02:251. Every thing in Nigeria starts with a prayer
So he raised a prayer point

2. In Nigeria, everything leads to a turf war

He has a point
While Mark Zuckerberg is in Lagos can he get on national TV and lecture Nigerian parents on how to use Facebook? I'm tired!

5. So they started asking him, Who you Epp?

6. Some even stated making comparisons
Trust Mr Commonsense
There are many Mark Zuckerberg's in Nigeria. The problem is they are looking at govt instead of looking inwards to their talents and skills!

But we had his keys, keys, keys
Imagine what the 11 Billion naira loan you refused to pay back could do for the many Mark Zuckerberg's. https://t.co/cmkRYSRjvB

8. We made recommendations
Mark Zuckerberg shouldn't leave Nigeria without making a stop over at Calabar.
The dogmeat here is priceless.

Mark talking about why he is here is Lagos, Nigeria. Sadly, Jollof Rice is not one of his top reasons. #Facebook http://pic.twitter.com/qYFjt28Ukw

He took the most important one. All praises to Nigerian Jollof
Mark Zuckerberg said Nigerian JOLLOF is very good. http://pic.twitter.com/zHDsKnXpe1
