Political crisis deepens in Gambia

Just hours before the end of his term in office, Gambia's incumbent President Yahya Jammeh is showing no sign of leaving, with parliament extending his term.
Jammeh lost in the presidential elections last December but has refused to concede to Adama Barrow, whose inauguration is supposed to happen on Thursday.
Thousands of Gambians and tourists have decided to leave the country.

A good leader must not divide his people undemocratically. Safety is the top concern for the Gambian people. Gambia doesn't need a Mugabe, step-down and dont create chaos.

zakeriya abdi I agree with you, although military action could prevent a Ivory Coast scenario from happening again, people should raise questions and keep an eye in case things like humans rights are violated
