One of the last things most of us do before we go to sleep is plug our phones in to charge overnight, without giving it too much thought. But it turns out, you may need to be worried about this seemingly innocuous nightly ritual. There's a new phone charger recall that will have you double-checking yours tonight. Read on to find out which charger is being recalled due to a fire risk, and for more phone issues to be aware of, If You Have This on Your Phone, Delete It Now, Experts Warn.

A recall has been issued for three different phone chargers from Towsleys: the 3-in-1 Qi wireless chargers, power banks, and travel wall chargers, according to a notice issued by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) on Nov. 25. Towsleys has received four incident reports of these chargers and power banks overheating, posing a potential fire hazard. Two of the four reports did result in fires, with one user reporting $6,000 worth of property damage. Luckily, there are no known injuries so far.

The recall affects around 1,500 products "distributed to employees through a corporate redemption program," the CPSC notes. Corporate employees were able to use credits to redeem merchandise through Acuity Merch from Sept. 2019 to April 2020, which included these Towsleys chargers. The chargers were manufactured by Shenzhen Huani Electronics Co., Ltd in China.


According to the CPSC announcement, anyone with one of these phone chargers should stop using it and contact Towsleys for instructions on how to properly dispose of the recalled items. Consumers will also receive a credit from Towsleys for a free replacement charger.

But your cell phone charger isn't the only thing you need to watch out for these days. For more recent household recalls, read on, and for more risks to your furriest family members, beware that If You Feed Your Dog This, the FDA Says to Stop Immediately.

THE NEXT DECADE SKILLS IS HERE ACQUIRE IT!!

There was a time in Nigeria when all you needed to succeed was the ability to read and write English.

After that came the era of university degree.

In fact, you had the chances of getting a good job with a good salary.

Then came the era of Masters and PhD.

The demands of the Labour market went higher.

You had to have a masters or PhD to get a good job.

Before long it became the era of foreign degrees... employers started looking for people from foreign universities.

With alot of people getting certifications from unknown foreign universities.

Once the certificate is from abroad, people don't give a damn.

Even if it is from University of Sao Tome � �

Now that era has ended:

We are now in the era of skills.

What you know and what you can do with your brain or your hands.

Your level of education notwithstanding;

What matters right now is the skills that you have especially new age/digital skills.

So I ask you, what are you doing to remain relevant in your career?

Are you still carrying your certificate up and down with obsolete knowledge?

You need to LEARN, UNLEARN and RELEARN

The business world is evolving into ebusiness model, in the next decade 80% of all businesses will be online. You won't need the local Market; you shop online and have it delivered to your home, you won't need going to hospital, you have edoctors, epharmacies. You won't need Contemporary Schools; elearning will be the norms.

What this translates to is that, all these businesses will function with a Website or an App on playstore- or both. Web and App Developers will be in high demand, so don't be left behind.

Very insightful read but this is Nigeria, a country where Light is seen as a luxury so people would rather charge when they have the opportunity to.
