It was strange that @NITDANigeria required immediate compliance with its #NDPR, whereas EU had a 2yr period for #GDPR. Not surprising, many organisations aren't compliant and citizens aren't aware of their rights under NDPR- @SolomonOkedara

Private citizens whose privacy and other info-related rights could be violated ate a critical factor in enforcement. This is a key reason for a period of sensitization prior to implementation of #NDPR - @SolomonOkedara

From experience, citizens tend to sleep on their online-related rights. There was scepticism about our firm's strategic litigation on the Cybercrime Act a few years ago, before govt began using it to persecute opponents- @SolomonOkedara

Talking about the culture of factuality and Veracity, lack of a national ID system allows Nigerians play fast and loose with information, thus affecting data quality-- Emmanuel Agha (Innovectives Ltd) at @TheLodt's #BigData panel yesterday.

My #fintech company often engages in verification survey of data to avoid the 'AC Panelroom syndrome' of tech developers. Experience in local markets h/ever show that traders change info if you're perceived as coming from govt-Emmanuel Agha #BigData

Although a #fintech entrepreneur myself, I've noted violations of regulations & standards on customer information request. E.g. there're Nigerian apps which do not allow you onboard until location info is disclosed, which is wrong- Emmanuel Agha #BigData

Of the 5 'Vs' - Volume, Variety, Velocity, Veracity & Value - the most important is Value. What you can do with your info is the main gist of #BigData

#BigData assumes data in 'gazillions' of bytes. Nigeria hasn't arrived at that scale in data Volume yet, especially in externally generated Variety. H/ever, organisations should also plan to extract Value from internal Data- Prof. David West @LBSNigeria #SMWLagos2020
@TheLodt
Because of limited volume in externally generated data, the secondary market for #BigData is not yet a thing in Nigeria. Also, weak culture of factuality affects Veracity, and dearth of talent in data mining affects Value- Prof. David-West @LBSNigeria #SMWLagos2020

The most important magic trick I've ever learned in my career as a speaker:

How to convert opportunities into currency.

I'll share a glimpse into my process. Let's examine this:

(Thread)
#publicspeaking
What qualifies me to educate you on public speaking?

I created a globally respected brand within my niche known for grooming new speakers.

I organized, hosted, planned, or partnered 107 events in 2019.

I delivered keynotes, workshops, sessions at 52 events in 2019.
Public speaking is like being a musician.
You will be an unpaid amateur *forever* until you discover your own system to become a paid, working professional.

Years ago, the great Lisa Sasevich taught me a system to embrace speaking for free to grow your business..

Because I have a special fondness for @RepMarkMeadows beclowning himself, I want to point to this part of the Volker transcript. Meadows must be in the room as Scott Perry asks Volker a question.
@RepMarkMeadows One would think that Meadows is smart enough to understand that Perry is a Congressman. So if Perry can ask questions and have them answered, it means Members can ask questions.

One would think...
@RepMarkMeadows So @RepSwalwell points out the obvious to Meadows; You can ask questions.

Meadows bitches that Swalwell is using his time complaining he can't ask questions to point out he can ask questions. Another minute. "You can ask questions." Another minute. "You can ask questions."

Thread on how today I came out as a bisexual Shia to my Sunni family #BiPrideDay #LGBT #LGBTQts

I decided to make this thread after I saw @faaatimahhh on snapchat and was inspired to come out and made a twitter account
I grew up in Lebanon my family is Sunni, and are very conservative, I was raised as a Sunni, but later in high-school I fell in love with a beautiful shia lesbian girl from Iran. We both came out and told each other about our feelings but knew our families would never accept it
This would not stop us, we planned a way we could get married, there are some protections for LGBT in Lebanon but lots of ISIS extremists would target us if they found out. So we told our families we wanted to go study in America, she had it easy her family instantly let her, but

THREAD: Sometime in the next few weeks I'm expecting Apple to switch on its ECG function on its watch in the UK.
Apple is not ready to discuss how this device will be approved. Nor whether it has provided any data on its watch to the health services such as @NHSEngland that will have to handle patients.
Watch approval will *probably* be a CE mark as a class 2a medical device, granted by private firms known as notified bodies. These assess if a product sold meets certain standards. You have no right to information from this process.

(THREAD) BREAKING NEWS on CNN: Robert Mueller has offered to accept written answers from Trump on Russia, and won't ask for written answers on Obstruction. This news is DEVELOPING, but I'll offer a real-time legal analysis of it in this thread. I hope you'll read on and retweet.
1/ First, understand that this is not what Mueller wanted or wants. He wants multiple live interviews, preferably under oath (though legally that will make no significant difference, as you can't legally lie to the FBI) and with the ability for follow-up questions, on all topics.
2/ Part of Mueller's offer could be a calculation that a) a court battle over a subpoena would take many months and harm Americans' confidence in the probe, b) he could lose that battle with Kavanaugh on the bench, and c) Trump is going to lie in whatever format he is questioned.

THREAD: Will Mueller interview Trump? What will that interview look like? (Short answer: Expect live, not written, questions and answers.)
1/ This morning @NBCNews repotted that Trump’s legal team is preparing for Mueller to ask Trump for an interview and has come up with a number of requests that they’ll make of Mueller. nbcnews.com/politics/donal…
2/ Typically, someone in Trump’s position would take the Fifth instead of agreeing to an interview. Trump is under investigation, despite his statements to the contrary, and faces significant liability. Talking to Mueller can only hurt him.
