EDOG RAMA

The Lore

This is Edog Rama.

Edog has been in charge since 2013.
Edog is on his 4th term.
Edog has seen phones go from 4G to 5G. Edog is still there.

Then came summer. For 135+ nights in a row people stood in Tirana holding up pictures of a pink flamingo. 🦩
Why? A luxury resort plan on Sazan Island. Protesters say the flamingos would lose their home.
The flamingos asked nicely. Every night. For months.

Then the students showed up.
Books are expensive. Fees are expensive. Jobs are hard to find.
Their message: "Edog, step down."

Edog doesn't step down.
Edog sits.

Then the students did something legendary. They burned a suitcase. 🧳
The message: we're not leaving Albania to find a future somewhere else. We stay.

The only one who should pack a suitcase is Edog.

Edog's response? "It's a foreign hand." 🫲
The flamingos? Foreign hand.
The students? Foreign hand.
Your chart dumping? Probably also a foreign hand.

Protesters accuse the government of corruption. Edog says the courts should handle it. Edog says change comes through elections. Edog stays seated.

Flamingos stay. Students stay.
Suitcase energy only for Edog. 🧳
