Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg has arrived in Yaba, Nigeria.
The visit, on Tuesday August 30, 2016, is his first ever trip to Nigeria and in fact the Sub-Saharan Africa.
He wrote on his Facebook page: “Lagos! This is my first trip to sub-Saharan Africa. I’ll be meeting with developers and entrepreneurs, and learning about the startup ecosystem in Nigeria. The energy here is amazing and I’m excited to learn as much as I can.
“Our first stop is the Co-creation Hub Nigeria (CcHUB) in Yaba. I got to talk to kids at a summer coding camp and entrepreneurs who come to CcHub to build and launch their apps. I’m looking forward to meeting more people here!”
