Labib (Arabic: لبيب), was the official mascot of the environment in Tunisia from 1992 until 13 April 2012, when the Minister of the Environment, Mémia El Benna, announced the end of its use.
Controversy
During the post-revolution Jebali government, Mémia El Benna made the decision to end the use of the official mascot, saying it was too closely tied to the former regime of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali.
On 8 May 2015, the Minister of the Environment Nejib Derouiche announced that a new mascot will replace Labib.
In popular culture
Labib was the subject of a song by the group ZeMeKeN "Ena Esmi Labib" ("My name is Labib").
