Nigeria accuses Canada, Twitter of double standards for branding truckers protest insurrection
07:10pm, Sunday, 13'th Feb 2022 Ripples Nigeria
The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, on Sunday accused the Canadian government and micro-blogging platform, Twitter, of double standards in the handling of the truckers protest in the country. Promoters of truckers protest are challenging the COVID-19 restrictions in Canada. The Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, in a televised address in Ottawa described the action of the protesters as unacceptable and asked the police to control the situation. He said: This unlawful activity has to end and it will end. However, it is up to the police to enforce the law and protect public order. Twitter had since suspended the accounts of the truckers. Mohammed, who reacted to the development at a media briefing in Abuja, knocked Canada and Canada over their different perception of protests in Nigeria and the North America nation. He recalled how the Canadian government condemned the Federal Governments handling of the 2020 #ENDSARS in the country. The minister said: Recall, gentlemen, that during the #ENDSARS protest, which culminated in the blockage of public roads and massive destruction of government and private property, Canada was one of the countries that spoke out in support of the protesters. Recall also that Twitter actively supported the #ENDSARS protesters and even helped them to raise funds while GoFundMe was used to raise funds for the protests. This is similar to what played out during the January 6th, 2021 insurrection at the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. where those involved are either still being investigated or have been charged to court.

Cent marketplace suspends most NFT sales, citing ‘rampant’ fakes and plagiarism
01:06am, Sunday, 13'th Feb 2022 Rappler
LONDON, United Kingdom – The platform which sold an NFT of Jack Dorsey’s first tweet for $2.9 million has halted most transactions because people were selling tokens of content that did not belong to them, its founder said, calling this a “fundamental problem” in the fast-growing digital assets market. Sales of NFTs, or non-fungible tokens, soared to around $25 billion in 2021, leaving many baffled as to why so much money is being spent on items that do not physically exist and which anyone can view online for free. NFTs are crypto assets that record the ownership of a digital file such as an image, video or text. Anyone can create, or “mint”, an NFT, and ownership of the token does not usually confer ownership of the underlying item. Reports of scams, counterfeits and “wash trading” have become commonplace.
