Actor Van Vicker has revealed that the current instability in Afghanistan reminds him about the challenges he faced during the Liberian Civil War.
He made this known in an interview with the state television of Ghana, GTV.
Afghanistan has been in chaos in recent days following the Taliban takeover of Kabul.
In the interview monitored by African Entertainment, Van Vicker, an award-winning actor said the Liberian civil war gave him resilience and fortitude.
“I always get confused whether it was 90 or 91, for some reason, I always get it mixed up but either way, I should be right one way or the other. I think it was in 1991 November when we escaped from the war in Liberia and when I say, I use the war to invoke some kind of resilience and I count my blessings, it just means that within a span of about just three-four months, I almost got killed about six times,” he says.
“So, for me, when I see things like what is happening in Afghanistan, it just brings back those memories, gets me very sentimental, and I just count my blessings every day,” according to him.
