His first stop is the Co-creation Hub Nigeria (CcHUB) in Yaba, Lagos where he got to talk to kids at a summer coding camp and entrepreneurs who come to CcHub to build and launch their apps.
Also in his words "I'm looking forward to meeting more people here!"
There are speculations that the billionaire Facebook founder is currently in Nigeria to visit Jobberman (which he showed support for a few months ago), check out the Andela team (which he invested $24 million in recently), launch ExpressWiFi (an affordable WiFi project) and participate in the Facebook developer day which is happening tomorrow.
