Following the recent uproar over a Buhari's minister's pledge of allegiance to Atiku Abubakar , writer, Ethelbert Okere analysis the unpredictable allegiance. Ever since he formally declared the restructuring debate open, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has taken the center stage on national discourse. As against expectations in some quarters, the restructuring issue has seized the entire nation with the former vice president playing a role that looks like that of a moderator.

New Tech Charges Your Phone With Salt Water

The Swedish's startup MyFC reveals its new technology, JAQ , earlier this year. The device, which is small enough to fit in your back pocket is said to be a fuel cell charger. It uses saltwater and oxygen to convert chemical energy into electricity. Then uses that electricity to charge your phone's battery. The charger consists of a credit card-shaped "Power Card" and a hollowed out port that's roughly the size of a smartphone. This power card contains saltwater, which fuels electricity-producing chemical reactions when you slip the card into the port.
