The fourth basic need of life

Today, one is tempted to say that the basic needs of life are food, clothes, shelter and telecommunications. Yes , this is because telecommunications has become an integral part of our lives that we cannot do without. Many would say, ‘without my mobile device or Pc I fill empty and not in the world.’ Others lament, ‘how have we been living in time past without telecommunications?’ A very true question indeed because today telecommunications affects all aspect of our lives from business, work, economy, politics, health, transportation, transaction, relationship to pleasure, love, hobby, networking e.t.c.
A school of thought even regards the internet as one of man’s greatest inventions.  This is a statement of fact because the internet  offers everything you can think of. It has made telecommunications become a need and necessity that we cannot do without. Before, telecommunications was predominantly voice communications until the advent of the internet which brought about a more robust method of communications called data communications.  As it were, data communications has revolutionize the telecommunications industry of the world. Data communications has transformed telecommunications into a basic need life with its vastness, converting farness to nearness thus making the world a global village.

Can Nokia stand on its feet again

For many years, Nokia remained the unrivaled king of the Smartphone mobile industry as it roled out phones that suit consumers needs. Well known for its ruggedness and battery strength, this made Nokia a brand to recon with any day, any time.
However, as time went by, the smartphone manufacturers market became a very competitive one. Rivalry smartphone manufacturing companies like Apple, RIM(Blackberry), LG, HTC, Infinix, Gionee, Samsung, Lenovo, Tecno continued to invest tireless effort into their products for improvement in order to give Nokia a run for its money.
Today, Nokia no longer lays claim to the number one spot in the global smartphone market, having been displaced by Apple Incorporated as the worldwide number one single manufacturer of smartphones by revenue, profit and volume.
Nokia has never been comfortable with losing the number one seat in smartphone manufacturing, therefore, in a bid to reclaim its position back, it is partnering with Microsoft to role out smartphones that work on windows operating system, hence the name windows phones. It already has Lumia 800 and 710 running on the latest 7.5 version of the Microsoft OS available in the market.
Whether this synergy between Nokia and Microsoft would help Nokia regain its lost glory as the number one smartphone manufacturing company in the world. Only time would tell!

Some distinguished areas in power supply

Despite the epileptic electricity situation of the nation, it might interest you to know that some areas still enjoy uninterrupted power supply that you wonder if these areas are still part of the country.About two-third areas of country suffer abject blackout with no hope of ever getting constant supply of electricity.
To mention but a few of these New york like areas are New Bussa in Niger state. Osogbo in Osun state, Agbara in Ogun state, Birnin Kebbi in Kebbi state Ijede in Lagos state, Aluu in Rivers state while areas like Ibadan, Ekiti, Aba, Choba, Warri, Surulere, Badagry and many more are in darkness. Infact the list is endless.
The irony of it all is that some of these areas in darkness are directly opposite or adjacent these areas with steady supply of electricity that you wonder again what is preventing the light from getting to them. Take for instance, Aluu and Choba towns in Rivers state are  directly opposite each other. Aluu enjoys steady electricity while Choba is in complete darkness. Similarly, Agbara and Badagry are adjacent each other but Agbara enjoys uninterrupted power supply while Badagry is in total blackout.
One peculair characteristic of these New york like areas is the presence of one electricity installation or the other to their advantage.
Osogbo for instance habors the GRID system. The GRID is a major power installation that connects all major generating stations and the load center. Osogbo enjoys steady supply of electricity as a result of this.
 Similarly, Kainji dam is situated in New Bussa. Kainji dam is the nation’s number one hydro-elecric generating station. New Bussa is the only town in Nigeria that enjoys electricity almost round the clock, courtesy Kainji dam.
Birnin Kebbi  has one the nation’s largest transimission stations. This stations is used to export power to countries like Niger Republic and others. Kebbi enjoys steady electricity as a result of this transimission station.
Also, Ijede in Ikorodu axis of Lagos state host the famous Egbin thermal station which contributes massively to the electricity requirement of the nation. Ijede enjoys stable electricity due to the presence of Egbin in its vinicity.
Agbara too has an injection station that caters for the industrial power needs of the area. This inturn benefits the Agbara town and environs. Electricity is remarkably stable at Agbara.
