Gambia's defeated leader agrees to cede power: Official

 

BANJUL, Gambia - Defeated Gambian leader Yahya Jammeh has agreed to cede power to the country's newly inaugurated leader, a Senegalese government official confirmed late Friday.

 

Final arrangements were being made to the agreement, the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity because of lack of authorization to speak to the press.

 

Jammeh, however, has offered to step aside once before but changed his mind.
