of LIBERIA in West Africa,inspite, the call of president GOERGE BUSH and
UNITED NATION, including other West African leaders for my husband to
stepdown and leave the country, but he refused then, due to some certian
selfish reasons, that controlled almost all the African leaders, and he has
been fighting for his own interest which was not of my interest,surport and
intention.Even though his people which he was claiming that he was fighting
to protect, did not want him.
On this issue that I, my son and my daughter whom did not support my
husband's interest and did not want to suffer the Accusation of war crime on
my husband's leadership,have decided to flew away and leave him behind as
the rebel and war supporters have been aproaching the capital city MONROVIA,
