Vidhance video enhancement technology on NOTE 7

Vidhance, a prominent software developed by Imint, a Swedish company that originally developed the technology for military grade aerial shots, acts as the behind-the-scene hero and gives NOTE 7’s already impressive camera capabilities this powerful boost. It has a host of advanced algorithms that can be applied to cameras to enhance the quality of videography produced.

Its Video Stabilization encourages users to roam around and feel liberated, safe in the knowledge that the stabilization completely removes unintentional motion while only keeping the intentional parts – and all in real time.

Hong Ke, product senior director of Infinix Mobile, shared on his thoughts on the exciting partnership and its potential to spark inspirations within consumers, “Infinix is committed to providing great smartphone experiences with the industry’s latest innovative technology. Our partnership with Imint via the integration of Vidhance is testament to how deeply consumers can be inspired by unparalleled video enhancement technology to create fantastic visual experiences. We are looking forward to closely collaborating with Imint to spark more creativity in the future.”

Imint continues to redefine how people experience video on the devices they use most. “Smartphones and video are ubiquitous in modern life, whether for sharing through social media, or real-time communication. As video-based content creation and communication continue their proliferation, we are developing tools that will unleash the next wave of creativity and human connection.” commented Andreas Lifvendahl, Chief Executive Officer of Imint.

The addition of Vidhance software greatly elevates the quality of the produced content and creates an even better end-user camera experience on NOTE 7, allowing visually-oriented users to indulge in a world of creativity.

NOTE 7’s Slow Motion Function Gives Users the Chance to Experience Even More of Life’s Beauty

NOTE 7 is equipped with the ability to take slow motion videography, which allows users to bear witness to incredible events that they never would have been able to see themselves, such as the spray of rainbow-tinted liquid as a bubble pops, or the surface tension of water wrapping around a fish as it emerges from a pond.

Slow motion has the ability to create more emotional and romantic videography, as it allows hyper focus on only a few seconds of reality. In an increasingly fast-paced world, with NOTE 7 slow motion video function, users will find it refreshing to slow things down and appreciate life’s beauty for a few seconds.

Users will no doubt be inspired by their ‘newly-developed’ shooting ability to capture scenes and moments even in notoriously difficult situations thanks to NOTE 7. The NOTE 7’s video camera lens acts as a window to the future of creativity and opens the door to previously untold possibilities, just as Infinix has always aimed to bring “the future” to its consumers living in the “now”.

Usain Bolt welcomes

Olympic sprint legend Usain Bolt has become a father for the first time after welcoming the birth of a baby girl with partner Kasi Bennett.

Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness appeared to confirm the birth of Bolt’s daughter in a social media post.

“Congratulations to our sprint legend Usain Bolt and Kasi Bennett on the arrival of their baby girl!” Holness wrote on Twitter.

Local media reports said the couple’s daughter was born on Sunday.

No further details were immediately available.

Bolt, 33, had revealed he was expecting a daughter with Bennett on social media in March, jokingly warning any future suitors to steer clear of his daughter.

“Any man! Any boy! Don’t play with me!” the eight-time Olympic gold medallist quipped.

Bolt, the world record holder at 100m and 200m, retired from athletics in 2017 after a decade of dominance in men’s sprinting.

At the 2016 Olympics, Bolt became the only man to win the 100m and 200m titles at three consecutive Olympics.

Dr Gaelle Nnanga, who was called to treat Ndifor after he started suffering severe respiratory difficulties a week after falling ill with the virus, said the pastor died ten minutes after treatment.

The Governor of the coastal region said a police force had to be deployed when supporters blocked the entrance to his home and claimed the pastor was on a spiritual retreat with God so could not be buried.

Twilight fans are mourning the death of Gregory Tyree Boyce, 30, and his Nigerian girlfriend Natalie Adepoju, 27, after they were mysteriously found dead in their condo in Las Vegas.

Tife and Sansa: The once upon a time perfect Nigerian Twitter love story that’s gone sour (Details)

Tife and Sansa

If you’re an ardent Nigerian Twitter user, you probably musta known about the beautiful love story that once was Tife and Sansa.

The pair were probably everything you wanted in a couple, with how they were always serving goals on social media, professing their love for each other and promising a happily forever after.

