Former President Obama’s tweet on #charlottesville becomes Most-Liked Tweet Ever

August 17,2017

By Sewe Ishola,

Former US president, Barack Obama’s tweet on the latest events at Charlottesville, US  has become the Most-Liked Tweet Ever.

Obama sent out this tweet on Saturday evening, while reacting to the racist protests, which has left one dead with many injured.

The former president paired a quote from Nelson Mandela’s 1994 autobiography, “Long Walk to Freedom,” with a picture of himself smiling up at a diverse group of toddlers.

"No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin or his background or his religion…" pic.twitter.com/InZ58zkoAm

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) August 13, 2017

It broke the record at about 10:07 Tuesday evening, a Twitter spokesman said, surpassing a previous tweet from Singer, Ariana Grande earlier this year on a terrorist attack at her concert in Manchester, England.

His tweet was distinctively different from  President Donald Trump’s equivocal responses to the protests in Charlottesville, where he condemned the violence on “both sides.

The protests developed out of a rally organized by white nationalists and resulted in the death of one counterprotester.

Mr. Obama’s tweet passed Ms. Grande’s on the same day that Mr. Trump repeated his criticism of “both sides” in Charlottesville in an impromptu question-and-answer session.

The most retweeted post of all time came earlier this year when a Nevada teenager asked Twitter users to help him win a free year of Wendy’s chicken nuggets.
