REUTERS - Gambia's security
forces entered the building of the Independent Electoral Commission on Tuesday
morning, instructed its chairman to leave and have since
barred other employees
from entering, the chairman, Alieu Momarr Njai, told Reuters.
"The military
came to my office and said I am not to touch anything and told me to
leave," he said. "I am worried for my safety."
West African heads
of state began arriving in the country on Tuesday to try to convince
long-ruling President Yahya Jammeh to relinquish power after losing an election
this month.
