Mark Zuckerberg returns to Nigeria, meets Buhari, Osinbajo

Mark Zuckerberg is all smiles while taking selfie with Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and others at the Presidential Villa on Friday September 2 in Abuja.

The 32-year-old Facebook Co-Founder returned to Nigeria after spending one day in Nairobi, Kenya.

On Tuesday August 30, Mark landed in Nigeria, which was his first trip to sub-Saharan Africa. He left for Kenya on September 1st.

''Last stop of my trip: I'm in Abuja to meet Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo,'' Mark said on Facebook Friday few hours ago.

''We all met with entrepreneurs as part of Demo Day, an initiative for the Nigerian government to fund entrepreneurs with ideas for improving the country. We heard from engineers who are finding ways to reward people for recycling, designing ways to pick up trash easier, and using shuttles to improve commutes in Lagos,'' he continued.

''This has been an inspiring trip. The energy and entrepreneurship in Nigeria and Kenya is amazing. I can't wait to come back again soon!'' he added.
