<div>Yes, just to add. A lot less focus was given to the role Kenya plays in the eco-system. It being one of the most important chess pieces in the Internet Space for the Northern Corridor - from undersea cables to disruptive new initiatives being launched
to target the entire region that will shape the Internet for the next 500 million. Lets not dig deep into this anyway.<br>
<br>
Obviously considering we can not underesimate Nigerias role, was there any specific reason the larger demographic did not get to interact 1:1 with Zuckerberg so that we could pick him mind a bit more?<br>

<div>Hello, All!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Mark was in Kenya and Nigeria to listen and learn. Those of us who work at Facebook who live and breathe Africa have been encouraging him to come get to know all of the incredible creativity, entrepreneurship, brilliance and hustle on our beloved continent,
and he listened and came to see for himself. In addition-Facebook’s interest in partnering to drive connectivity should not be seen as a threat to any organizations who share our vision. We are a partnerships company, and we are so eager to partner with those
working towards universal connectivity. And more than a few companies on the list below can personally attest to this. But this visit wasn’t about any specific initiative or partnership-it really was Mark coming to learn in Yaba and Nairobi, to hang out at
AfriNolly, and to speak to and learn from people as passionate as he is about tech and all the ways tech can support connection, creativity and entrepreneurship.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>And, of course-he wanted to eat garri, ugali and jollof rice. But mostly jollof rice. OF COURSE. ;-)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am sure that it’s fun to speculate, but if anyone wants facts, as always, I am very happy to answer questions!</div>

the things he did, and the people he met.<br>
<br>
While some took this visit to be a validation of the continent's tech<br>
industry, others saw it as a quest for new markets and business by the<br>
social network, following a government ban on Free Basics in Egypt<br>

to attend the Aso Villa Demo Day with President Buhari.<br>
<br>
However, the narratives around the initiatives that Zuckerberg visited<br>
are also worrying. BRCK was touted as 'an American-owned, Kenya-based<br>
start-up' (<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__iafrikan.us5.list-2Dmanage.com_track_click-3Fu-3Db5c77b5d9fe8557cd2e26f469-26id-3D5e15b01ae8-26e-3D84a60ba6eb&d=DQMFaQ&c=5VD0RTtNlTh3ycd41b3MUw&r=ArvepG4_wcNu_X9xi3nb_Xa9WsGLVfmK6mwPdVONOTE&m=3B06QDq_83Kf0Y-fJxnXR-ubr1DixsDMJtsb5RsYUU4&s=KwnS2pyr1-bSUuCrUTg5Z2A3iDMjmALxHmy1rnXIBL4&e=" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://iafrikan.us5.list-mana<wbr>ge.com/track/click?u=b5c77b5d9<wbr>fe8557cd2e26f469&id=5e15b01ae8<wbr>&e=84a60ba6eb</a>)<br>
, and Andela, it was often pointed out, was founded by Nigerians but<br>
is incorporated in the US. The fact that these initiatives have to be<br>
qualified through references to the US is worrying enough, but the<br>
questions that they bring up do need answering. Why bring up the<br>
connection if not to serve as an indictment on the current state of<br>
the startup and tech ecosystems in these countries?<br>
<br>
Mark's visits did spark off a couple of niche stories. Like how<br>
Nigerians and Ghanaians will argue over who has the best jollof<br>

<br>
So Mark Zuckerberg was in Nigeria, and of course it's a BIG deal.<br>
<br>
What makes it even more notable is the fact the world's<br>
seventh-richest man came into the country quietly without making<br>
headlines or giving anyone cues before his arrival.<br>
<br>
Perhaps the biggest thing he taught us is that humility and simplicity<br>
are key components for every entrepreneur.<br>

A new report by the International Telecommunications Union indicates<br>
that 3.9 billion people do not yet have access to the internet,<br>
despite falling prices for ICT services and increasing mobile<br>
broadband coverage.<br>
<br>
Seven billion people (95% of the global population) live in an area<br>
that is covered by a mobile-cellular network. However, four out of<br>
five people in developed countries actively use the internet, compared<br>
to two out of five in developing countries and less than one in five<br>
in the Least Developed Countries.<br>

<br>
Ubisoft Casablanca was set up in 1998 by Ubisoft, a French<br>
multinational video game developer and publisher. This was the first<br>
gaming studio in North Africa, developing such famous titles as Donald<br>
Quack Attack, Beyond Good and Evil, and Prince of Persia: Two Thrones,<br>
which was co-developed with Ubisoft Montreal.<br>
<br>
However, the studio announced that it would shut down in July of this<br>
year. Yassine Arif, who worked as a developer at the studio, goes<br>
through the reasons for the closure of the only official video game<br>
studio in Morocco, and the lessons this holds for other similar<br>
ventures in Afrika.<br>
<br>

have been making waves in South Africa this week thanks to protests<br>
over hair rules that were previously enforced in the schools, sparking<br>
a variety of reactions across the country.<br>
<br>
Twitter and social media in general have played a major role in<br>
connecting and channeling these conversations in South Africa. Social<br>
media has its perks, just like any inventions but this one in my<br>
opinion is what makes it so revolutionary.<br>
<br>
Before Twitter, Facebook, or any other social media platform,<br>
communities suffered in silence and one was confined to their own<br>
space. Revolutions were only witnessed on television, but that has<br>
since been "censored" by the government. So who does one trust?<br>
