Nokia 3310 is coming back! 15 February 2017,  Nokia will re-launch its popular 3310 mobile phone, perhaps the best-loved and most resilient phone in history. It will be revealed at Mobile World Congress later this month, according to Evan Blass, who first revealed the details. The phone was originally released in 2000 and in many ways beginning the modern age of mobiles. According to Independent , it will be sold as a way of getting lots of battery life in a nearly indestructible body. The new incarnation of the old 3310 will be sold for just €59 (about N23 000), and so likely be pitched as a reliable second phone to people who fondly remember it the first time around.

The Minister was speaking in an interview with the Sun in Lagos, where he noted that he did his job while in opposition with clear mind and did not attack any individual. Mohammed, who was the All Progressives Congress, APC’s mouthpiece, noted that the opposition will always attack him no matter what he did, since he played a major role in their downfall. His words, “I think anybody who occupies a public office should know that this sort of thing goes with the terrain. But probably what I was not prepared for was the viciou...
