Jammeh is an overly confident strongman and his decision to hit the road came as a surprise to some who thought he will using his usual rhetoric towards the opposition. Opposition disunity has given Jammeh an easy win. Opposition groups this month rallied behind Adama Barrow to challenge Jammeh in the December 1 general elections.

Experts say Jammeh is likely to win but not with a lower margin. His candidacy was formalized last week after he presented his nomination documents, 5,000 nomination signatures and 1,400 voters cards to the electoral chairman, Alieu Njie of the Independent Electoral Commission. Njie has promised free and fair polls.
