. That's how the "international justice" operates.
Liberia 🇱🇷 has a very sad situation with coup and civil war but all of this destruction has been supported by Americans but today the run a propaganda campaign for justice against those who they supported financial and logistical.
"8th floor..."
Damn
Liberia got connected with U.S. that most of Africa country's why are you not coping the U.S. who to united instead of destroying mother Liberia
True
Where is Charles Taylor?Where is this man? Kidnapped by Wstern powers abd kept silenced?
In England lol
You want to give him a JOB.
😂😂😅@@tuforu4
Charles Taylor butcher so many ppl Libera evildoers so much bloodshed in Africa
President Taylor, Thanks you to explained about how former president Tolbert was killed on April 12th, 1980s!
I never knew Doe didn't kill Tolbert,it wasToe,hmmm that name is really close.
You cal him president, he is rotting in jail
for some of who were not born at that time
I'll never understand why the US didn't step in to help our little sister Liberia. For 13 years the civil war raged with hundreds of thousands killed. The US could have ended it in 3 days.
They had no issue with that country as the cold war had ended. They US supported Samwel Doe because they thought he would not stand the spread of communism in Liberia.
Because they were responsible…
@@xperiod962 Could be.
Taylor never lived at the mansion.
God bless. Thank you.
Do anyone remember or knew a man who work in tobert administration by the name of Spencer O.EDRIS???
Yes..... are you related to him?
Really pathetic!
There's payment here & there. No one has the right to just end another one's life. It's only God & Satan who can do it. The last sends people to do it. People who kill other people're control by Satan.
May God've mercy on their souls!
Thanks Mr Charles.
I remember when you were given asylum in Nigeria by Ex President Olusegun Obasanjo
If you know what his rebels did to Nigerians you won't thank him.
The butcher of Liberia 🇱🇷
Muslim, huh?
You're not a librarian.
Just shut up and listen.
U necessary questions
I’m watching everyone’s face and you can tell they can’t stand this evil man.
Hehehe. Like they are not interested in what Taylor is saying but waiting 2 pass the verdict.
He's doing a lot of snitching for person guilty of more of the same crimes
He is already been caught what is the point lying.
@@kman8446 to look human.
..PRIMITIVE
He’s lying, he’s try prove that reason he responsible for 250,000 death is because of what to Tolbert. All make up story… Tolbert was killed by outsiders and PRC to responsibility…
Smooth Criminal....that's his lot...
Dear Lord Jesus Christ help me to make the right decisions in life so help me God in Jesus name Amen 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 by Steve Irungu Jermaine
wow, so sad 😭
why even kill innocent people
chy Liberia 🇱🇷
The commentaries are so grammatically poor.......😢
Samuel Cameron doo
Gen. Obasanjo betrayed Tailor in Nigeria.
How sir?
@@brains7733 Obasanjo kept him safe in a big premises with high security. He said he not release him. After America threatened,Obasanjo give him bicycle to escape to neighboring country from there he was arrested. Now he’s still in jail.
What do you expect my Africa brother.. someone that betrayed our own legend FELA KUTI..the greatest musical icon they ever came out of Nigeria... Justices most prevail...🙏🏿🙏🏿
Good.
Nigerian presidents always betrayed Liberian presidents, they should learn now.. Doe and Taylor were both betrayed by Nigeria.. at least Taylor is still alive..
May God protect and give you long life daddy
