What are your thoughts about Mr. Yahya Jammeh and his desperate attempts to stay in power?

I'm honestly more sad at this entire situation more than anything, we have here a situation in which an autocratic president lost an election due to the sheer will and muster of 7 political parties in what was a successful attempt to out him and end his 22 year rule - And now it's all being threatened by Jammeh's desire to remain in power.
Hopefully this can be ended without bloodshed, but given the AU's response and Jammeh's stubbornness, it might just become a more violent situation, which would be most unfortunate.

Apparently the military of Senegal, on behalf of ECOWAS, is planning to invade Gambia by midnight if Jammeh doesn't give up power by then.
Here's hoping Jammeh can come to his senses.

Doesn't that have to go through the UN?
