#HNNTech 10 YEARS AGO I JOINED @FACEBOOK AS THE FIRST NIGERIAN AND A BETA TESTER. cc:@Omojuwa @Newsbytes

As the Social Network turns 10 years today February 4th 2014, I celebrate my part of it as the FIRST Nigerian that logged on as a beta tester during the Harvard University summers. This year I celebrate my 50th birthday, 20th year in Journalism and 10th year on Facebook. Official rollout in 2006 and I had 6 friends the whole year. Could not get anyone to open an account. Now look! Glenda Day Dunlap was one of them and still in my 5000 friend page.

My FB fanpage is called Facebook.com/MadamGovernor. I am the self appointed Governor of Nigeria's 37th state. #FACEBOOK. A Nigerian blogger Stella Dimoko-Korkus named me the #FacebookDramaQueen in 2009. I am proud to be the first Nigerian on FB as a #BetaTester 2004
Harvard University 2004 #AndrewMcCollum recruited me on Myspace when I had 100,000 friends. Now I make money off Facebook thru my news business and my several news product pages. February 17th 2004.

Thank U Andy!
