What annoys me most about this video is that it says he "lost" both of his hands. He did NOT lose them at all. They were chopped off, taken from him. Why is it we continue to numb things down by using such words as "lost." Mt God folks, let's stop this nonsense. Another annoying term is from the Funeral Home newspaper notices that say that John Smith "entered into rest today." Entered into rest? Are they kidding me? He died. Simple as that. The person died.

You are annoyed about how a man who was mutilated and set on fire chosen to expressed his ordeal. Seriously? And besides, if you actually listen or watch the entire video you heard him saying they cut his hands one after the other. He used the word cut. It's been 7 yrs, I hope you processing level has improved.

This is the typical nature of our people, the igbos. They can never run when their one leg is cut off until the enemy cuts the remaining one, then, they start running. Others went home for Christmas and he refused to go all in the name of business. The Liberian war that was announced, the war that lasted for many years and somebody refused to run even when his life was in danger. This was a reminiscent of the events of the Nigerian civil war.

We never learn even before the Biafran war, nna Igbo told all Igbos should start coming home but they didn't listen until the Fulani and Hausa start killing man and woman, children from Kano and kaduna dump them in the train to Lagos, from Lagos to Aba, umuahia. Now MNK has been crying out to them to relocate but they are not listening. They build the best hotels and private school and hospitals in the north . Biafra is coming

He started the war in Sierra Leone when he sponsored the rebel group RUF to overthrow the government of Joseph Momoh, he even lent his special forces of (The National Patriotic Front of Liberia), The resulting civil war lasted 11 years, enveloped the country, and left over 50,000 dead, he should have faced trial in Sierra Leone, Sierra Leone wanted to try him, George Bush (American President) ordered for his arrest but Obasanjo saved him from receiving the Doe treatment.

There are some lies in this testimony. The Rebels that amputated people in Sierra Leone were not Liberian, but west side boys. I worked with one of them in the US. All he talks about is how he used to go to Liberia, took people things and killed them. And they gave people short and long sleeves to people that they captured. Moreover, West side Boys didn't use civilians to capture Freetown
@BR-tc8wo7 жыл бұрын
How I wish they captured you and give you short sleeve, then you'll know the story is true. The West side -Boys you mentioned did not witness everything that happened. He only told you what he saw and partook. I worked in Freetown for more than 2 months and the story I heard is similar to what this guy is saying....
