Barely a few hours before his mandate expires, President Yahya Jammeh of the Gambia is reported to have accepted a last-minute deal to relinquish power peacefully and go into exile.

According to reports from Banjul which are yet to be independently confirmed, Mr Jammeh agreed to step down  in the interest of peace and stability of the Gambia after a tense closed door meeting with the visiting president of Mauritania, Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz.

Reports added that Mr Jammeh will leave for Mauritania tonight with President Aziz.

It is not clear whether he will settle there permanently or move to another country.

Mr Jammeh’s mandate expires at midnight tonight after his surprised defeat in last month’s election by opposition candidate Adama Barrow.

He had vowed to cling to power after accusing the country’s electoral commission of rigging the election in favour of the opposition.

His attempt to overturn the election result at the Supreme Court has been delayed because of a shortage of judges as most of the judges come from neighbouring countries.

Neighbouring Senegal and Nigeria have threatened to storm Banjul militarily and enforce last month’s election results unless he steps down by midnight.

That nigga wey dey my top, that's my position you know

I expected this, but then, for making Nigeria and Senegal to waste scarce resources, I think Jammeh deserves to be tried and jailed!

Imagine the waste this fool caused his country people buying last minute flight and boat tickets to flee their home to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

Imagine how much scarce resources Nigeria just ‎wasted to fuel those jets and patrol military boats to Gambia

Jammeh deserves to be tried and jailed to serve as a deterrent to other stubborn African leaders, what nonsense!! ‎

see how Gambia is boiling...that shows us what GEJ saved us all from...it's good to be good...

What a source. Why not peppersoupnews.com?

Bloggers would be the first to go to hell when the time comes honestly. Their lies are just irritating.

It's a shame people believe it and are even commenting about it. Not even a single word in quote, plus the useless source.
