He pats himself on the back for torturing, mutilating and killing former Liberian President Samuel Kanyon Doe. He drank human blood for tea and ate body parts for breakfast, lunch and dinner but sees himself as a liberator during the heydays of the Liberian brutal civil war. His desperation for power ran him out of favor with former President Charles Taylor to form the Independent National Patriotic Front of Liberia (INPFL). He has admitted with vaingloriousness that he killed everyone who crossed his redline. He videotaped thr gruesome execution of the former Liberian leader in which he was sipping on a beer and been fanned by an assistant in celebration of his action. This is Prince Y. Johnson, the serial killer cum Senator and “pastor” who is now the ‘limit’ in former Vice President Joseph Nyuma Boakai’s delusional presidential calculus that is now hitting the rock bottom.

From one political bargaining to another “for personal enrichment” that has seen millions of United States Dollars flying Pastor Prince Johnson’s way in his pay-to-play scheme according to the United States Global Magnitsky Sanctions imposed against the former warlord through the US Treasury Department.

For former Vice President Boakai, the political marriage with Prince Johnson and his surrogate Jeremiah Koung means a lifetime breakthrough once it give his delusional presidential ambition a relevance. With this relationship with two serial killers: Koung who is accused of selling human parts and Johnson, a notorious murderer, Boakai believes the only thing that matters is keeping his desperate quest for state power alive after 42 years of squandering opportunities and twelve (12) years of being a frivolous parked race car with US$20 million in the trunk and two critical sectors: Youth and Sports and Agriculture under his supervision performing miserably.

To sanctify this evil conglomerate, the serial killer cum senator has argued that the ruling CDC is also in political marriage with the ex-wife of former warlord Charles Taylor. Although every logic defeats this insinuation because crime is not transferable, Pastor and Senator Johnson still thinks he has the moral clout to be a key factor in Boakai’’s camp.

Election after election, Pastor Prince Johnson has successfully managed to manipulate the people of Nimba for his selfish interest to vote for a candidate pays the highest.

The Prince Johnson induced strategy is that Joseph Boakai is supported since he has no clear successor then they will kill him and blame it on his health condition. As simple as this equation is, sources close to pastor Prince Johnson and human parts dealer Koung to maneuver their way to state power under the cover of darkness.

Our impeccable and highly placed sources have hinted on the basis of anonymity that many officials of Unity Party and their collaborating parties are aware of this plot but they are deceiving the ailing oldman to solidify his delusion. The serial killer Johnson is working tooth and nail to ensure that he is not held to account for his atrocities committed during the war.

“Those who talking, talking, it’s good you’re talking so we can know you – so the day trouble comes here, which we don’t pray for, your home, there will be a visitation there,” referring to advocates of war crimes court for Liberia, former rebel leader Johnson.

Infamously credited with the capturing, torturing, disfiguring and murdering of ex-president Doe, Johnson, who is also accused of taking several Liberians including renowned Liberian musicians Robert Toe and Tecumsey Roberts, to their early graves during the brutal Liberian civil war, in a rather defiant tone of voice said: “if you were to come and arrest me, I will fight you.”

Over the years, the warlord Johnson has continued to use the voting population of Nimba County after lying to them especially the young people who are not aware of the history of the war as trump card to maintain his political business deal. It is important to note that Prince Johnson stayed in Nimba for one week before his active participation in bloodbath in the name of defending Nimbaians while keeping close eyes on state power.

In 2017, he supported the Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC) under the guise of reaping personal benefits but that arrangement did not yield selfish dividends as the Weah-Howard Taylor ticket decided to undertake critical development and economic initiatives that will benefit the citizenry against the will of Prince Johnson.

This is why the president killer is seeking solace in the Unity Party in a recycled endorsement through the financial support of Stanton Witherspoon who is indicted by the United States Government for selling fake degrees to healthcare workers who were destroying lives.

Ever since the consummation of this deal with all the attending sinister motives, the blood thirsty Prince Johnson is running amok with falsehood reminiscent of a murderer that the CDC led government is into secret killings. Isn’t it interesting that celebrated killer would accuse a global peace icon of killing?

In the days leading to the October 2023 polls, Prince Johnson is acting on the terms of his contract with Witherspoon behalf of the Unity Party to embark on a propaganda campaign to ensure that the plot manifest. He will use his church and Witherspoon’s media network to spew out lies.
