Some Safety Tips to Consider While Using Public Wi-Fi
Free Wi-Fi can sometimes be an extremely delightful blessing, but it can also be a curse when the safety of your data is concerned. However, there are some safety tips to consider when using public Wi-Fi to help protect your data better.
So, below are some safety tips for using a public Wi-Fi.
1). Before Connecting Turn Off File Sharing
When using public Wi-Fi it is best to turn off all file sharing and restrict access to your computer by disabling remote login from other computers in your network. This is to prevent easy access to your data and keep your data protected. You can also turn off network discovery to prevent others from seeing your device on the network. All these can be done through the control panel (for Windows) or system preferences (Mac) of your computer.
2). Turn Off Wi-Fi When not in Use
One of the basic rules of using untrusted networks is to switch it off when you’re done using it. It’s a great security habits that also helps save your battery. You can make things easier for yourself by downloading the offline version of whatever it is you're working on so you don’t have to stay online for long periods on an untrusted network.
3). Keep Your Antivirus and Antimalware Up to Date
If you know you are inclined to using public Wi-Fi networks on your device, it is best to ensure your device is running on a good and up to date antimalware utility and antivirus utility. Whatever antimalware or antivirus you choose to use just ensure it’s a good one, it’s up to date and you keep it running especially when using public Wi-Fi.
4). Install Privacy-Protecting Browser Extensions
Privacy-protecting browser extensions are tools that will help to fortify your browser. These privacy-protecting browser extensions gives you more control over your browsing experience and helps you lock out anything you need to, in addition to protecting you from network attacks like session hijacking and clickjacking.
5). Use Your Own Wi-Fi Instead
Your best protection from the dangers of public Wi-Fi is to simply not use it. Whether you’re using mobile hotspot or tethering the network from your smartphone, using your personal Wi-Fi offers you the safest browsing experience – much safer than the use of public Wi-Fi.

The Commandant of NSCDC i the state, Mr Lawan Bashir-Kano, disclosed yesterday in Lafia that the suspect, Jonathan Ibrahim, was arrested on July 17th.
He said that Ibrahim, who hails from Iwashi village in Doma Local Government Area of the state, was arrested following complaint about his activities from members of the public.
Bashir-Kano said preliminary investigations revealed that the suspect, who operates an unregistered clinic, last year, transfused contaminated blood to the 6-year-old boy, thereby infecting him with HIV.
He said the parents of the boy recently discovered that he had been infected with the virus.
He added that tests carried out on the lad in Lafia following frequent illness showed that he was HIV positive.
The commandant said the suspect had confessed to running an illegal clinic and transfused unscreened blood to the patient in question at his facility last year.
Bashir-Kano said the command, in collaboration with the state Ministry of Health, as well as the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria in the state would ensure that the suspect was prosecuted.
“If such persons are not made to face the wrath of the law, there would be increased cases of untimely death occasioned by fake medical treatment,” he said.
The commandant called on members of the public to be vigilant and wary of fake medical practitioners. He added that they should report any suspicious medical personnel or outfit to security agencies for action.
The suspect who told newsmen he graduated from the School of Health Technology, Keffi as an environmental health officer, confessed that he had no license to operate the clinic.

Nnamdi Kanu Says Federal Government Offered Him Biafra Republic Without Rivers, Benue
He also said he rejected it because that did not constitute the complete Biafra, saying that he told them that he wanted a Biafra with Rivers and Benue States inclusive.
Kanu also claimed that he was offered an oil block and mansion in Dubai aimed at making him to abandon the cause but that he rejected them and insisted on the actualization of Biafra.
The Biafra Leader said those things were Greek gifts to buy him over and maintained that he has no price other than to actualize the restoration of Biafra Republic and liberate the Igbo.
“They gave me Biafra in prison with only the five Igbo states; I said no, I want Benue and Rivers”, Kanu said, pointing out that “Biafra is coming, there is nothing to stop it”.

New Law That Will Separate NFIU and EFCC Set To Be Pass By Nigeria Senates
The Nigerian Senate has resolved to pass a law that would make the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit, NFIU, independent of the anti-graft agency, EFCC.
Nigeria lawmakers today based their decision on the reported suspension of the NFIU from the Egmont Group.
The NFIU helps tackle money laundering and monitor financial flows, task eased by its membership of the Egmont Group whose members share intelligence relating to international finance and illicit flow.
Critics of separating the NFIU from the EFCC have said it would weaken the anti-graft agency which has tackling financial crimes as one of its main task.

Robot Security Guard 'Commits Suicide' After a Few Days on Job
The robot committed suicide by drowning itself a public fountain after just a few days on the job.
The Knightscope K5 robot, which bears a striking resemblance to a Dalek, had been brought in to patrol the area outside the Georgetown Waterfront shopping centre and office complex in Washington DC.
It was found face-down in the fountain on Monday afternoon, after apparently tumbling down some steps into the water.
The K5 robot stands about 5 feet tall, weighs 300lbs (over 21 stone), and has a maximum speed of 18 miles per hour - although it usually moves at 1 to 3 miles per hour. Knightscope claims the security robot is better than a human guard, because it never gets bored of its job.
It is equipped with a range of sensors - including a 360-degree camera, thermal imaging sensors, a laser range finder and radar - which are supposed to enable it to move around autonomously.
It is designed to prevent crime by detecting abnormal noises and temperature changes, scanning car number plates and checking them against a police database, and using facial recognition technology to spot known criminals.
If it detects any security threats, it can squeak, whistle and make other loud noises intended to scare off criminals, as well as alerting the local authorities.

Man Got Remanded In Prison For Rapidly Employer’s Wife
A Magistrates Court based in Ikeja, Lagos State has today ordered a 38-year-old man, Tunde Bankole, remanded in Kirikiri Prison for raping his employer’s wife.
The Police Prosecutor, Insp. Raji Akeem, told the court that the accused committed the offences on May 28 at the home of the complainant. He alleged that Bankole forcefully had carnal knowledge of the woman at her home in Agege, near Lagos.
Akeem said that the rape victim had explained that her husband had informed her that he would be coming home late and that she left their gate unlocked for her husband to enter when he returned.
The prosecutor explained further that the woman was in a room when she heard Bankole knocking at her door.
Akeem said that the woman, who thought Bankole had returned with her husband, opened the door for him and was shocked to find the accused holding two knives.
“The complainant said that Bankole threatened to stab her with the knives if she did not allow him to make love to her.
“She said that the accused forcefully had carnal knowledge of her without her consent and also took her gold wedding ring, valued at N150, 000 from her.
“The complainant said that when she tried to escape, the accused brought out charms from his pocket and told her to swear not to tell her husband about the incident that took place.
“She said that when the accused finally left her, she quickly called her husband and told him how the accused had raped her.
“The complainant’s husband quickly notified the police and the accused was arrested,” Akeem said.
Akeem said that the offences contravened Section 57, 287 and 260 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.
Bankole, however, pleaded not guilty to the three-count of threatening with violence, stealing and rape.
The Magistrate, Mr T.O. Shomade, turned down the bail application of the accused and ordered him to be kept behind bars until the next hearing of the matter.
Shomade adjourned the case until July 26 for the hearing of the bail application.
Section 260 prescribes 14-year jail term upon conviction for rape.
