There is no peace in South East despite our departure -Miyetti Allah

Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore spokesman Saleh Alhassan Fulani herdsmen under the aegis of the Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore say despite their exit from the South-East and the implementation of the anti-open grazing law, the region has continued to witness insecurity. The spokesman for the group, Saleh Alhassan, stated this during a chat with PUNCH Live on Tuesday, adding that the development was evidence that Fulani herders were never the problem. He said that there was no more open grazing in most parts of the South-East but only cattle trading, adding that the cows being sold in the South-East mostly belong to Igbo traders. Alhassan stated, “That nonsense you see in the South-East is a manifestation of frustration… They will continue burning their cities, killing themselves. “Now that the herders are not there, they are still killing themselves. Sometimes they wear Fulani attires to continue to commit heinous crimes. “Now that the herders are not there, are they having peace in the East?” Alhassan added that the constant sit-at-home orders given by the Indigenous People of Biafra which were being violently enforced had led to the loss of cattle, hence the exit of Miyetti Allah. “Those Biafrans are shooting and killing their animals. Those making noise in the media are cattle traders. They will not go anywhere. The cows you see there now belong to the Igbo,” he stated. The Miyetti Allah spokesman said the group would not obey the anti-open grazing law being passed in most parts of the South because open grazing remains a way of life.

We will invoke the wrath of God on those opposing the open grazing law,” Alhassan said. The Miyetti Allah spokesman also denied reports that Dr. Chike Akunyili was murdered by herdsmen last week. He argued that the blanket ban on open grazing in the South was connected to the 2023 elections and was a ploy by southern governors to force their northern counterparts to negotiate for the presidency amid the raging debate on zoning. Alhassan, however, vowed that the group would never support the presidential ambition of any governor that is enforcing the ban on open grazing. He said a governor like Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State who is at the forefront of enforcing the ban on open grazing should forget about getting their support. When asked why herders are not embracing ranching, the Miyetti Allah spokesman argued that ranching was expensive and could not be done overnight. He advised governors to set up ranches and then lease them to herders rather than ban open grazing without providing an alternative

REVEALED! Forget About Charms, See What Sunday Igboho Uses To Protect Himself [VIDEO]

