Device financing: How NuovoPay solves challenges for operators

Technology can serve as one of the great equalisers, opening equal opportunities to people across the world. This is especially true in the post-pandemic world – technology, and particularly mobile devices, have helped people to stay connected, education to be uninterrupted and businesses to stay afloat.
As we move towards a more smartphone-dependent world, device financing looks like a more lucrative and obvious choice to acquire the latest technology. Telecommunications carriers have been at the forefront of device financing but there are apprehensions preventing them from going all in.
The Bill will also increase punishments and fines for untrained journalists.
For persons with a first degree in other courses, the new Bill will demand that they obtain a postgraduate certificate in Journalism, Media Art, Communication or related field from any other higher institution in Nigeria or elsewhere.
Why this matters: The Nigerian Journalism space has been experiencing major shakeups in recent years. The media faces issues with fake news, dwindling revenues, and perceived creative government clampdowns.
The likely impact: Although there’s not much data to support this, this rule will likely affect more journalists playing in the online media space than in the print media. Some of the country’s biggest online media publications do not even have founders with journalism degrees, neither do they emphasise this when recruiting.

Twitter is looking for a few good misinformation debunkers.
The social-media company is launching a pilot program called “Birdwatch.” The volunteers chosen for the test will be tasked with identifying misleading or false information on Twitter and writing clear, concise notes that provide “context that people trust and find valuable.”
In its pitch to potential contributors, Twitter insists Birdwatch is “not a place for quick dunks, personal opinions or insults.”
