Embattled out-gone President Yahya Jammeh of The Gambia has asked a shift in deadline of midday to 4pm to vacate office as ECOWAS soldiers close on him.
Government sources said the request was made when the leaders of Guinea and Mauritania arrived in the capital, Banjul, in a last-ditch diplomatic effort to get him to cede power.
A regional military force that crossed the border in support of his democratically elected successor, Adama Barrow, was awaiting orders on Friday.
Marcel Alain de Souza, chair of the west African union Ecowas, said troops would force Jammeh out if he refused to leave the country.

The West African troops entered the Gambia on Thursday night, hours after Barrow was forced to hold his inauguration as president in Dakar, the capital of Senegal.
De Souza said the west African force, which includes tanks, has so far met no resistance.
Banjul, the capital, was deserted on Friday.
Dozens of vultures spread their wings on the large ground outside State House, and a lone cyclist, perhaps one of the few remaining tourists in the country, made the most of the empty roads.
The country’s chief of defence staff, Ousman Badjie, was seen speeding in the direction of Banjul. He has switched allegiance several times over the past month, and was celebrating with Barrow supporters in the streets last night.
It is unclear what side he and the military would take in the event of an Ecowas attack on State House, though most sources believed he was no longer with Jammeh.
The twitter handle of Charles Onyango-Obbot @cobbo3 said “ Jammeh asks for deadline extension – from midday (local time) to 4pm!
He’s not done packing #Gambia

Why he no wait make he see wetin for happen next.

From Hero to Zero for some people in Nigeria who beat drum for every negative things in their lives, they re after PMB calling for his impeachment cause he sent troops to unseat their Zero! hehehe. So now you are looking for "Barrow" to pack your bags!

So, you want to leave, I don't think so, wait and drag food with common criminals soon in detention if at all you would be alive. Majority of Gambians say you re not needed any more so go and allow another person to preside. 22yrs is not beans and what is it that you ve not done for22yrs you wish to do better now?

I dnt support the actions of Jammeh but ecowas are taking the advantage of a tiny and weak country. if Gambia is subscribing to the services of foreign soldiers for defense , ecowas will nt show this type of force.

They should please allow him to pack.. .

Really. The guy does not have balls afterall.

Begging like a sissy

That's is the best decision he has made in his life.

They have belittled him.

Jammeh prefers to be treated as a HE-goat rather than a HEro.

MUMU oshii

I WASNT EXPECTING THIS. AFTER LOOKING FOR MY 3D GLASS TO WATCH HOW THIS WILL END.

SO DISAPPOINTED IN HIM THOUGHT HE WOULD GO DOWN LIKE GADAFI

What Buhari couldn't achieve

Count everything before it gets to INEC office because Buhari will do anything and everything to rig in 2019

He won't like the Jammeh treatment
