Even after leaders and presidents across Africa tried intervening, he refused to step down, causing the swearing-in of the president-elect, Barrow to be held at the Gambian embassy in Senegal.
Ex president Jammeh who goes by so many titles like Dr, Professor and many others is one leader that has proved very stubborn ever in the history of presidents. He has now left to go on exile after threats of military intervention to forcefully remove him from power.
