Finally! Gambia's ex-president, Yahya Jammeh, steps down (video)

Immediate past president of Gambia, Yahya Jammeh, has stepped down from office. He announced his decision in a Nationwide broadcast he addressed last night.
"I have decided today in good conscience to relinquish the mantle of leadership of this great nation with infinite gratitude to all Gambians. I promise before Allah and the entire nation that all the issues we currently face will be resolved peacefully. It is not necessary that a single drop of blood be shed" he said
There have been an international outcry calling for him to step down after he lost the December 1st Presidential poll to Adama Barrow, his successor.

After the election, Yahya conceded defeat to Barrow but later changed his decision, accusing the electoral commission of fraud. He said he will not be stepping down until a fresh election is conducted.

On Tuesday, the former Gambian president who had been in power for 22 years, announced a state of emergency on the country for a period of three months. Adama Barrow, his successor, was sworn into office on Thursday January 19th in Senegal.

Where is uncle Jonathan. He should send a heroic greeting to yaya jamay ASAP . At least he sent one to Mahama after HE LOST ELECTION and handed over. It is really very sily to think of doing the normal thing as heroic which means u believe the abnormal is now the new normal. Only Jonathan and his fans can think this way

Kudos to Jahmeh irrespective of his earlier stupidity. He did well! And I applaud Ecowas, African Union and The United Nations for their efforts.

His punishment is to pay all the logistics for the troops that came to Gambia. He made countries to waste energy on his indolence.
