Yahya Jammeh: "I Stepped Down Because I Love Gambia & I'm A Muslim" by CeoNewshelm(m): 4:22pm On Jan 21, 2017
Ousted President of Gambia, Yahya Jammeh has spoken for the first time since he was forced to vacate office.



In a speech broadcast on state TV, Jammeh said, “My decision to step down wasn’t dictated by anything but in the interest of the people of Gambia. All this while, as a Muslim and a patriot, I believe it is not necessary that a single drop of blood be shed.


“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.


“My decision today was not dictated by anything else but the supreme interest of you, the Gambian people and our dear country. I’m proud and honoured to have served our country, the Gambia.”


Ending his speech, he thanked his mother, wife and children for all their prayers and support throughout the 22 years he ruled the country.

I dnt blame him

You love Gambia n You didn't leave after they said they dnt want u again ? tot it is said that if you love something you have to let it go..

You love Gambia and After the begged you firs tym, Second tym, 3rd tym you didn't agree... you planned on stayin to force Gambia to love you.

but when You Saw the Nigerian NNS Unity on your waters, The Senagalese troops in your bay, the Nigerian Air force touching down, The UN declaring you persona non grata, and the Gambian Army abandoning You... You now remembered that there is a word called love ? Infact you are very very .........

Power really intoxicates that's why Jammeh did not want to step down, and that's why Buhari was interested in becoming president. He fought for 16 years to become president, even when he did not have a plan for Nigeria. All he wanted was power.