Yup, this was basically how they were, in a nutshell

So it definitely came as a surprise and a trending topic when it was discovered that their “perfect” relationship had hit the rocks on the basis of infidelity from one party, rape, abuse, infidelity too on the other party.

The couple have been trending on the microblogging platform lately as a lot of people are still in awe over the situation and most reacting to the circumstances that led to their breakup.

The whole drama began when Boluwatife Fabunmi @tife_fabunmi took demeaning swipes at his significant other, Sansa Oroboghene @_Oroboghene on the timeline saying things like “he’s had his share of her, he’s not having sex with her again” and when a follower referenced them for relationship goals, he asked why the follower was “cursing” him.

All these —which a lot of people later deemed immature— led people to realizing that something was wrong with the couple’s relationship.

This then triggered reactions from tweeps who wanted to know what was up with the couple’s relationship. With little or no reaction from either of the couple, it led people to believe that speculations of their relationship hitting the rocks were true.

It then became a trend on the platform and this prompted Sansa to react to it with a thread detailing what went down in their relationship which led to them breaking up.

Tife and Sansa
Tife Fabunmi.

Sansa was not favourably disposed to airing details of her relationship to the public but when the matter was seemingly getting out of hand, she had to say something.

According to Sansa’s narrative, she was the one who broke up with Tife, even though people felt it was the other way round, she claimed that the Twitter influencer, in course of their relationship was an abuser, a rapist, a blackmailer and so on.

One time, before the whole messy drama, Sansa suffered a nude leak on the platform — a rather embarrassing situation which she’ll later come to discover and claim was perpetrated by her ex, Tife.

She eventually found the courage to leave the relationship —about two months ago— because of the abuse that she faced in it. Even when Tife begged for her to come back to him, she didn’t because she was scared for her life.

Sansa went on to reveal that she was thrown into an emotional roller coaster over the whole situation as she suffered from anxiety, paranoia, PTSD and all. She then points out blatantly that she never cheated on Tife and only loved him as best as she could.

She wrote,

“All the lies, rumours about me that have been going on? That I cheated? That he broke up? All lies started by him? He broke up? He broke up? Lmmmaaoooo! I left his fxcking abusive a**!

“He kept asking me to come back but I could not go back because I was scared for my life!!! I was legit f*cking scared that if I let myself believe he’d changed, I’d never be able to get out again.

“The hell I’be been through! The subs! The stalking! The trolling! The body shaming and slut shaming! The hate mails! The depression! Suicidal thoughts and attempts! The anxiety! Paranoia! PTSD!

Tife and Sansa
Sansa.

“I have held my peace, while my abuser pranced around spoiling my name orchestrating Tl drags! Claiming to be the better person!

“Held my peace yesterday when all the lies swarm around about me!! What did I f*cking do to you guys? Because I made my relationship public knowledge? Did y’all f*cking think you actually knew what was going on in the relationship?

*You had no idea! You had no f*cking idea!!! I have held my peace! I have been silent!! Because these whole thing is too big a mess! Too much than any of you can understand! Now I have my face pasted on gossip blogs and labeled a cheater? This is the last straw! The last goddamn strong! I am done!

“I am done keeping quiet and hiding off the Tl while I deal with my pain in private. You people wanted a story? There it is!

“I NEVER CHEATED ON ANYONE WITH ANYBODY, MALE OR FEMALE. I only ever loved Boluwatife Fabunmi And was there for him as best as I knew how to. What did I get in return?

“I was shamed! Ridiculed! Abused! Blackmailed! Raped! Disrespected! Cheated on! Over and over in the relationship until I finally found the strength to leave and ever since I left, I have been haunted! Tormented!

*Enough is enough! Get off my back! Get off my f*cking back! Gosh! I hate this place! I don’t want your belief or stinky fake sympathy! I don’t expect my assaulter to accept any of these truths but he will always know, as I will always know who the only person who speaks any truth is.

“I’m not a victim. I’m a survivor. I survived him and yes, now I’m having a mental break down so go ahead. Have a field day but get off my f*cking back!”

Few moments after her thread, Tife then took to his page to simply state that all her claims were untrue and in light of the derogatory saga, he’ll be taken legal actions soon.

He wrote,

In view of the recent accusations against me by OROBOGHENE COMFORT who happens to be my Ex-girlfriend, I stand to refute these claims stating that they’re totally Untrue and all in a bid to ruin my reputation

I will be taking necessary Legal steps to Clear my name.

