Credit : gltrends

The most reliable and popular Chat Media “WhatsApp” is rolling out new features for Android users. The company has brought out the image doodling feature out of beta mode for public release. The feature enables users to doSnapchat-like drawing on photo and videos.

The update also allows Android users to add emojis to express themselves. The users just need to select a brush size or font style by dragging left on the colour selector. The new editing tools appear whenever a photo or video is shared (old as well as and new ones).


The feature is expected to be rolled out to Apple iOS users too soon.

The update also brings the ability to send multiple chats at once while sharing or forwarding messages. Users frequent contacts will appear on the top at the time of forwarding or sharing messages. Users can also slide their finger up or down to zoom in and out while recording videos.

Lastly, the popular instant messenger also gets a new front-facing flash for better selfies in low-light conditions.

Recently, WhatsApp quietly rolled out an update which allows people to tag others in WhatsApp Groups. The new tagging feature means that users may no longer be able to mute notifications in Groups. As in case, a user has been tagged, he or she will still receive the Group’s notification

To do this, users need to type in @, following which the names of the group members pop up. They can select the people that have to be tagged. Multiple users can be tagged and all of them are notified. Moreover, the feature also sends notifications to the people who are not in a user’s contact list but are part of a WhatsApp group. The update is available on both Android and iOS, but not on the desktop app. With the update, it seems that WhatsApp has closed all ways to avoid annoying group notifications. The only way out is to either turn off app notifications completely or leave the group.

Oshiomole's Legacy was Vital for Obaseki's Victory

Special Assistant to the Edo state Govenor on entertainment Roland Igbadumhe, has said that the unprecedented developmental accomplishment by out-going Gvernor Adams Oshomhole, won the election for All Progressives Congress, APC, candidate, Godwin Obaseki.




Roland Igbadumhe, aka ‘Youngest old man’ who is also a comedian spoke with newsmen in Benin,andsaid that the good work of APC led-government of Oshiomhole, spoke ‘eloquently’ during the campaign and at the election.

Roland described the eight-year tenure of Governor Oshiomhole as second to none in the South-South geo-political zone. He said: “You can go across the states, from Edo South through Edo Central to Edo North, the rural communities and see for yourself.

The Okpekpe people in Etsako were completely cut off from civilization and so were the people of Igbanke in Edo South before Oshiomhole came in. Those communities can now boast of good roads and even street lights courtesy of Oshiomhole, not to talk of the secondary and primary schools where pupils and students were forced to learn under tress as if they were in the Stone Age before the coming of Oshiomhole. Now, you can see the schools complete with modern facilities comparable to those in the United States.” and Europe. There is no one who will see these accomplishments and see vote for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, after their eight years of disaster.”

Sack CBN Gov, Emefiele Now – House of Rep Members Demand…Find Out Why

CBN Governor "Godwin Emefiele"

The house of rep has demanded for the sack of The current CBN Governon “Godwin Emefiele” whose wife was rescued from the hands of the kjdnappers recently .





In a motion entitled ‘Call for investigation of the Central Bank of Nigeria’s forex policies’, which was sponsored by Hon Ali Isa, some members of the federal house of representatives have today, October 5, called for the sack of the governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, and his entire team over the continuous fall of the naira at the parallel market.
Moving the motion of the sacking on the floor of the house, Isa said despite the weekly releases by the CBN to the Bureau de Change (BDCs) and the banks, the value of naira against the dollar had continued to depreciate.

According to TheCable News, Mojeed Alabi who contributed to the debate for the sacking of the CBN boss, expressed dismay that the CBN governor ignored several invitations to discuss some of the bank’s policies with the lower chamber.
“Over the falling of the naira, the CBN governor and his team should be sacked,” Alabi said.

While calling for the sack of the CBN governor, another lawmaker, Wale Raji, said Nigeria is the only country that quotes “black market” figures as officials.

“Who is in charge of our Forex CBN or the black market? This is the only country in the world where the black market rates are quoted on television. If Nigeria were to be a normal country, the CBN governor and his team should be sacked,” Raji said.

However, the minority leader of the house, Leo Ogor, kicked against the sack of the CBN governor, he said the legislature in conjunction with executive should find a solution to the problem. “The only thing we do is pay lip service,” he added.

The house resolved to set up an ad hoc committee to interact with the BDCs and other establishment that receive foreign exchange directly from the CBN, so that they can explain how they utilis the forex.

The house adopted the motion after it was put to a voice vote by Yakubu Dogara, the speaker.
