Gambian citizens were seen jubilating as former president Yahya Jammeh's convoy was spotted leaving the Presidential palace. Jammeh earlier promised to leave Banjul on Saturday with President Alpha Conde of Guinea, to begin a new life in exile. This followed Friday’s final peace move by Conde and Mauritania’s President Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz.
The two West African leaders travelled to Banjul to persuade the long ruling Jammeh to leave peacefully before West African forces pounced on him.
