President Adama Barrow of The Gambia on Tuesday revealed that President Muhammadu Buhari’s intervention was critical to get a recalcitrant former president of his country, Yahya Jammeh, out of power after losing the election last year. We have always wanted to say thank you when Nigeria gave us all the support during and after the impasse. He made one statement that changed everything, that if The Gambian President wants to challenge the subregion, he is welcome. President Buhari stated when asked what Nigeria will do for Gambian: “Well, your president has virtually answered the question. What was the deal you struck with the former president that led to the smooth transition?”
