Togolese Bloggers Poke Fun at President for Over the Top BillBoard   · Global Voices

Someone sure wanted people to know that he was thankful for Togolese President Faure Gnassingbé generosity. This week, a giant billboard was raised in Lomé, Togo that praised the president's action in favor of providing lunch for school children. The billboard seen below reads in french :” Thanks Daddy Faure for the children's school lunch“. Togolese citizens were taken aback by the message and its exuberance. They took to twitter to poke fun at the Billboard and create the hashtag #merciPapaFaure (Thank you Daddy Faure).
Bon, et si on lançait le hashtag #MerciPapaFaure pour rire un peu? #gnadoe @Nounfoh @AphtalC @teteenyon @liebeBAT pic.twitter.com/gjq030YkRw
