In response to President
Yahya Jammeh’s refusal to handover after he lost the December 1st
Presidential election in the country, the Newest Nigeria Warship, the NNS Unity
is set to depart the country for the Gambia on peacekeeping mission, Nigeria’s
Military says.
This is coming on the

ECOWAS, to use everything within its disposal including military force to
ensure that President Jammeh steps down.
