BBC World Service - World Have Your Say, The Gambia Crisis

Rival presidents, armies on the borders - we hear views on Gambia's political crisis.

Following President Yahya Jammeh's refusal to stand down we hear the conversation among Gambians about the current situation. We also hear from people in neighbouring countries about the crisis and whether or not they want foreign troops to take action

Plus, a conversation in India with people protesting against the banning of bull-taming, a key element of a traditional Tamil festival.
