In The Steps Of Ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Gambia’s President Yahya Jammeh Concedes Defeat After Loosing To Opposition In The Presidential Poll

Former President Goodluck Jonathan’s timely acceptance of defeat in the 2015 presidential election clearly saved Nigeria from bloodbath and political chaos as some retrogressive elements had prepared to unleash mayhem on the country had the presidential election result gone the other way round.
Jonathan's decision is become a fillip in the moral conciousness of most African leaders today and by that singular action, Nigeria's ex-president demonstrated regards for the peace and unity of the nation above his personal interest.
This today is becoming the precedence and trend across Africa as Gambia’s President Yahya Jammeh also conceded defeat.

The President of Gambia Yahya Jammeh concedes defeat; to hand-over power to the opposition after 22 years in government.
“It’s really unique that someone who has been ruling this country for so long has accepted defeat,” Alieu Momar Njie.
Gambian state television disclosed that the 51-year-old head of state, who seized power in a coup in 1994, would make a statement later in the day to congratulate Barrow.
Jammeh was running for a fifth term with his Alliance for Patriotic Reorientation and Construction (APRC), while Barrow ran for eight political groups who united for the first time to field a single candidate.
Yes indeed! ''As Goes Nigeria, So Goes Africa''.
Big-ups to all our African leaders who believes in the African project and who believe Politics is not a do or die Afair. #GEJ #YahyaJammeh
#YoungAfricanLeaders....we are looking and watching and seeing how politics should be played #NoVoilence#NoBloodBath...#Africarising#GodBlessAfrica.
