ECOWAS Troops Amass on Gambian Border- Jammeh has till Midnight to Leave

[thatrapsfan]

DAKAR, Senegal — Gambia headed late Wednesday toward a midnight showdown between a president who refuses to leave office and a president-elect who insists he will take power, while a regional force moved toward the country’s borders in a threat to intervene.

Hours before the end of President Yahya Jammeh’s mandate, legislators voted to extend his term by three months. Jammeh, who declared a three-month state of emergency on Tuesday, is challenging his loss in December’s election, citing voting irregularities.

But an adviser to President-elect Adama Barrow, Mai Ahmad Fatty, warned in a Facebook post that “those who resist peaceful change effective 12 midnight tonight shall face definite consequences, to their peril. Anyone with firearms tonight shall be deemed a rebel, and will certainly become a legitimate target.”

Yup. None of his neighbours like him, barely has support at home. Dude is the definition of isolated. Betting he will give up soon.
