people's redemption council

The People's Redemption Council was a military regime that governed Liberia during the early 1980s. It was established after the military coup of April 12, 1980, in which Samuel Doe seized power. The Council was composed of 17 soldiers, including Doe as its chairman. It marked the first time that Liberia was governed by members of the native African majority and not the Americo-Liberian elite, and mass executions of members of the former government of William R. Tolbert, Jr. followed. In August 1981, Thomas Weh Syen and four other members of the Council were arrested and executed for allegedly plotting to assassinate Doe. The Council was dissolved after the approval of the 1984 constitution and Doe's election as a civilian president in 1985.
