Very good reception.  Well, today is Inauguration Day - in The Gambia.  However, the incumbent wishes not to depart.  Senegal is aligning with the president-elect, who took the oath of office in The Gambian embassy in Senegal, and hinting at military action to assist.

Think I read yesterday that Senegal has sent troops into Gambia to assure the transfer of power takes place.