Their whole story has left a lot of people in awe as to how what seemed like the perfect relationship met a really bitter and sour end.

The couple are still trending on the microblogging platform as at the time of filing this post.

Nigerian soldier who showed off his amazing “leg work” dancing skills has allegedly been arrested

According to reports, the Nigerian soldier who featured in a viral video where he was impressively doing the ‘leg work’ dance, has allegedly been arrested.

A Twitter user, @GhenhisKhan recently alleges that the officer has now been arrested. Singer, Wurld also reacted, requesting for his release with a hashtag #FreeNAFOfficer.

“The song “MAD” by @thisisWurlD feat SARS, got futher free publicity because of the military guy (NAF), who was dancing to it, although the song is very “Sweet” and of international standard. We have been told the the military guy has been arrested.” the Twitter user wrote.

He continued while tagging the Nigerian Army;

“All I see is a combatant fancing away his stress at the front while keeping Nigeria safe from Boko Haram and other forms of insecurity. It is plain madness for anyone to arrest him for dancing to a tune that said “dealing with my stress and your stress and you know”

@thisisWurlD @HQNigerianArmy @DefenceInfoNG if it is indeed true that you arrested this officer for this then it is important that you release him immediately.

His mere dancing to this tune has earned @thisisWurlD 1.3m views on @YouTube“

Fast rising singer Wurld also got a DM asking him to speak up for the officer. See Wurld’s reaction below….

Olori Prophetess Naomi has reacted to rumors that her marriage to the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has crashed.

In a statement she made via her Instagram, the Olori shut down those rumors and revealed her marriage was still rock solid and going well.

Read her press statement below

There have been strange rumours and unfounded news making rounds on social media in recent times.I want all believers of good news to know that, it is all lies and a picture of how the peddlers of the evil news would have loved our love story to turn out. I would have loved to maintain silence, however, due to concerns being expressed by well meaning people something has to be said. Now, the gospel truth is that I have been busy with ministry off the social media space and you’d all agree with me that with the ongoing pandemic which suddenly sprung up on all of us, only means more work needs to be done. I can’t sit still (as nobody privileged enough should) and this isn’t a time for social media presence but a time that calls for solemnity. Hence my break from what people now call normal. Finally, as duty will have me do, I have been in and out of the palace doing Gods bidding.With all being said, I am compelled to ask the following questions :
Why can’t people verify that which is the truth ?
Why do people believe more in falsehood and negativity?
Well, the bible has something to say about them in Psalm 2:1-12. Now i say to you all, please disregard and jettison every fake and malicious news about me and my husband (Ooni Adeyeye Babatunde Enitan Ogunwusi) for ours is a love no earthly force is strong enough to break,we are very fine and healthy

I will leave you with this “please be comforted and know that boredom is a killer and people do unimaginable things when they are” Peace and love always

Burna Boy gives the reason why he feels people hate him

Nigerian Afro-fusion singer, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, better known by his stage name, Burna Boy has given the reason why he feels people hate him.

The 29-year-old self-acclaimed African Giant says surely, people love him, but they hate him because he tells them what they need to hear and not what they want to hear.

He wrote on Snapchat,

“They Love me but they hate me, because I tell them what they need to hear and now what they want to hear”

Sometime in January, South African rapper, AKA revealed that he never hated Burna Boy — the two entertainers had an online back and forth as they had varying opinions on the xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in South Africa.

Their disagreement was one of 2019’s major celebrity rifts with AKA demanding an apology from Burna Boy as he asked the latter to prove that he is indeed the African Giant.

However, AKA came forward to say he does not hate Burna Boy.

I woke up angry today cos of a conversation I had before bed. Women are so strong. So OBVIOUSLY strong. You sweat blood for a spot at a table that disrespects your sweat. Then you spend EVERY SINGLE DAY convincing people you belong there. And the damn table isn’t even all that.

And when you say “Fuck it. My life, my rules.” They ask why. It’s because it never ends. Nothing is ever enough. And complaining is a waste of time. This is why most of the women that STAY winning have to win on their own terms. Ass-kissing is exhausting.

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome’s TV channel, ‘Loveworld News’ sanctioned by UK agency over Coronavirus and 5G conspiracy claims

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome’s TV Channel, Loveworld News has been sanctioned by UK broadcast regulator, Ofcom.

