Protect Yourself Online

The brief take-over of INEC's official website by hackers, brought with it, a rude awakening of the presence of serious minded and desperate hackers amongst us. The Nigerian government needs to pay attention and assign resources to combat Cyber- terrorism, just like the US has done.