Sunday Igboho, Nigerian popular self- acclaimed activist and freedom fighter from Yoruba land, has revealed what keeps him alive, stating that his powers and charms have no meaning. In a short video shared on the official Facebook page of Olayomi Koiki, the spokesperson of the freedom fighter, Sunday Igboho who narrated a strange story about himself stated that it is only God who keeps him alive, and that it is God who determines if he lives or die, not his charms. According to the strange story, Sunday Igboho recalled that he was part of the ' Ile Ife' and ' Modakeke' war, and that he fought gallantly with the Modakeke people. He said it was during the heat of the war that a man was seen moving to their side with what they believed was a spiritual calabash on his head, and this triggered his men to start shooting continuously at him from a far distance. Sunday Igboho narrated that none of the bullets had effect on the man. Following the incident, Igboho said he was called upon to kill the man but when he got there, he also shot at the man but his bullets didn' t penetrate the man. Igboho went on narrating that at that point he was curious to know who the man was, so he captured the man alive, but he met with the shock of his life when he discovered the man was a mad man. Amidst this, Igboho said he shivered when he discovered this, so he became confused and searched the man, only to discover that there was nothing spiritual in the calabash and not even a single charm was found on him. Sunday Igboho ended his story saying that the story made him believe that his charms and powers have no meaning before God, because God was the one who saved the mad man' s life who had no charms nor any spiritual protection. The Yoruba activist went on saying that at the end of that day, he realized that his charms and powers are not the things saving him, rather it has been the Almighty God. Watch The Video Below(Video In Yoruba) Sunday Igboho' s story comes in the wake of the order by the federal government to get him arrested after the Department Of States Services, DSS, raided his home. Reactions Trail Sunday Igboho' s Story @Ade Nikki said, " Our hero, you are in our thoughts and prayers. God will continue to protect you and your family! " @Ally Abdul Gany Akanni sai, " Almighty Allah we continue to protect you and your family and guide you to the right path wallahu yahdikum. My Love for this Guy no be Here, the Fear of God in Him is more that some Religious Believers. God will never Betray You CHEIF SUNDAY IGBOHO @Matthew Crown Orex said, " Wonderful Mighty God. " FG Orders Arrest Of Yoruba Nation Agitator, Sunday Igboho Sunday Igboho' s plan to escape arrest may have been dead on arrival after the federal government discovered that he is trying to acquire a new passport to flee the country. Recall that the federal government had placed Igboho (a Yoruba activist) on a ' stop- list' in order to facilitate his arrest. Reports say the government also directed security agencies to apprehend him anywhere he is found, following the ' stop- list' order which means Igboho is denied all constitutional rights and privileges a citizen is entitled to. The directive by the federal government against the Yoruba activist was contained in a letter by the Nigeria Immigration Service, dated July 9, 2021, obtained by THE PUNCH. Sunday Igboho who was accused of stockpiling arms to destabilise the country after his home was raided, has since been declared wanted by the Department Of States Service, DSS. Though Sunday Igboho denied the allegations, he has since not showed up, and his whereabouts remain unknown. The raid on his house led to the arrest and detention of 13 of his associates while two of his supporters were killed in a reported gun duel with DSS officials. Reports say the Assistant Comptroller General of Immigration, Investigation and Compliance, A. B. Baba, signed the NIS letter issued to facilitate Igboho' s arrest on behalf of the Comptroller General of Immigration. The letter is titled: ' Stop- listing of person: Adeyemo Sunday Adeniyi (aka Sunday Igboho), male, Nigerian, passport number A11613637, date of birth 10/10/1972. ' Part of It reads: " I am directed to request that you kindly place the above- named person on stop- list. Credible intelligence revealed that Adeyemo is making efforts to obtain a police extract and/or court affidavit to enable him acquire a new Nigerian passport, apparently to facilitate his escape out of the country. " In addition, he should be arrested wherever and whenever sighted and referred to the Director- General, Department of State Services vide letter no: S. 605/A/246 dated 05 July 2021. " What' s your opinion? Isn' t Sunday Igboho' s story a clear narration that only God protects and determines if a man lives or not? Follow this channel for more

FG approves July 26 deadline for NIN/SIM linkage

The Federal Government has approved an extension of the deadline for NIN-SIM data verification to July 26, 2021.

In a statement signed jointly by the Director of Public Affairs of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) Dr. Ikechukwu Adinde and Head of Corporate Communications of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) Mr. Kayode Adegoke, the Federal government said the decision to extend the deadline was reached after a request by stakeholders on the needs to consolidate enrolment and NIN-SIM verification process.

The statement reads

“The Federal Government has approved the extension as part of its effort to make it easier for its citizens and residents to obtain the NIN and it is important to take advantage of the extension.

There are now a total of 57.3 million unique NIN enrolments, with average of 3 to 4 SIMs per NIN. With the great number of enrolment centres across the country, every citizen and legal resident should be able to obtain their NINs.

Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Dr Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami, on behalf of the Federal Government, appreciates Nigerians for their patience and compliance with the Federal Government’s directive on the NIN-SIM registration exercise.

The Executive Vice Chairman of the Nigerian Communications Commission, Prof Umar Garba Dambatta, and the Director-General/CEO of that National Identity Management Commission, Engr Aliyu Azeez, urge citizens and legal residents to make sure they use the opportunity to complete the process of enrolment and verification.”

Exposed: Akeredolu negotiates Civil Servants Salaries for Supreme Court Judgement ~ Sanya Atofarati

The PDP South-west Publicity Secretary, Chief Sanya Atofarati, has alleged that  the Ondo State Governor, Arakunrin Rotimi Akeredolu is currently in talk with the authorities of the Supreme Court to negotiate the allocation of the state for his favour in the yet-to-be decided Governorship judgement in Ondo state. 

