        ECOWAS has set a good precedent for Africa, for democracy & Gambians. Now it's time to systematically remove Jammey.

        "Strongman Jammeh". Only in Africa do they have these stupid names for politicians. Apart from the USA of course.

        That's bad news for Africa. It is a precedent that we shall regret. The #Gambia solution is in Gambia not foreign

        @lindayueh Never the best idea. Seeds of instability being sown in the Gambia. External forces shouldn't play military roles

        Jammeh is a coward, not a strong man. You lost, you moved on.
