The online expression of enthusiasm is now in the dictionary. So are textspeak, sexting — and, less happily, cyberbullying.
They are among 400 new entries in the 12th edition of the Concise Oxford English Dictionary, published this month as disclosed by Editor angus stevenson
Another newcomer to the reference book's 24,000 entries is retweet — to repost another Twitter user's message.
Some of the new words describe forms of behavior and communication created by technology. There's cyberbullying, a form of online abuse, and textspeak, the abbreviated language used in cell phone messages. And, of course, sexting — sending explicit photos or messages by mobile phone.

1. Unasked for advice
Men are so clueless sometimes. Or at least that's what we tell ourselves. They can't find stuff, some of them can't dress for proper social presentation and others can barely keep clean without us. Our only choice is to tell him how to do things, right? Tuck in your shirt, don't wear those jeans, why would you want to hang out with someone like that, turn the toilet tissue roll over, are you really going to eat that, shouldn't you clean out the car? After all, we're just trying to help.
Here's the deal. Our dudes manage to be functional in the rest of their lives. They go to work and make it home without incident. Look at it this way; he somehow made it through the basics of life for X amount of years before he met you.

Tecno, a China-based phone manufacturing company and one of Nigeria’s top selling handset brand, is now in a copyright mess over the infringement of Nigerian musicians’ intellectual properties
Affected is Lanre Dabiri, popularly known as eLDee. Tecno, it was alleged, has preloaded different songs, some by Nigerian artistes, onto memory cards embedded in their phones sold without due consultation or permission from the artistes to use the songs. the company is not ready to compensate the acts whose rights were infringed upon.

It was said that instead of the company showing remorse by granting the artiste audience and trying to reach a consensus, it became adamant and arrogant, claiming that it was helping the artistes, including eLDee, to promote their songs and as a result, didn’t owe them a dime.
Following their recalcitrance, the artiste, through his lawyer, has instituted a suit in court. At one of the hearings, the presiding judge had ordered that eLDee and his lawyers should visit Tecno’s local agents and representatives and seize all the infringing phones they find and any documents related to them.
The Nigerian Copyright Commission (NCC) has also joined in the case and is investigating the matter

The Minister of Youths Development, Bolaji Abdullahi, has refuted claims that the federal government has endorsed the winner of the just concluded Big Brother Amplified (BBA), Karen Igho, as a youth ambassador.

His message below;
"What I see here is a rising tendency to be sexist in this country in a way that is not acceptable," he said. “I mean someone won this competition last year and he was hailed and hosted everywhere like if he was a hero. We didn’t know what he did in that house. Now, because Karen is a woman, therefore she is what? If it was a man that went into that programme and did all the escapades, will we be treating him like this?”
What we did as a Ministry of Youth Development when we were informed that they will like to visit us, I mean, we welcomed them," said Abdullahi. "That does not mean the same thing as endorsing whatever she did or did not do. No one mentioned anything about role modelling. Nobody mentioned anything about being an ambassador.

The minister was said to have called Bigbrother amplified winner karen igho a role model to Nigerian Youths
