The funeral of Senator Prince Johnson, one of Liberia’s most polarizing figures, has drawn thousands to Nimba County.
His legacy as a former warlord, preacher, and senator continues to divide opinions.
While many honor him as a hero of Nimba, others recall his brutal past during Liberia’s civil war.
Our Executive Mansion correspondent Joseph Daniels was at the funeral from where he sent us this report.
