The guy na muntulah! I see him as a fanatic. Since when did Gambia become an Islamic republic self, I thought it's a secular country, it might not end well for him if he doesn't step down.

I blame the opposition in that country for Jammeh's action. They threatened him with fire and brimstone and still wants him to handover to the president elect.
What are u sayin? So as u said they "threatened" him whatever that means, he shdnt handover abi...maybe Obama shdnt handover becos Trump wl surely reverse some his policies abi?

Until he is dragged out like Gbagbo before he wl do d needful abi? Lets c hw it ends but if it gets down to d wire, u sure kno Jammeh wont b leavin wt only a bloodied nose!

Another Zombie can you give us when and how Russia hacked US election. Russia hacked DNC database to get their dirty information which in a way is good for electorate to make informed decision on how their politicians says one thing in public and engage in something different in secret. I just pray someone can help us hack into both PDP and APC database we need information to nail those thieves for life.

The US has no moral right to challenge Jammeh. Afterall there are democrats in the US calling President Trump "illegitimate president" Why can US congressmen say this and Jammeh is not allowed same?

US gave Jammeh his latest ammunition. Jammeh had conceded but seeing how the deep state in the US tries to deligitimise Trump's election victory via Russian influence allegations; Jammeh simply used thesame argument of external influence to declare the election void.

Both Jammeh and the deep state in the US are wrong. One cannot claim moral victory over the other.

What is this one saying? How do you know if there is ojoro in the election? Where you in Gambia to know? You have evidence? Moreover, Jammeh is the incumbent and he has enormous resource to rig election result in his favor than Adama, the President elect. The president elect was not rich so he wouldn't have buy his way there, I guess it was just the right time for The Gambia to speak up in rejection of their president of 22 years. When the opportunity comes they grabbed it. They just wanted change by all means. They are tire of the reign of terror of the president for good 22 years. So this is an opportune time for the Gambian to change the president so that's what happened and I can also add by saying, it maybe a God's doing.

U.S. warns Yahya Jammeh: ‘Handover to avoid consequences’
ON January 18, 2017 8:28 AM / I
The U.S. has warned the embattled President Yahya Jammeh of The Gambia, saying he is losing opportunities to peacefully handover to President-elect Adama Barrow and avoid the consequences of his actions.

Jammeh’s tenure ends Jan. 19, the same day that Barrow is expected to be sworn-in as his successor.

Both the African Union and ECOWAS have said that Jammeh will cease to be recognised as Gambian President from the date.

Spokesperson of the U.S. Department of State, Mr John Kirby, said at a press briefing on Tuesday that Jammeh was putting his legacy and The Gambia in peril.

“President Jammeh is losing opportunities to respect the will of the Gambian people and to peacefully hand over power to the president-elect, which is supposed to happen on Thursday.
“Doing so would allow him to leave office with his head held high and to protect the Gambian people from potential chaos.
Yahya Jammeh

“Failure to do so will put his legacy – and, more importantly, the Gambia – in peril, and we have been clear about this,” he said.

According to him, the accusation by Jammeh of external interference in The Gambia’s internal affairs is not tenable.

“I don’t know what interference he’s referring to, but we obviously want to see The Gambia succeed.

“And we want to see the president-elect properly installed and to have in place a government, which is responsible for and responsive to the needs of the Gambian people.”

The U.S. had on Friday, indicated support for ECOWAS to take all necessary action on Jammeh if he fails to handover to Barrow.
The U.S. had regretted that Jammeh’s action had made the situation in The Gambia to become “very uncertain”.

“We call on President Jammeh to listen to his own people, to listen to the Gambian people who have clearly called on him to accept the results of the Dec. 1 election.
“And to again agree to what he already agreed to, which is a peaceful handover of power to President-elect Barrow.”

Kirby, however, said the U.S. “believes that ECOWAS can certainly play an important role in providing security and addressing some of the concerns that there could be violence around the transition”.

He also said that the U.S. was not ruling out its support to a military action, saying: “We do, and I’m not trying to back away from that in any way, shape, or form.

“I just would say that we do, obviously, support ECOWAS as a force for peace and security in the region, and specifically in The Gambia.
“Well, again, I don’t want to speak to what possible actions they may take. I don’t want to get out in front of those decisions,” he said.

Kirby noted the unfortunate accidental airstrike on an internally displaced people’s camp in Rann locality of Borno.

According to him, the U.S. will continue providing the Nigerian Government with counter-terrorism assistance against the Boko Haram insurgents.
