Through the years, there have been plenty of tactics used to try and encourage people to quit smoking.

On these shores, we've seen a number of advertising campaigns on the TV along with a range of health warnings being plastered on cigarette packaging. In Russia, an advert seen in a Moscow bus shelter is also keen to stress that smoking isn't all that great for your health, but uses a slightly different approach. 'Smoking kills more than Obama, although he kills lots and lots of people,' the poster reads. 'Don't smoke, don't be like Obama'. According to The Guardian, its unclear who is responsible for the poster. https://twitter.com/CherguiaMbark/status/699903444941930496
