New Age: BlackBerry CEO says the worst is over

By

BlackBerry Chief Executive John Chen said the company has found the low-point of its turnaround after second-quarter revenue plummeted and smartphone shipments hit their lowest since at least 2007.
Chen reassured investors he'll bring in $500 million in software revenue by March 2016 and stabilize shrinking device sales with the help of a new phone called the "Priv" that runs Google Inc.'s Android operating system. Total revenue will rise slightly next quarter, the CEO said on a conference call Friday.

Chen spoke after Waterloo, Ontario-based BlackBerry reported a loss of 13 cents per share, excluding some items, in the period ended Aug. 29. Analysts had projected a loss of 9 cents a share, the average of 22 estimates compiled by Bloomberg.

2017 Christmas Galore In Nigeria

By
Xmas is a time where people show love and share gifts. But in Nigeria, everyone wants to spend money and hang out. Especially the women. Around this time, the craze for Brazillian Hairs is paramount. Some of the hairs cost $2000 (N600,000) and they ask for it like it's nothing. Imagine how that cash can change a life! For the guys, they run away from the girls and call-off relationships. LOL. With what the recession has caused, am pretty sure the girls will have the upperhand this Xmas.
