A Twitter user found himself at the sharp end of online flack after he advertised a local dish with an intercontinental price.

The tweep known as Engr Ashile showed off a plate of eba and vegetable soup, and said it costs N43,620.

The dish had two mounds of eba and vegetable soup garnished with kpomo and assorted meat.



He claimed that it was his business and he asked interested customers to order so it can be delivered to their doorstep at N43, 620.

Ashile’s post, generated massive response but rather than the comments to be flooded with orders, many posed questions on what makes the meal so special for it to be sold at that amount.

Sharing a photo, he wrote;

Phones / Re: Lithuania Urges People To Throw Away Chinese Phones by Marcosabrus(m): 7:51am On Sep 23, 2021
Youhesh:
Consumers should throw away their Chinese phones and avoid buying new ones, Lithuania’s Defence Ministry has warned.

A report by its National Cyber Security Centre tested 5G mobiles from Chinese manufacturers.

Researchers identified that one Xiaomi phone had built-in censorship tools while another Huawei model could be vulnerable to cyber-attacks.

Huawei said no user data is sent externally. "Our recommendation is to not buy new Chinese phones, and to get rid of those already purchased as fast as reasonably possible," said Defence Deputy Minister Margiris Abukevicius.

Censorship
Xiaomi’s flagship Mi 10T 5G phone was found to have software that could detect and censor terms including “Free Tibet”, "Long live Taiwan independence" or "democracy movement", the report said.
It highlighted more than 449 terms that could be censored by the Xiaomi phone's system apps, including the default internet browser.


In Europe, this capability had been switched off on these models, but the report argued it could be remotely activated at any time.

Xiaomi has not responded to the BBC's request for comment. The research also found the Xiaomi device was transferring encrypted phone usage data to a server in Singapore.

"This is important not only to Lithuania but to all countries which use Xiaomi equipment," the Centre said.

The smartphone maker has soared in popularity with affordable models, seeing a 64% rise in revenue in its second quarter compared to a year earlier.

Huawei P40
The report also highlighted a flaw in Huawei’s P40 5G phone, which put users at risk of cyber-security breaches.

“The official Huawei application store AppGallery directs users to third-party e-stores where some of the applications have been assessed by anti-virus programs as malicious or infected with viruses,” a joint statement by the Lithuanian Ministry of Defence and its National Cyber Security Centre said.
