My phone is my office –Ara, drummer

 

 

 

What other things do you use your phone for apart from calling, texting and browsing the Internet?

I take pictures a lot because I love them. As a musician and songwriter, I also use it to record audios and videos a lot. Anytime I get an inspiration, I quickly take out my phone to record so I would remember later. I also send and receive emails on my phone. I also watch movies on my phone and lastly, I use it to check calendar and schedule appointments.

I also like a phone which I can easily use to take notes and lastly, I like a phone which can record clear audio and video messages, especially as my job requires me interviewing people a lot. My phone is simply my office. I’m not really a social media person, though I try to post once in a while on Facebook.

No, I’m notWe are talking about turning your phone into a home security camera due to insecurity in the country. What security tips would you offer Nigerians?

 

Always make sure you have airtime on your phone just in case of an emergency. You will be able to contact your family and friends in such an instance. Also, when you are somewhere and you perceive something is wrong, perhaps a suspicious movement of someone or some people, quickly take a picture and send it to the appropriate quarters. But when you want to take such a picture, be careful you are not noticed. If you are in danger, you can quickly record an audio on your phone asking for help and send to a family or friend. You can also record a video message and upload to the appropriate quarters. We must just be security conscious, especially in the face of terrorism and kidnapping we are facing in the country right now
