        African leaders should learn to accept the will of the people. Jameh must leave now. No more tricks or excuses.

        . They are pampering him too much. He's behaving like a pampered son of a widow who has only one child. He should be uprooted!

        If Jammeh wants to stay past today, he will have to pay rent for the mansion. We need to vacuum the carpets for President Barrow
