Gambia army chief says troops will not fight intervention January 18, 2017 Gambia’s army chief said Wednesday he would not order his men to fight other African troops if they enter Gambian territory, speaking as Senegalese and other troops massed on his nation’s borders. The Senegalese troops backed by other African forces are on standby to move into The Gambia as President Yahya Jammeh approaches a midnight deadline to stand down or face military action after refusing to leave at the end of his term. “We are not going to involve ourselves militarily. This is a political dispute,” Chief of Defence Staff Ousman Badjie said, after eating dinner in a tourist district close to the capital, Banjul, eyewitnesses told AFP. “I am not going to involve my soldiers in a stupid fight. I love my men,” he added, stopping to pose for selfies with admirers while dressed in fatigues, beret and green t-shirt, according to those present. “If they (Senegalese) come in, we are here like this,” Badjie said, making a hands up to surrender gesture. Badjie is no stranger to controversy after appearing to declare support for president-elect Adama Barrow and then switching back to Jammeh. http://punchng.com/gambia-army-chief-says-troops-will-not-fight-intervention/ 3 Likes |

Lol. When army chief refuses to go down with the president, the president should just silently crawl away with speed. Jammeh is obviously on a suicide mission. Anyone that joins him OYO lo wa. He will rather die as a president than die in the ICC cell. Which will be his fate if he stepped down. Being a president for 22yrs means most of the time you would have been delusional to think you were God. Thereby committing many atrocities, that when faced with exit, death by stray bullet may just be the cowardly way out. The best thing is to try to catch him alive so he can face the consequences of his actions in the past 22yrs. 48 Likes 1 Share |

SirJeffry:That's not true. A new president has been elected. Since his term has expired he will now be seen as a usurper. As long as the election was not overturned, Jammeh remains a criminal in that position. The kangaroo ruling by the legislature does not nullify his opponents victory and is void as regards the opponent. Jammeh will have to find room for his fraudulent legislative members in his house where he can reign as president for the next 3months. 38 Likes 3 Shares |
