Meet Nigeria's Mark Zuckerberg.


In 2012, Gossy Ukanwoke launched Beni American University, which is Nigeria's first private online university and which allows students to access their classes at any time of the day with any internet-enabled device.

The young entrepreneur, 25, said ''We are providing executive programmes for graduates who are looking for employment and want to build up their resumes or managers who want to climb the hierarchy of their companies. We also have courses targeted at people who want to start their own business.''

18 months into his new business endeavour, Gossy has hired 10 instructors and has about 200 students. Most of the students have been giving good accolades to the school.

Some of the courses offered include, Corporate diplomacy, Global marketing, Leadership and management, Digital journalism, Project management, Entrepreneurship and innovation.

Gossy is a son of two teachers and says he is driven by the passion to use technology to solve social problems.


**Very impressive, wishing you all the best in this endevour.
