YouTube to come down hard on rogue creators

YouTube is preparing to come down hard on rogue creators as the company has since responded by coming up with ways to deal with the problem in the future. Recently in a blog post penned by YouTube’s CEO Susan Wojcicki, suggested harsher punishments could be part of the platform’s plan to hopefully discourage such creators and content in the future. According to Wojcicki, “we’re also currently developing policies that would lead to consequences if a creator does something egregious that causes significant harm to our community as a whole. While these instances are rare, they can damage the reputation and revenue of your fellow creators, so we want to make sure we have policies in place that allow us to respond appropriately.” The post also talks about YouTube’s plan for 2018, which includes help people find more ways to engage with videos, and also to deal with handling demonetization and appeals, which YouTube admits could be more efficient.

Wenger reveals why Arsenal made Ozil second highest-paid EPL player

Arsenal boss, Arsene Wenger, has defended the club’s decision to shatter the club’s wage structure to keep Mesut Ozil, calling it “the cheapest option”. Ozil signed a new three-and-a-half year contract worth £300,000 a week, making him the Premier League’s second-highest paid player behind Alexis Sanchez , who left Arsenal for Manchester United in January. Before now, Sanchez and Ozil were the best-paid players on around £140,000 a week last season. “First of all, when we let a player go we have to buy somebody of the same calibre. And if you add the transfer needed – the wages [for the new player] will be similar, but on top of that we have to pay a transfer [fee]. So overall, Ozil was for us the cheapest option,” Wenger said. New boys Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Henrikh Mkhitaryan both signed deals reportedly worth £180,000 a week, which was an Arsenal record until Ozil penned his new deal. But Wenger insisted that he had no problem with paying such high salaries, as long...

Obahiagbon stated this on Friday, when he appeared as a guest on Channels Television Programme, Politics Today.He ,however, pointed out that the APC administration has not achieved all promised.’ “It is certainly not Eureka yet. But, the truth of the matter is that, given where we are coming from, this government has tried.

Obahiagbon added that President Buhari and the APC government had discharged their constitutional mandate “in such a way and manner that they deserve a second term outing.” However, on the issue of handling security challenges, Obahiagbon urged Buhari to be more proactive.“On the is...

10 Things You Should Really Ask A University, If You Want To Study Abroad

It can be easy to simply ask about the scholarship  opportunities a university offers. However, institutions receive hundreds of such enquiries, so your message won’t stand out. The more unique or personalized your question or enquiry, the more likely it will resonate with the university staff member who reads it; it will be something different from what they see normally. There are a lot of other things you should be asking. Just think of everything which you would want to know about a university you might be studying at (especially one in a completely different country from your own). So what should you ask? ‘Where can I live?’ Do you know what accommodation the institution offers? Is this accommodation on or off-campus? How expensive is this accommodation and what’s included? Are you guaranteed a place in on-campus accommodation in your first year? What support is there to find accommodation off-campus? ‘What’s the international student body like?’ What proportion of st...

Donald Trump issues a statement to African leaders after “shithole” comment

African leaders decided to refrain from issuing a resolution to criticise Donald Trump’s alleged reference to their nations as “shithole countries” because the U.S. president sent them a letter expressing respect for the continent. The leaders who met at an African Union summit in the Ethiopian capital were initially set to demand an apology from Trump over the remark reported by sources at a meeting on immigration with him this month. Trump denies making the comment. Reports of the comment touched a nerve because they come on top of decisions by the Trump administration, particularly on visa restrictions, that many Africans say unfairly penalise the continent. As the summit was being held at ministerial level, the gathering drafted a resolution calling on Trump to “publicly apologise to all Africans”. Anything short of that would force them to suspend a cooperation deal signed between Washington and the bloc, a draft seen by Reuters showed. African leaders are “dismay...