Contained in a statement by his (Ondo state) Special Assistant, Comrade Omoniyi called on labour unions in the state to rise in defence of civil servants to prevent the menace purportedly concocted by the state Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, to negotiating their salaries with the forthcoming supreme court judgement which he believes would be in favour of his party, PDP.

In his words, Omoniyi said; "It has come to our notice that the Ondo State Governor, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu Odunayo has been negotiating the forthcoming Supreme Court Judgement with the State allocations just for favouritism. 

It is imperative to make this known to the general public and particularly the State Labour Union and its members that Governor Akeredolu has been on the move to negotiate their Salaries for his gains and interests by implementing this satanic means through the ongoing Half-Salary tactics in the state.

Recall that, during and after the appeal case judgement, there was a ploy to frustrate the appeal judgement. Even after the judgement, the appeal court reluctantly and refused to release the certified true copies of the judgement to our Party.

Despite that, It is so unfortunate that the Governor and the APC Party are trying every possible means to win at the forthcoming Supreme Court rulings through negotiations for personal and political interests and not minding the plight of the State Civil Servants and the present predicaments of the State.

We are calling on the masses and most especially the State Civil Servants to be aware and restrict this act of wickedness and oppression in the State."

10 apps you need to remove from your phone

1stnews.com

Jun 25, 2021 4:21 AM

Apps used to be fun add-ons to get the most out of your phone. Today, they’re vital to our everyday communication, work, and play.

Sadly, it seems like every week, there’s another list of bad apps causing headaches or putting your security at risk. Phony cryptocurrency and financial apps are scammers’ latest grift.

While we’re talking smartphone security, there are five tweaks every iPhone user should make.

 Tap or click for steps to see which apps are spying, hide your location, and close down access to your camera roll.

Now it’s time to open up your app list and start deleting the rogue ones.

1. Game and puzzle apps

Most people don’t put much thought into downloading free puzzles and game apps. But, unfortunately, that can come back to bite you in a big way when malware and other dangerous code are hiding.

Apps spreading malware want to reach as many people as possible, so it’s not uncommon to see ads for them across social media. That includes games called Rugby Pass, Flying Skateboard and Plant Monster.

It’s not just malware. Most games collect far more information than you might realize. For example, take the super popular Words with Friends.

This game collects the following data: purchases, contact info, user content, identifiers, diagnostics, location, contacts, browning history, usage and “other data.” I’ll stick with real-life Scrabble.

2. CamScanner on iPhone or Android

With precise cropping and auto light adjustments, this scanner app quickly shot to popularity. CamScanner even has an ID scan template, so employees filling out new hire paperwork can quickly scan and upload sensitive documents.

Now, hold on a minute before you trust this free app with your driver’s license, financial documents, and Social Security number.

Back in 2019, cybersecurity researchers found malicious code in the Android version of the PDF creator app. The bad code came from a third-party advertising library.

The app was updated, removing the offending software development kit, and later returned to the Google Play Store. Still, you may choose to stay away because you don’t need it.

What can you use instead? For iPhone users, the installed Notes app does everything you need when it comes to scanning.

For Android, try the Google Drive app. Hit the plus icon in the corner, then tap Scan. Easy!

3. Sketchy astrology app

Astrology lets you peer into the stars to see why you are the way you are.

Well, maybe. But download Astro Guru: Astrology, Horoscope & Palmistry, and you’re in for a whole lot of data sharing.

Check Point Research says the app, which has over 10 million downloads, didn’t properly lock down user data, including usernames, dates of birth, gender, location, email addresses and payment details. Yikes. Best to get rid of it.

Digital cleanup: Delete old accounts you don’t use, clear out your photo gallery, and clean your browser settings. Tap or click for simple steps to get all that and more done.

4. Find another way to fax

Here’s another find from research firm Check Point Research. iFax is a popular app that allows you to send, you guessed it, faxes straight from your phone.

