President Muhammadu Buhari has again congratulated the President-elect of Gambia, Mr. Adama Barrrow on his electoral victory, and called for a smooth transition in the country.
In a telephone conversation with Barrow shortly before his trip to the International Forum on Peace and Security in Senegal, the President expressed his gladness at the conduct of the contestants before, during and after the elections.
The President urged president-elect to ensure that the transition process is also as smooth as the electoral process and carry everyone along in his task of taking the Gambia to a new level.
He also expressed admiration at the existing rapport between the president-elect and other contestants, especially the current President, who lost the election, saying that democracy, rule of law and respect for each other are fast taking roots in Africa and that Gambia has also become a role model for Africa and the world at large.
