The Scandinavian foreign departments are now urging the Scandinavians to leave Gambia now.

They also advise urged to avoid all but essential travel to the country.

The Gambia tried hard for years to become an attractive travel and tourism destination. The destination exhibited at major trade show around the world and often it’s colorful stand design as a green destination won awards.Hundreds of tourists are to be flown back from Gambia  after the Foreign departmemnts warned “the potential for military intervention and civil disturbance is high” in the west African nation.

The move comes after a 90-day state of emergency was declared by President Yayha Jammeh just two days before he was supposed to cede power.

He is refusing to step down despite international pressure and the threat by other West African nations of a military intervention.

President-elect Adama Barrow, the man who ousted him in the December election, is vowing to take power later in the week, despite Mr Jammeh’s refusal to leave.
