If you think that this picture is taken from a scene in a naija cinema you are wrong…
this is William weah was a Liberian university student who was summarily executed by the roadside on suspicion of being a member of Krahn, an ethnic group suspected of supplying fighters to president Samuel Doe during Liberia’s civil war .
After a brief interrogation by a pro Charles Taylor rebel in a grassy patch,his lean body was sprayed with a volley of AK47 fire at a point blank range killing him on the spot on 3/8/1990
"On this day, 25 years ago, during the early years of the First Liberian Civil War, a Liberian student was summarily executed by a rebel of Charles Taylor’s National Patriotic Front of Liberia (NPFL) in a grassy patch on a roadside in the small township of Bentol, located 50 km from Monrovia, Liberia’s capital city.
His name was William Weah.
And, but for the haunting photographs taken by photographer, Joël Robine, capturing the last moments of his life, he would have simply been one of the many nameless and forgotten casualties of Liberia’s internecine 14-year civil conflict. But, the world got to know his name, along with brief details about who he was and the situation that precipitated into his execution through the caption accompanying Robine’s riveting photos. “BENTOL, LIBERIA: A rebel of Charles Taylor’s National Patriotic Front of Liberia (NPFL) fire 03 August 1990 in Bentol on student William Weah, executing him after roadside interrogation fifty kilometers east of Monrovia. NPFL rebels suspected Weah to be a member of the Krahn ethnic group, the tribe supplying fighters to army of President Samuel Doe. Following the outbreak of civil war, President Doe was captured and killed in Monrovia 09 September 1990,” the caption reads." - The Liberian Echo
