Mark Zuckerberg Is In Nigeria Right Now

                Mark Zuckerberg Is In Nigeria Right Now

Well The Next Richest Man in the world took some time off Silicon Valley to have great vacation with his wife. Mark was in Rome with his wife, Priscilla, until a few hours ago (according to his Facebook page). He held a Q&A session, visited the Pope and did a few ?touristy? things.

The unannounced Visit to Nigeria.
Nigeria is the next Silicon Valley and soon the same way Nigeria is exporting the Gospel of Jesus which was once imported to us, will soon be exporting tech solutions to the world. Don't forget that I made this statement.

There?s been a lot of Facebook-related development in Nigeria so there?s a ton of reasons why Mark visited. First, remember his post on FREE WLAN and Jobberman? Free basics launched in Nigeria and Mark showed his support for 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 WLAN in Lagos some time this week.

Mark is here to take advantage of all the developments in Tech and see a way to get details first hand. ? Some key Business he took interest in include visit Jobberman, the Andela team he?s invested in, attend the developer workshop, launch Express WLAN AND have policy-centred conversations with the Nigerian government to further Facebook?s cause. Should I say Up Mark or Up Facebook!

Again, where are you now in the scheme of technology? Where will you be few years from now when the soup will be fully cooked? Youth Leaders and especially Student Leaders. I encourage you to take your visions and goals very seriously. If you do not have digital skills or not trying to gain knowledge of one quickly then you are not progressing.�

All (Youth) hands are on deck home and abroad to move Africa and Nigeria to the continent and country (respectively) of our dreams. It will happen *with or without you and me* The best we can do is improve our selves daily and support the cause instead of being part of the problem. Take YouthsLead seriously and join hands to invite all Youths to come onboard this ship.
