When the Head of "the most Democratic Election in the Whole World", according to Jammeh himself has to flee Gambia, to save his life. Something is definitely wrong. "To make it absolutely clear"(as Jammeh would say) ECOWAS is not intimidated by Jammeh. The Coalition has been more than reasonable keeping lines of open communication with the incumbent for smooth transition.
Regardless of the current impasse Jammeh is impudent. He needs to get a grip of his senses. Nevertheless the Coalition has more important priorities to take care of:Like selecting their cabinet and to implement and align all necessary continguencies for President Elect Adama Barrow to take up office and move into Statehouse.
No individual's petulance,ingratitude and ego is more important than every individuals sovereignity. The attributes of a Head of State is to be of service to his or her country. Not to place his or ego and self interest above the people.
The Army's role is to work inside the constitution and to protect the National Souverignity. After 19th January 2017, Jammeh'rule as Commander in Chief is null and void. Therefore eviction is imminent. Jammeh delusional behaviour is completely illogical and his team need to persuade him to see sense. Advising him to start taking the necessary actions to transfer over power. Jammeh's perception is deeply flawed.He has not counted his blessings of being able to stay in Gambia, and enjoy life in Kanilai.
His team needs to be under no illusion their positions will be vacated for the new Coalition team to takeover. Therefore,with 15 days left each individual within Jammeh's cabinet needs to listen to their own inner voices for guidance. This not the time to blindly follow a Leader with an apocalyptic misguided vision of grandier. Your positions are to serve Gambian people not to betray them. Simply put it's time for a Career Change. Welcome to the real world!
IEC Commissioner Flees Gambia.
