AHEAD OF THURSDAY’S inauguration, Jammeh has seen his stocks fall like flies; with several of his senior ministers abandoning their posts and leaving him on an island on his own. Fagbenle said late on Monday that he could not hear the new case, dealing a blow to Jammeh's efforts to halt the inauguration of Barrow. IN RECENT DAYS, some have suggested a possible asylum or exile for Mr. Jammeh, to an African country, in exchange for him stepping down. PERHAPS MR. JAMMEH has given up on hope and on life. MR. JAMMEH does not deserve a dignified exit from power.
