Kuly Teddy Doe, son of the late Liberian President Samuel Kanyon Doe, has returned to Liberia after 35 years away, marking an emotional and highly symbolic homecoming. He arrived in Monrovia on Sunday, November 30, 2025, describing the moment as a reconnection with his roots and a renewed commitment to national service.
Kuly, who was only five years old when he left Liberia, told reporters that his mission is to work alongside his siblings in establishing the Samuel K. Doe Legacy Foundation a humanitarian-focused institution dedicated to “giving back to the needy and honoring the legacy” of their father.
According to him, the foundation will prioritize community development, outreach, and support for vulnerable groups across Liberia.
“In the coming days, I will be meeting with government officials and preparing for an official visit to Grand Gedeh County, where I intend to reconnect with my people and family,” he said.
Kuly now joins his siblings Celeu Doe and Mathew Doe who have also recently returned after years of living abroad.
The Samuel K. Doe Legacy Foundation is expected to roll out its first set of humanitarian programs after the family concludes its nationwide consultations and engagement meetings.