Researchers found exposed cloud storage access keys that allowed access to faxed documents. As a result, malicious actors could gain access to documents sent by the app’s 500,000-plus users.

That could be a very bad thing if you’re sending, say, signed financial documents that include sensitive information.

Looking for an alternative? FaxZero is free if you send no more than five faxes per day and only three pages at a time. There’s a FaxZero ad on the cover page, but that doesn’t matter much.

To send up to 25 pages per day with no ads, it’s $1.99 per page.

If you need to receive a fax, eFax gives you a virtual fax number to receive for free up to 10 faxed pages per month. There are paid options, of course, should you go over the free plan.

5. Say no to this logo creator

Check Point Research found another app with an open, real-time database: Logo Maker – Free Graphic Design & Logo Templates.

The free app has a ton of downloads and great reviews. You would never know it could expose your info to anyone willing to look for it.

That includes email addresses, passwords, usernames, and user IDs.

Take this as a great reminder to set unique logins for all your accounts, even apps you may not access much.

Imagine you download Logo Maker and set the same password you use for your bank website.

Once a criminal gets their hands on your password, it’s easy to check other accounts using the same credentials.

6. An unsecured screen recorder

Recording your screen can be handier than a static screenshot, but be careful how you get the job done.

Screen Recorder, which has over 10 million downloads, exposes recordings made by users. Check Point says the app stores screen recordings on a cloud service.

That’s convenient, but researchers say, “there can be serious implications if the developers embed the secret and access keys to the same service that stores those recordings.”

Sure enough, Check Point’s research team recovered the keys that opened up access to each stored recording.

Of course, you don’t need a separate app for this. The functionality is built right into your phone.

7. Data-hungry Facebook

Think about how valuable your data is to Big Tech companies. Why else would they give you access to so many services for free? Facebook is a prime example. Here’s just a bit of what the app tracks:

• Your contacts, call logs, and text messages
• Your location
• Your internal storage
• Your camera and microphone

Facebook wants extensive access to your device.

It wants to track where you go (online and in person), what you search for, and what you buy. Then, it uses that data to serve you targeted ads. Don’t mind the ads?

All right. But Facebook is no stranger to data leaks, either.

Earlier this year, 533 million Facebook user records were exposed.

8. QR code scanners

When you download a third-party scanning app, you’re clogging up your phone. Still, many people gravitate toward these programs. So instead of rolling the dice and giving up even more of your personal info, use your phone’s built-in resources.

On Android, open your camera app, point it at a QR code and hold steady for a few seconds.

If a notification appears, tap on it. If you don’t get a notification, go to Settings and enable QR code scanning.

To scan a QR code on your iPhone, open the camera app and hover over the code. Your smartphone will automatically direct you to the code’s link.

Did you know QR codes are an easy way to share your Wi-Fi password without having to type it out?

9. More than just dance moves

TikTok is famous for its quick viral videos – everything from dances to dangerous stunts. But when children compete for the most viral clout, they’ll go to any lengths.

One 10-year-old Italian girl strangled herself to death in a viral “blackout challenge,” AP News reported. A 12-year-old Colorado boy also died while participating in a “blackout challenge” in April.

All parents to know the perils of TikTok. Your child may tell you they’re on TikTok to hang out with friends and dance, but every kid is susceptible to peer pressure.

If they see social media stars they admire partake in dangerous games, they may want to follow in the crowd’s footsteps – often at the expense of their safety.

If you have a kid at home, say goodbye to TikTok. Even if you use it on your phone, the kids may be inspired to download it for themselves.

10. Light it up

When smartphones first came out, flashlight apps were a must. Not anymore since this feature is built-in to phones now.

Many app designers added shiny new features to keep users around and keep tracking all that data. Take iTorch Flashlight for iPhone, for example.

The free app tracks your location, personal identifiers, usage data and diagnostic info. That’s a lot to give up just to use a flashlight.

