wise man..are there not tech quru's and app developers in nigeria that can do that for him? na inferiority complex dy worry am!!!

I tell you bro!...Jst as someone as said, of all the internet and cyber guru's we av here in Nigeria. He couldn't just hide his nervousness of meeting Mark, so he had to come up with something. A big slap on our Computer and electrical engineers nd oda engineers in d field.

Yeye man!!

charix:
Mark came to study enterpreneurs(of which Afolayan is one) and tech startups. Afolayan knows very well Mark can fund his business as the government has failed in seeing it as a potential investment opportunity. If I recall correctly Kunle has made it known once he reached out to Mark for investment in form of capital. His coming only gave a second chance to ask physically.

I swear, some nairalanders are less intelligent than a door knob -- unfortunately these are the most vocal posters.
Mark giving Kunle money to produce a movie makes him a foreign investor. He can gift the money but being the business man he is, would rather invest it into a nollywood project.

I don't understand why people expect the FG to invest in or fund Nollywood. Would you expect the FG to fund/invest in your shoe business? Hollywood is or was never funded by the FG.
@topic.... there is no app nor way to prevent piracy....Mark can't help him on that. What he should be doing is getting a sit down with the FG ...not Mark.... to legislate and enforce copyright and antipiracy laws. Look and learn.... that's what Hollywood did to crack down on piracy in the US... moving piracy to a felony... caught selling a pirated copyrighted dvd?.... jail time and/$25k fine.... pirated DVD s became very scarce overnight. Nollywood need to get their act together first...still creeping stage.

Mark repeatedly said in his town hall meeting that he was interested in Nollywood, wasn't surprised he met them the very next day

Wetin concern akara with burger...Zuckerberg meeting is supposed to be with it techies,bloggers,web developers,app developers and it's counterparts...Been seeing the opposite like musicians,comedians,video directors,photographers...
like seriously

You people should learn to follow happenings thoroughly that's why you miss opportunities, Mark's mission to Nigeria is not only to developers but also to entrepreneurs, especially in areas where Nigeria is well known for round the globe,the entertainment industry; Nollywood, music etc.

Facebook majorly makes money from advertising to businesses and Nollywood is a big business in Nigeria, he needs to know how to serve them better.

Did you watch the video at all, or your brain just couldn't process it?

Kunle wants Mark to produce an app that will prevent dubbing of his works by pirates.

Hope that is simple enough.

clearly you are mentally deranged, and Mark is the only person to do that in the world right? Mark is Facebook owner and entrepreneur not a developer, pays devs to do the job and kunle can also do d same don't be a foul mouthed idiot.

If anyone is rich s/he is rich in his own pocket it can't change a thing in my life nor in my family,there's nothing he can do for me,

Now that he has come and go,has anything changed in Nigeria?
