Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>An ex-general of the defunct Independent National Patriotic Front of Liberia (INPFL) of Sen. Prince Johnson has threatened to arrest and turn over the Nimba senator to the International Community over his refusal to cater to their well-being since the end of the civil war.<\/p>\n

The INPFL was a rebel group that participated in the First Liberian Civil War under the leadership of Sen. Johnson. It was a breakaway faction of former president Charles Taylor\u2019s National Patriotic Front of Liberia (NPFL).<\/p>\n

Young Gblorgbay claimed he and several former generals of INPFL in Nimba County began the \u201crevolution\u201d with Sen. Johnson but the Nimba senator has abandoned them despite winning two elections. We have turned to armed robbers to survive while Senator Johnson is enjoying the dividends of the civil war, Gblorgbay said.<\/p>\n

The ex-INPFL general, who is regarded to many in Nimba as a \u2018son\u2019 to Senator Johnson because of his involvement with INPFL during the country\u2019s decade long civil war, said he would arrest Senator Johnson and turn him over to the International Community to face the War and Economic Crimes Court for acts committed during the war.<\/p>\n

\u201cSenator Johnson has done nothing for ex-generals who fought along with him during the civil war. He has won two elections as senator of Nimba County since the end of the war in 2003. We have turned to armed robbers. I will lead ex-generals to arrest him and turn him over to the International Community to face the War Crimes Court\u201d, Gblorgbay said.<\/p>\n

The Nimba senator declined to respond to Gblorgbay\u2019s claims when contacted by FrontPageAfrica Wednesday. In recent weeks, Liberians have been calling for the establishment of a War and Economic Crimes Court to try those responsible for grave crimes committed during the country\u2019s civil war.<\/p>\n

Senator Abraham Darius Dillion of Monsterrado County has been one person pressing for the establishment of a War and Economic Crimes Court during the Senate sessions.<\/p>\n

It can be recalled one of the Senate sessions plunged into heated argument over the establishment of a war and economic crimes court, disrupting the one of the sessions.<\/p>\n

Sen. Johnson, who is serving his second nine-year tenure at the National Legislature, captured and killed former president Samuel Doe in the latter part of 1990 as one of Africa\u2019s deadliest wars raged against the first native president whose 1980 coupe ended over 130 years of Americo-Liberians\u2019 reign.<\/p>\n

Most agonizing in the eyes of those who watched the captured, tortured and subsequent killing of the country\u2019s former president was the spectacle display Johnson exhibited as he sipped what appeared to be a Budweiser drink while chopping off Doe\u2019s ears.<\/p>\n
