Hours earlier, the country’s chief justice said he could not rule on an injunction filed by Jammeh to prevent Barrow’s inauguration going ahead.
The country’s army chief said he would not order his men to fight other African troops if they enter Gambian territory.
Meanwhile, Gambia's Parliament has adopted a resolution to allow President Yahya Jammeh to stay in power for three more months, starting from Wednesday, just hours before the end of his official term.
