Train corp members to fight Boko Haram – Governor Fayemi to FG

Olufemi David OLUFEMI DAVID - Wednesday, October 13, 2021

Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State, has said the security situation in the country requires concerted effort to address it.

Fayemi while speaking at an event in Ibadan said the security situation in the country didn’t warrant politics of blame, NAN reports.

According to the Chairman, Nigerian Governor’s Forum (NGF), one way to bring the current wave of insecurity to a halt is to recruit a large number of people to join the police and the military..

He pointed out that one of the cheapest and fastest ways to handle this was to amend the law setting up the Nation Youths Service Corps (NYSC) such that the existing orientation camps can be used to train willing and able graduates to join the fight against insurgency under a special arrangement that will be worked out.

He said corp members who cannot join the military services can serve in their community without pay.

Fayemi said; “By available statistics, we need minimum of 200,000 personnel to boost the fighting power of our men.

“This number is very large and a potential financial and logistic nightmare, yet we cannot delay any further.

“The ungoverned spaces needed to be closed up quickly by motivated men with the singular objective to save the nation. That takes us to the number two issue of financing and arming large recruitment.

“With this, we can use the existing orientation camps to train willing and able graduates to reflate the security personnel under a special arrangement that will be worked out.

“That way, the fund that is currently deployed to the NYSC can be used with just some additional funding, which could be sourced through a national emergency fund for the next five to 10 years.

“Those who cannot join the military services can serve in their community without pay, if we must still retain the NYSC for everyone.

“To incentivize those who may volunteer to serve, they will have a separate certificate and medal of honour in addition to having priority for military, paramilitary and civil or public service recruitment after service.

“We also need to encourage investment in the real sectors that can engage people and reduce unemployment, which is a major source of insecurity,” the NGF chairman added.

Bitcoin, Ether, Other Cryptocurrencies Fall as China’s Crypto Ban Shakes Market

Olufemi David OLUFEMI DAVID - Friday, October 01, 2021

Cryptocurrency market is witnessing major upheaval following China's blanket ban on cryptocurrencies, which was announced last week. Bitcoin opened at Rs. 33,52,013 (roughly $45,185) on Wednesday, September 29. The world's most-valued cryptocurrency witnessed a marginal dip of 0.78 percent making it the second day in a row to have dropped in exchange value. A day ago, Bitcoin had slumped by 2.96 percent. Analysts from exchange platform CoinDCX believe that the Chinese government's crypto restrictions have resulted in a sell-off with only a little long-term impact on Bitcoin price, which has often been seen to recover following an initial dip.

The day began on a rough note for the world's second most-valued cryptocurrency Ether as well. The Ethereum blockchain-based cryptocurrency fell in price by 1.39 percent. Presently, Ether is trading at Rs. 2,31,183 (roughly $3,116). On September 29, Ether had registered a significant drop of 5.93 percent, as per the Gadgets 360 crypto-price tracker.

Similarly, other popular cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin, Cardano, and Litecoin have also witnessed marginal slips in exchange values.

"The past 24 hours witnessed the bears dominating the cryptocurrency market. The two largest cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin and Ether, were massively sold off. The fear and greed index points to a score of 25 indicating the presence of fear across the crypto market," Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder of crypto-investment platform of Mudrex

Given the market instability, only a handful of popular cryptocurrencies registered a rise in their exchange values today.

Uniswap and Bitcoin SV are among the few cryptocurrencies that did witness a price hike, but only marginally.

Twitter now lets you add topics to Spaces

Olufemi David OLUFEMI DAVID - Monday, September 27, 2021

Twitter is adding another feature, “Topics” to Spaces. Topics will allow hosts to add tags to their Spaces to help users find their audio rooms easily. You can add up to three relevant topics so that like-minded individuals can find you.

The functionality is currently restricted. It’s only available to Android users, and there are only ten Topics in total that users can pick from. The Topics are only available in English. Twitter, on the other hand, claimed that iOS support is on the way and that the number of accessible Topics will expand “as we create together.”

Business and Finance, Music, Sports, Technology, Gaming, World News, Entertainment, Arts and Culture, Home and Family, and Careers are among the first ten Topics available on Twitter, which individuals may select to follow to get relevant content on their timelines.

The company announced in a tweet, “new in Spaces: Topics! when creating or scheduling a Space, some of you on Android can choose up to 3 Topics to tag it with from a list of our top 10 Topics. BUT it’s only 10 Topics for now and we’ll expand as we build together. English only (also for now!), iOS soon.”

The addition of topics to Twitter Spaces makes it function very closely to how Clubhouse works. Clubhouse has different topics and clubs where users can explore and join based on their preferences.

Since launching Spaces, Twitter has been constantly upgrading it to make it better for users. In recent months, the company started rolling out Ticketed Spaces as a way to support creators on Twitter for their time and effort in hosting.

Olufemi David OLUFEMI DAVID - Monday, September 27, 2021

Microsoft subsequently confirmed the life of Windows 11 at some stage in an event in June. this observed months of leaks and speculation from each nook of the net. some months later, Microsoft announced that Windows 11 could formally roll out to the public on October 5th. but you shouldn’t wait that long to get the very last model of the update. in fact, you may upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11 without spending a dime nowadays, and we’ll tell you how to do it.

The first thing that you are going to want to do is ensure that your computer is compatible with the Windows 11 upgrade. This has been one of the biggest controversies surrounding the release of the update. Microsoft isn’t bringing nearly as many devices into the next generation as users expected. You can download the PC Health App directly from Microsoft by clicking on this link.

How to upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11

Once you are sure that your computer is compatible with Windows 11, the next step is to register for the Windows Insider Program. The upgrade is only available to Insiders right now, but the program is completely free. Just follow the steps on Microsoft’s website to sign up.

After you join the Windows Insider Program, you should be ready to upgrade. On your Windows 10 PC, go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Insider Program. Click the “Get started” button and link your Microsoft account. You should then be prompted to pick your Insider settings, at which point you should select the Release Preview ring. Confirm your settings, agree to the terms, and then reset your computer. When you go back to the Update & Security settings, you should see a large banner about upgrading to Windows 11. Click the “Download and Install” button.

Once the upgrade is complete, you can stay on the final, stable build of Windows 11 by going back to Settings > Windows Update and clicking “Stop getting preview builds.” This will stop Microsoft from pushing early versions of future updates to your Windows 11 computer.

Some of the standout features in Windows 11 include a centered Taskbar and redesigned Start menu, an updated File Manager, a Widgets drawer, and all-new Snap Groups and Snap Layouts for improved multitasking. There’s also a redesigned Settings app, new themes, new sounds, and rounded corners everywhere you look. If you aren’t quite ready to upgrade yet, the final public build will be available for everyone on October 5th. At that point, everyone with a compatible PC can upgrade.
