Twitter Ban: Anonymous Hackers Threaten To Take Down FG Websites

Anonymous Hackers, a group of unknown individuals, have threatened to take down the websites of the Nigerian government and its agencies.

This is in response to President Muhammadu Buhari’s decision to ban the use of Twitter in Nigeria indefinitely, according to NEWS DIRECT.

While threatening to take down the Ministry of Information and Culture’s websites, the group claimed that this was its own way of protesting Twitter’s indefinite ban.

In a statement on Saturday morning, Anonymous said, “As you might know, Twitter is banned in Nigeria, indefinitely. I’m letting you know that very very soon, the Nigerian Federal Ministry of Culture and Information website and database will be hacked.

“More Nigerian government websites will be targeted as a sign of protest against the ban.”

Remember that during the EndSARS protest, Anonymous was quite active, hacking official websites and social media accounts, including the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC).

The Nigerian Central Bank’s website was also hacked by the group (CBN).
