That is very humbling.

Dangote will read the news and scratch his head.

Donald Trump will shit in his pants about the thought that 5x his networth wiped out in 2hrs.

In other words, Zuckerberg lost in 2hrs what the best in Africa can offer.

BREAKING: Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg Loses $16.8Billion In 2hrs, More Than Aliko Dangote’s Entire Networth

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s net worth has fallen more than $16 billion after the company was reported weaker-than-expected second-quarter results and issued guidance that its financial future isn’t as rosy as some investors thought it might be.

However, set against this backdrop, one activist investor wants Zuckerberg out as the firm’s chairman. You could imagine what the could do to the company.

Zuckerberg recently sparked outrage when he described Facebook’s handling of content from Holocaust deniers on the social network. He subsequently backtracked on his comments.

Fake news remains an ongoing struggle for the social media giant. Earlier this week, the company was slammed by the parents of a Sandy Hook massacre victim for the hoax claims that emergedon the platform.

Facebook has also been sucked into the probe into alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election.

The extent of the fallout from the Cambridge Analytica scandal and the new European privacy law, known as General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), is not yet clear. In the U.S. and Canada, Facebook’s daily active users remained flat sequentially at 185 million, while the number actually fell in Europe, falling to 279 million, down from 282 million.

Citing the company’s “mishandling” of a number of crises, one activist investor has filed a proposal that Zuckerberg be removed as the company’s chairman, Fortune reports.

Facebook has been firmly in the spotlight in the wake of the Cambridge Analytica data sharing scandal and has also come under intense scrutiny thanks to the proliferation of fake news on the platform, something Zuckerberg apologized for.

“We have a responsibility to protect your data, and if we can’t then we don’t deserve to serve you.”

– Mark Zuckerberg
Prior to Facebook’s second-quarter results, Zuckerberg had a net worth of $77.6 billion, according to Forbes. After the stock selloff, Zuckerberg’s net worth fell to roughly $68.9 billion, making him worth less than Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett.

Facebook’s market cap has fallen roughly $120 billion, or the amount General Motors, Ford and Target are worth combined.

On its earnings call, CFO David Wehner said sales growth is likely to decline in the next two quarters as it prioritizes new formats such as Stories (a popular feature on Instagram) and continues to invest in privacy.

HERE’S WHAT HE SAID

“We plan to grow and promote certain engaging experiences like Stories that currently have lower levels of monetization, and we are also giving people who use our services more choices around data privacy, which may have an impact on our revenue growth,” Wehner said on the conference call.

Some Wall Street analysts were still confident about the company’s future, but admitted that things were murkier after the results, especially in light of the recent European privacy laws, which went into effect in late May.

Fake news is detriment and rampantly garners even more likes and shares than real news.

I won't be entirely surprised if some people here still attribute this to Buhari's fault

But of course we can't absolve Buhari ...Under Jonathan Dangote was the fastest rising billionaire on the Forbes list but since Buhari came he has lost almost half his value and is dropping daily

Unexplainable. Dangote we respect so much versus zuckerberg we uses his online technology. Na wao. Our government keep telling us that agriculture is worth more than technology. A way to deceive the gullibles. Nigeria is full of food but some people tends to bring it down..... Technology breeds easy way of making money through agriculture.

The CEO is a stupid person

He allows his political views to infringe his business

He bind conservative opinions from facebook, while allowing liberals idiologies to flourish

Most recently, he denied holocaust ever existed

He is a self hated jews

God is trying to punish him

Facebook shareholders are asking him to step down as chairman.

Mark is going through a dilemma. The fact that he is struggling to take Facebook out of the struggle doesn't mean he is leading the company to disaster.
One thing is certain, Mark is smart, and he knows what he is doing. Facebook will grow more than it is now.

It wasnt a fortune to begin with. they produce nothing. all they have is a website that connects the world. all these peoples fortunes are imagined and not real. its based on speculative net worth based on stock value. meaning you can be a billionaire today and broke tomorrow if your stocks tank. so its imagined money not real money

Hmm, a Jew denying Holocaust? That's ridiculous and a big insult to the Jews.
