Breaking: Gambia’s President Jammeh loses election after 22-year rule

Opposition candidate Adama Barrow has won the Gambian presidential poll with 263,515 votes, the electoral commission said on Friday.
The commission’s chair, Alieu Njie, said he was followed by President Yahya Jammeh with 212,009 votes.
Mama Kandeh, the third candidate in the running, came third with 102,969 votes.
Njie said: “What we see in this result is a change of government.
“The incumbent will call the new president to congratulate and wish him well.”
Reports say Jammeh ruled the country for 22 years with an iron fist and was widely accused of corruption and human rights abuses.
