Former American president, Barack Obama, now has the most liked tweet on Twitter, beating the previous record held by US singer, Ariana Grande.
Obama had tweeted a quote from Nelson Mandela‘s 1994 autobiography, Long Walk to Freedom, which preaches against racism.

And so far, it has garnered just over 3.2 million likes, 500,000 likes more than the previous most liked tweet by Grande about the Manchester terror attack.
Obama’s tweet was in reaction to the Charlottesville, Virginia attack which led to the death of a woman and few others injured.