Bottom line: Ditch the flashlight apps on Apple or Android phones. You don’t need them, and your native flashlight app is just as good.

SCOAN: T.B Joshua’s successor emerges

Evelyn Joshua, the wife of the late founder of the Synagogue, Church of All Nations (SCOAN), has been chosen to reign as the general overseer of the church, according to African News.

African News said elders of the church met and declared Everlyn the successor to the Nigerian televangelist TB Joshua.

Armed Robbers’ Involved In Ghastly Motor Accident In Ogun State

This news was revealed in a statement that was made by the Ogun State Police Spokesperson whose name was reported as Mrs. Abimbola Oyeyemi. She revealed that the three suspects were trying to escape with a Toyota Camry which they collected at gunpoint in Ondo State.

According to reports, it was made known that one of the suspects died while he was receiving treatment at the hospital. It was further disclosed that the three suspects were coming from Ondo State and that they were heading straight to Lagos.

After receiving such information, it was disclosed that the Divisional Police Officer quickly ordered that the victims should be placed under arrest right there in the hospital.

The owner of the vehicle however was reported to have come all the way from Ondo state. He was said to have explained how he was accosted on the road by five men dressed like policemen, and that he was dragged out of the car at gunpoint and the vehicle was snatched from him.

It was also revealed that the remaining suspects have been taken to the state criminal investigation and intelligence department for diligent and proper investigation and possible prosecution

Under Buhari, Nigeria's economy to lose 10 years' gains: World Bank

A new World Bank report says that Nigeria under President Muhammadu Buhari will lose the economic gains it made in the last decade at the end of 2021.

“By the end of 2021, Nigeria’s GDP is likely to approach its 2010 level, thus reversing a full decade of economic growth,” the bank in its new report said.

The World Bank’s projection comes as Nigeria strives to recover from the multiple recession that hit the country in 2016 and 2020.

The bank in the report said that there will be a constant decline in the country’s GDP per capita despite recovery from recession, projecting the country’s population to grow faster than its economy.

The bank further forecasted that despite the country’s gradual recovery from the 2020 recession, Nigerians masses will continue to suffer the adverse effect of the economic downturn.

Applauding Mr Buhari for taking bold steps to reform the country’s deteriorating economic condition, the bank advised the government to deepen its recent reforms that allows private sector investment for speedy economic recovery.

Nigeria in 2020 experienced its deepest recession in four decades.

The recession was believed to have been triggered by the economic shutdown occasioned by the outbreak of COVID-19 that same year.

Controversial fiscal and monetary policies of the Buhari administration and the Central Bank were also largely blamed for the recession.

Similarly in 2016, the country under the Mr Buhari regime plunged into recession, the first time since 1987.

However, the country’s economic growth resumed in the fourth quarter as pandemic restrictions were eased; oil prices rebounded, and the authorities implemented policies

to counter the economic shock.

Priceless moment boy who lived in forest and eats grass interacts with People for the first time

Twenty-one-year-old Zanziman Ellie suffers from microcephaly, where a baby is born with a small head.

Shunned by his villagers for “being different”, Ellie, who can’t speak, spends most of his time in a jungle. Now, a crowdfunding campaign to help him is gathering steam.

Bullies are everywhere but how do you escape them? Twenty-one-year-old Zanziman Ellie chooses to hike nearly 32 kilometres every day.

Born in Rwanda, East Africa, Zanziman Ellie has microcephaly . A rare condition where a baby is born with a much smaller head than what’s perceived as normal, Ellie’s disorder has made him an outcast in his village, earning him the nickname “real-life Mowgli”.

Shunned for looking different, Ellie spends his time away from the community in the jungle. On most days, his meals simply consist of eating grass.

A new video capturing the moment Zanziman Ellie arrived in an urban area and interacted with people has gone viral.

In the clip, city dwellers expressed surprise as they welcomed and interacted with him. He got to sleep in a real bed, eat good meals and was enrolled in a school for the disabled.

The video got many emotional as they praised his mother for standing by him.
