The Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) General Abayomi Gabriel Olonisakin has hosted some ECOWAS CDS's at the Defence Headquarters, (DHQ) Abuja as part of efforts to mitigate the political impasse in Gambia following the refusal of President Yahya Jammeh to hand over power to the president elect, Adama Barrow after he lost the December 1 2016 election.

While welcoming the participants and ECOWAS  officials to DHQ, General Olonisakin expressed the readiness of regional leaders and military commanders to continue the pursuit of dialogue with the political leaders of Gambia and ensure peaceful transition of power in accordance with the Gambian's constitution and the peoples will.

Notable dignitaries at the event included the chairperson of ECOWAS CDS, General Ziankahn of Liberia, General CH Gueye of Senegal ECOWAS Commissioner for Political Affairs Hajiya Salamatu, Vice President of the Commission, the Ghanian Chief of Defence Staff and Principal Staff Officers from Defence, Army, Navy, and Air Force Headquarters.

We don't need to send our military men to that country which is just a fraction of a state in Nigeria. Send Peace corps to remove that MozaFoka

They should force that mungo park out! I hate sit-tight Leaders... For crying out loud, once u got voted out in an election and u claim to love ur country, why not leave as a sign of respect for the people? This stuff must stop in Africa and anywhere else in the world... Things like dis makes me angry..

God bless U.

Jammeh is about to get jammed. I still hope common sense will prevail and he won't drag Gambia down this disastrous route. This is one battle he can never win.

JJ Yahyah Jammeh was installed by Nigeria whose mission was lead by Col Musa Gwadabe, now it is time for the same Nigeria to retire him and grant him asylum in Borno.

the motherf should get lost...

any gambian that fights for this idiot is boko haram...

General Cassandra will you do this if Gambia is South Africa or Egypt or Algeria ?
