African forces surround Gambia as Prez refuses to step down
Troops from five African countries have been positioned near Gambia's borders in Senegal on Thursday to convince President Yahya Jammeh to step down after he declared an emergency after losing the elections. Meanwhile, Gambia's President-elect Adama Barrow tweeted an invitation to his swearing-in ceremony scheduled on the same day in the country's embassy in Senegal.
