Gambian President-Elect, Adama Barrow’s 7 year old son killed by a Dog (Photos)

Habibu Barrow, the seven-year-old son of Gambian President-elect Adama Barrow, died on Sunday after being bitten by a dog, BBC Africa reports.

Mr. Barrow’s son was reportedly being transported to a hospital in Manjai when he died.

The Gambian president-elect could not attend his son’s funeral, as he was advised to remain in Senegal for his safety.



Mr. Barrow won the December 2016 presidential election in The Gambia, but outgoing President Yahya Jammeh has thus far refused to hand over power, despite initially conceding defeat.
