COVID-19 IN NIGERIA: WE SAY NO TO CHINA INTERVENTION

Can the world ever trust China again? Would Nigeria romance with the prime suspect of the current global crisis (COVID-19)? How can we? In 2012 China handed over a fully funded and built headquarters building in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to the African Union (AU). A great gesture of friendship and solidarity, perhaps. But not long after, it was alleged to have been bugged, leaking vital, confidential information of the Union to China in faraway Shanghai! True or false, the Union had to change its computer servers to check the alleged mischief. But issues of health are different. Misfiring means losing a life, or even lives. On a national scale, that can amount to thousands. Painful loss. Avoidable loss. The authorities must tread with caution here. Face masks, test kits, ventilators, vaccine and doctors - all from or of China. Hmmmm, caution we must exercise. Until now we have been using our indigenous doctors, and they have been doing well. WHY CHANGE THE WINNING TEAM? Please let us DISCARD this idea of Chinese intervention. WE DON'T NEED IT. Let us stay safe Stay indigenous. Stay Nigerian We shall overcome

Billions of Yahoo accounts hacked: Here is how to secure your account

Following reports that over a billion Yahoo accounts have been hacked, it is important for you to take necessary steps so as to prevent account manipulations. For potentially affected accounts, information stolen may have included names, email addresses, telephone numbers, dates of birth, hashed passwords and in some cases, encrypted or unencrypted security questions and answers.

These Are What You Should Do 1. Change your passwords and security questions and answers for any other accounts on which you used the same or similar information used for your Yahoo account.

2. Review all of your accounts for suspicious activity

3. Be cautious of any unsolicited communications that ask for your personal information or refer you to a web page asking for personal information

4. Avoid clicking on links or downloading attachments from suspicious emails

5. Consider using Yahoo Account Key, a simple authentication tool that eliminates the need to use a password on Yahoo altogether.

Also, account owners are encouraged to visit the Safety Center page on the Yahoo website for further recommendations on how to stay secure online.
