Facebook Owner Mark Zuckerberg Currently in Nigeria

Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook is currently in Nigeria. He arrived Nigeria this afternoon. His first stop is the Co-Creation Hub (CcHub) in Yaba, Lagos.


Mark was in Rome with his wife, Priscilla, until a few hours ago (according to his Facebook page). He held a Q&A session and visited the Pope
 
There’s been a lot of Facebook-related development in Nigeria hence there are tons of reasons why Mark may be visiting.

First, Free Basics launched in Nigeria and Mark showed his support to the Jobberman team. Then the Chan-Zuckerberg Initiative invested $24 million in Andela. Facebook’s developer workshop is happening tomorrow, and yesterday, we reported that Facebook is partnering with Cool Link to launch Express Wifi in Lagos some time this week.
