And as the buzz over President’s Museveni’s photos grew, Kenyans netizens decided to start a #M7challenge, in which participants went to find spots on roadsides and have their photos taken while as chat on phone.

The hashtag trended for the better part of Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning.

A Kenyan comedian took the #M7challenge literally in the middle of a road in Nairobi and in the process caused a small snarl up.

Others decided to let their imaginations run wild.
