Did Charles Taylor Received Help From Top Nigerian Officials to Escape?

An Associated Press reports in a statement credited to Charles Taylor’s spiritual leader, the Indian evangelist Kilari Anand Paul, that the Nigerian security agents assisted Charles Taylor in his escape and abandoned him when they received order from “above” to terminate their mission:
“Nigerian security forces encouraged former Liberian President Charles Taylor to flee and helped him get to the Cameroon border before the same agents turned around and arrested him in a double-cross…”
Taylor definitely received some help to escape; however, to assert that his escape was probably orchestrated by the top hierarchy of the Nigerian security forces is troubling and warrants a thorough investigation.
