"Malian Spiderman" asked by Mali's President to ditch his newly given French citizenship and return to Mali to become a Captain in their Army... Twitter reaction is hilarious!

The President of Mali, Ibrahim Baoubacar Keita, has allegedly asked "spiderman" Mamoudou Gassama to forfeit his newly given French citizenship and firefighter job and return to Mali to become a captain in the Malian Army.

Gassama was made an honorary French citizen and was also given a job in the French fire service after he scaled the outside of a four-storey building in just 30 seconds to save a boy hanging off a balcony in Paris. Following the heroic act, he met with French President Emmanuel Macron and was rewarded. 

When the president of Gassam's home country heard the news, he met with him and there are allegations that Mali's president now wants the brave 22-year-old to return home and work for his home country instead. Lol.

Twitter users' reaction to the news will leave you bending over in laughter.
