It was a very interesting seminar. I watched live on Facebook. I learnt a lot. Except that Mark really did not dwell much on the issue of Naira to dollar rate raised by one of the participants. We still pay for FB Ads at 400/$ niyen.
i thought Nigerians can now pay in naira?

This Mark came with the people in mind. He is not an Aso-Rock person. That's very good.

Uche Pedro that was there doesn't have access to live stream abi? The truth must be told, its time for Seun to start mingling with his folks, been a programmer doesn't mean you have to be isolated, don't sit at Ota and rearing dogs and discussing atheist..

I hope you listen to my advice... Change!!!
To have over 1.6m members isn't a joke. No blogger, IT Tech. or Programmer in the whole of Africa has achieved this feat and at Seun's age. For American Embassy and other notable organisations to have owned a thread here on NL, is enough to prove seun's mettle. This guy travels all over the world purely for business and does not need to tell everybody of his plans. I just like him , for his innovative ideas. Mark needs seun more than seun needs him because whether you like it or not, Nigeria is the next IT destination....why did you think Mark thought of coming to Lagos secretely ahead of Jo'burg? He knows after India in the IT world and middle-income econimies, it's Nigeria

I don't know why it's so hard for so many people like you to just mind your own business.

Why must you keep on trying to redefine another person's life?

If you so much like to share Mark's presence, then what stops you from becoming a programmer yourself and hopefully getting an invite someday?

If I may ask you, can you exactly tell me what Seun stands to gain by going there and 'mingling' with his fellow programmers like you are suggesting?

I'm not saying those who want to go to see Mark shouldn't but frankly speaking, you making it sound like it's imperative that Seun should be there sounds quite odd to me.

Can you imagine? You are even telling him what you think he should be doing with his own time!!!

Anyway sha, I know you mean well for him but the thing is, people should try as much as possible to put themselves in the other person's position before criticizing or reaching a conclusion.

I don't know for sure but I have this feeling Seun is hit with the extreme case of introversion and for you to pull an introvert out of his comfort zone is like taking fish out of the water.

How long do you think the fish is going to last?

I am an introvert myself so I think I know what I'm saying.

Believe me, when you tell someone like Seun he should go and see Mark, his most probable response will be: to what end?

My point is: we all don't want the same thing.

While some of us cherish fame so much and will do anything possible to be so famous, rub shoulders with the high and mighty, shake the hands of presidents and grab all the attention from fans and all that; some of us don't even want to have anything to do with being famous at all.

You may not understand this concept very well, but then again it is what it is.

You need not wish to be in Lagos. Visit https://andela.com/ if you feel you have got innovative tech skills. He paid a visit to the Lagos office of the company he partly funds, Andela (Google also funds this company).

Andela recruits from the top 1% of untapped tech talent from the world. You may just be one of those top 1% they are seeking to match with top tech firms such as Microsoft, IBM, 6sense, Payoff, etc.

Let me inspire you a bit. If you get recruited by them, you will be flown to the HQ of the firm they match you with for two weeks to connect with the culture of the company. So hit the ground running......................and see yourself flying to silicon valley.

Some people don't know the difference between programmers and owners of website/blogs.
