WHATSAPP   is rolling out a brand new feature that lets users delete messages they’re already sent. The WhatsApp update is being rolled out to the Facebook-owned messaging app’s more than one billion users.

         Now, what is it in the first place: Black Friday? The Black Friday is traditionally practiced in America a day following Thanksgiving day where items are sold for little to no price. Which later spread to other parts of Europe. Now it has become a global celebration where prices of products are slashed by half their prices, some products are even discounted to an all time low where you can get them for a ridiculously cheap price. It has been regarded as the beginning of the Christmas shopping season. Black Friday is not just any Friday, it is a unique day falls on the last Friday of every month in November in which most businesses record the best sales and profit ever. Not only that, but goods are extremely cheaper than what the eyes can see. I can't imagine myself getting a high-end smartphone that cost N260,000 for N130,000 or a laptop of N150,000 for just N75,000. It's too good to be real, but one of the best time of the year to get your desire...

About a month ago one of the lecturers...

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has postponed its mid-term national convention earlier schedule for November until the first quarter of 2018. This was confirmed by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi. However, the meetings of the party’s National Caucus and National Executive Committee (NEC) would still hold next week. He said: ”I can tell you that the convention is not going to take place until the first quarter of next year. There will not be any implosion or explosion because we are not going to invite Boko Haram to the convention. ”Let me emphasise that we have not decided on the date of the convention because we have to hold NEC meeting that will agree on a date and agenda for the convention.” Though no reason was given for this resolution, it is understood that it might be connected to the party’s funding challenge and the fear that the convention might be used to effect an unexpected leadership change. It would be recalled that the p...
