Chief of Air Staff, Sadiq Abubakar, has cautioned against the use of social media platforms as a tool for propagating hate speech and circulating false information. Mr. Abubakar said this on Tuesday, August 22, in Abuja during a workshop on information management for public relations officers in the Nigerian Air Force. According to Channels Television, the air chief explained that using the social media that way would jeopardise the development of Nigeria.:His words “We are all not unaware of the use of social media by some elements to spread falsehood in addition to promoting hate speech, violence, anarchy, and confusion in our society. “The message of hate and violence does not augur well for the development of our great nation. I, therefore, implore all relevant stakeholders to focus on the use of the social media to inform, educate and entertain as originally intended.”

9ice has revealed how he and Davido worked together to make his now banned song Living Things remix - He said Davido reached out to him first - He also added that he doesn’t like remixing his songs. When most heard that veteran musician 9ice had a song with rave of the moment Davido, many were excited. But how exactly did both of them end up working together? 9ice recently explained. The AAR records CEO revealed that he was in the US when a member of Davido’s team reached out to him saying he wanted to feature on the remix of the song Living Things. “I was in U.S then and one guy from Davido’s team told me that Davido will be happy to be in the remix of my song which is “Living Things” Remix. Then i said ok and he recorded it,” he told Tooxclusive. 9ice speaks on how Davido appeared on his hit song Living Things Singer 9ice (Image courtesy Instagram) Going further, 9ice also said he is not a fan of making remixes of his songs as he doesn’t need the input of any musician to ‘blow.’ “I don’t really love doing remix of my songs; I’m not a fan of remix. If you do remix of a song, that means you are not sure of what you sing in the original song.” Meanwhile, the song Living Things remix has been banned by the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission (NBC).

The National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) has refuted widespread media reports that it has banned five Nigerian songs having tagged them as “Not to be Broadcasted.” Premium Times reported on Tuesday that the Commission released a list, saying it has banned the five songs from being aired across the Nigerian airwaves. The songs, reportedly banned by NBC are Olamide‘s “Wo” and “Wavy Level“; Davido‘s “Fall” and “If (Remix)“; and 9ice’s “Living Things.” But in a chat with SIGNAL on Tuesday, Mrs. Maimuna Jimada, the NBC’s Head of Public Affairs said she was not aware of any such list emanating from the NBC. “First of all, the NBC does not ban songs. We only insist that broadcasters exercise a sense of responsibility in the kind of content they allow to go on air. So even if the NBC has placed such a restriction on any of these songs, it does not constitute a ban. They can still be played at nightclubs, streamed on the Internet, played at home and on people’s mobile devices. But I am not aware of the NBC releasing any list banning or putting a restriction on any of those five songs. It is also possible that one of our regional offices advised stations under their jurisdiction about these songs and it is now being misinterpreted as a ban. “If you look at the report, you would know there was something fishy about it because the NBC is the National Broadcasting Commission and not a “Corporation” as being reported by the media outlets disseminating the news”, Mrs. Jimada said. She however said she would need to double check again with her office to clarify the report which has already gone viral in the Nigerian media.

Talk about resilience and determination! Razak Iyal, a refugee who lost all his fingers to frostbite after walking into Canada on Christmas Eve, has now won his bid to stay in Canada. In December, Iyal and his friend, Seidu Mohammed (a bisexual Ghanaian man), walked through snowy farmers' fields to get to Manitoba, fearing deportation in the United States, where they had been living. "I'm happy because if I go back to Ghana, I might lose all my life. But here I am, I just lost my fingers, but I'm still part of the society. I can do a lot of things that the people who have the fingers can do," Iyal said. Iyal also revealed that he feared death at the hands of his own siblings, who he says are trying to kill him over a dispute regarding his late father's estate.He also says he was facing threats of jail, torture and possibly death from a powerful member of Parliament representing his region, and expressed further concern after Ghanaian media falsely identified him as a gay man for being friends with Mohammed.Iyal and Mohammed's harrowing story of survival attracted international attention and shone a light on the wave of asylum seekers fleeing the United States.

Two women suspected to be involved in artificially colouring oranges to boost their sales have been arrested for questioning and possible prosecution by the Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) in Ghana According to the FDA, the police conducted a raid at the Madina market last Tuesday after photos and video of a woman dipping oranges into a colouring solution was circulated on social media. In the viral video below, a woman can be visibly seen with two big bowls, one a colouring solution and the other full of ripe oranges. She then dipped the oranges in the solution and waits for some minutes for the fruit to turn deep yellow. It's believed the colour makes the fruit eye-pleasing enough to attract customers. However, FDA says the colouring is "suspicious" and have condemned the practice.
