Coming soon to VBS: The Guide to Liberia

Last year, VBS.TV and Andy Capper, visited the Liberia’s capital, Monrovia

Last year, VBS.TV and Andy Capper, visited the Liberia’s capital, Monrovia, where former child soldiers are surrounded by filth, drug-addiction and teenage prostitution. The film is finally coming out on January 19th.

One of the people giving the guided tour is Joshua Blahyi, aka General Butt Naked, an ex-war lord famed for forcing his soldiers to fight wearing nothing but shoes. Blahyi admits to killing more than 20,000 people and drinking the blood of children, but now spends his time preaching about his quest for forgiveness, and not committing mass murder and cannibalism.

As the team become familiar with the Monrovians, they visit some of the most dangerous spots in the city: jails, brothels and heroin dens, all the while on a course of nightmare-inducing malaria medication.

Catch the full story soon on VBS.TV and watch the trailer HERE.
