The Yekepa Memory Project

This site is dedicated to information about Yekepa. 
If you were there, we need your help - we want to collect pictures and information about the place, and about the people - then and now.

September, 2026: Nimba today — news, photographs and radio. A regularly updated companion to the Yekepa Memory Project, following life across Nimba County, with special attention to Yekepa and Gbapa. Read recent community news and find credited links to local radio programmes. Visit Nimba news.
There is also a new Search the site across pages, PDFs, and scanned LAMCO NEWS pages.

March 2026: A stabilized version of the motorcycle ride from Area E, past E-school, past area R and up the hill to the swimming pool is now online - thanks again to Jonathan Korli of Yekepa for the original video. link
There is also a new Archives button at left: archive research links for library and archive sources on LAMCO and Yekepa.

August 2014: Dick "Fytas" Johansson has written a book, a novel - "Guld och Gröna Skogar och ett berg av Järn".  It draws many strings together for the story in Liberia. I am still reading it - so far it is looking very good! Book details and library holdings: Libris (ISBN 9789185177462) 

February 2014: Try this motorcycle ride from Area E, past E-school, past area R and up the Hill to the swimming pool - thanks to Jonathan Korli of Yekepa: link

December 2013: Dick Johansson has a picture book with Yekepa.

May 2013: Book on Liberian English by  John-Mark Sheppard "Cracking the Code", is interesting. He lived in Nimba County. Note our own items on Liberian speech. Class picture from 1966, E-school - 9th grade. Thanks to Dick Johansson.

September 2012: Another issue of LAMCO News scanned. Contains interesting article on Nature conservacy in Nimba.

June 2012: More  images from Dick Johanson added. Please help us identify people! Write to us using this form. Check back often - there are many images and it takes time to add each one! Work in progress: all links may not work yet. Test of alternative setup: E-school pictures. All of Dick Johanson's image here. The setup is experimental (includes commercials because the software used is free).

April 2012: Hoping to get the site up and running from Ubuntu (working on it!). Dick Johansson ('Fytas') has sent some images.
