I lived in Monrovia Liberia from September 1976 until April 1980. I worked as an engineer/construction supervisor on one of the OAU projects at the OAU Center. I heard much of the talk prior to the riot in April 1979. I also inadvertently became involved in the riot. As I was driving home from the OAU site that day, a crowd on Bushrod Island surged across the main road, and surrounded my government vehicle. A rock was thrown thru the windshield. My driver and I escaped unharmed, but the vehicle, when we later found it, was almost a complete loss. --Jetstream3 (talk) 02:10, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