The sanction was imposed following the broadcast of Pastor Chris Oyakhilome’s unsubstantiated claim of 5G being the cause of the Coronavirus pandemic.

Last month, the founder of Loveworld Ministries had made an outrageous claim that the outbreak of Coronavirus is part of the plan for installation of 5G technology and creation of a one world order.shes.

In addition, the infamous Hydroxychloroquine was also presented on the Christian network as a “cure” for Covid-19, without acknowledging that its effectiveness and safety as a treatment was clinically unproven, or making clear that it has potentially serious side effects.

In a statement released on Monday May 18, Ofcom stressed that the unsubstantiated claims in both these programmes were not sufficiently put into context, they risked undermining viewers’ trust in official health advice, with potentially serious consequences for public health.

The statement read in parts;

“Loveworld News featured potentially harmful statements about the coronavirus pandemic and adequate protection was not provided to viewers. Additionally, statements were not presented with due accuracy.”

Ofcom said Loveworld which is broadcast on satellite in the UK, would be required to show a statement of the watchdog’s findings. The UK agency further stated that it is considering imposing further sanctions.

This is coming after London Live and radio station Uckfield FM were sanctioned for airing similar false claims without it being sufficiently challenged.

Meet Elizabeth: The stunning career woman who’s a lawyer by day and a nurse by night

The story of Elizabeth Owusua who accomplished her childhood dream of becoming both a nurse and a lawyer will definitely be one of the most inspiring stories emanating from West Africa in 2020.

A stunning Elizabeth, a Ghanaian damsel who now serves in both capacities, day and night, in an interview, revealed that during her childhood, she had the hopes of becoming a nurse, lawyer as well as a fashion designer.

She was, however, quick to state that her training at the Mfantsiman Girls helped shape her entire being greatly.

COVID-19 is a scam in Nigeria, they did not plan the drama before they went on stage – Discharged patient claims

A Nigerian lady who is among the recovered COVID-19 patients recently discharged in Delta State, has claimed that the virus is a scam in Nigeria.

The lady was reportedly diagnosed positive for COVID-19 on April 17.

She was then taken to the COVID-19 Isolation/Treatment Center in Warri where she was kept for 17 days. She was discharged after reportedly testing negative for the virus.

Following her ‘recovery and discharge’, the patient spoke to journalists and insisted that she never received or saw her COVID-19 test results. She claimed that COVID-19 is a scam in Nigeria because her family members who were in close contact with her were not infected.

In her words ;

“It was an audio result that I got. They called me to tell me that I was positive but did not give me any result. Before I was taken there I already said the virus is not in this country. We cannot curb its spread if it is in this nation. The disease may be in the western world, but not here. Keeping me there (Isolation Center) was against my wish.

“The markets are crowded; if it is here more people would have been affected. The banks are also crowded. It’s a scam in this nation. I am a witness. I have been there. I may have stayed at the isolation centre, but I do not see myself as a COVID-19 patient.

“My friend who was with me before I was admitted is living his normal life. He is fine. His test was negative. How about my family at home? When I was sick my mother was the one bathing me and even slept in the same room with me many times. She is almost 70 and still living her normal life. Imagine the close contact she had with me.

“They did not plan the drama before they went on stage. They would have quarantined my family. The reports that the doctors that attended to me were all tested positive for COVID-19 are all fabricated stories.”

Kidnappers of Islamic cleric, Akeugbagold’s twins paraded (Video)

A total of seven suspects who are linked to the kidnap of popular Oyo Islamic cleric, Sheik Taofeeq Akeugbagold’s twins have following their arrest, been paraded by the Oyo state’s police command.

A number of the apprehended suspects were discovered to be the Islamic cleric’s workers who used their relationship with him to thwart the initial effort of rescuing the twins.

The police command reportedly had to change their strategy to rescue the twins after they found out that information about the mission was being sabotaged.

Among those nabbed by the police include a security guard who gave out his gun to one of the gang members, a woman who took care of the twins and the man who monitored the Islamic cleric before his twins were kidnapped.

One of the suspects who identified himself as Tope and claimed to be innocent, said he never knew about the kidnap plan until one of the suspects —he identified as Bashiru— came back from Sokoto.

Tope claimed he was looking for a way to resolve the kidnap incident and also get the Islamic cleric to forgive the suspects, before being arrested.
