Facebook has become an integral part of the lives of millions across the globe. Pretty much everyone with access to a computer or smartphone has a profile on the social network and, somewhat sadly, tend to play out their daily lives through it. In the latest Facebook statistics gathered by Social Bakers, it was found that just over 50 million Africans are users of the site. When put into perspective, that means 5% of the continent's total population of roughly 1 billion is registered and active on Facebook. Now for the burning question: which country in Africa has the most Facebook users and who comes in close behind them? 9- DR Congo Population: 75,507,308 Facebook Users: 891,140 Percentage of Population on Facebook: 1.2% 8- Ghana Population: 24,200,000 Facebook Users: 1,465,560 Percentage of Population on Facebook: 6% 7- Kenya Population: 43,500,000 Facebook Users: 1,886,560 Percentage of Population on Facebook: 4.3% 6- Tunisia Population: 10,777,500 Facebook Users: 3,436,720 Percentage of Population on Facebook: 32% 5- Algeria Population: 37,900,000 Facebook Users: 4,322,820 Percentage of Population on Facebook: 11.4% 4- Morocco Population: 32,878,400 Facebook Users: 5,250,340 Percentage of Population on Facebook: 16% 3- Nigeria Population: 170,123,740 Facebook Users: 5,357,500 Percentage of Population on Facebook: 3.2% 2- South Africa Population: 52,981,991 Facebook Users: 5,534,160 Percentage of Population on Facebook: 10.5% 1- Egypt Population: 84,550,000 Facebook Users: 13,010,580 Percentage of Population on Facebook: 15.4% NAIJA NO DEY CARRY LAST.

OP, thanks for this info. naija has a serious problem. only 3%? this goes to show that alot of people are still ignorant about the internet, there are many computer illiterates and conventional illiterates in naija and many more are still being produced as the country pushes to attain the 200 million population mark. what a proud country!!
