Third patient got a Neuralink brain implant. The work is part of a booming field-Elon Musk

Elon Musk addressed a campaign town hall in support of Republican presidential nominee and former President Donald Trump in Folsom, Pennsylvania, on Thursday, October 17, 2024. During a live-streamed interview at a Las Vegas event on his social media platform X, Musk announced that a third individual has received an implant from his brain-computer interface company, Neuralink, which is among several organizations working to link the nervous system with machines.

Fubara Wins In 22 out of The 23 Local Government Areas in Rivers State

Fubara regains control as APP wins 22 out of 23 chairmanship seats in RiversWith the exception of one, Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara's followers running as the Action Peoples Party (APP) won 23 chairperson posts, giving him back control of the Local Government structure.

The results were announced on Saturday night in Port Harcourt, the state capital, by Justice Adolphus Enebeli, Chief Election Officer of the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission.

After his supporters won the contentious Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) congress last month, Wike briefly assumed control of the local government system.

Still refusing to give up, Fubara ordered his supporters to switch to APP in order to run for office.

Fubara has been in a power tussle with the former Governor of Rivers State Nyesom Woke over who controls the state until now.
With this win Fubara may have proven his gripe on the state.
What do you think about this?
