Samsung's naughty billboard causes a stir

Cape Town – It’s either an absolutely brilliant marketing campaign or the most awkward spelling mistake ever.

Either way this Samsung billboard is getting a lot of attention.

The original idiom "the pen is mightier than the sword" is displayed on a Samsung billboard as "The penis, mightier than the finger".

The billboard was erected (sorry, not sorry) in Egypt, Pakistan, Kenya and France, Sowetan Live reported.

Samsung is yet to comment.
