2023: Foreign Hackers Attacking Our Database — INEC Chair by bestofnollywood: 11:46am On Jan 27, 2023
The chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Professor Mahmood Yakubu, has said there have been attempts to hack into the commission’s computer system ahead of the 2023 general elections.

Yakubu spoke on Thursday during the 2022 National Conference of the National Association of Judiciary Correspondents (NAJUC) in Abuja with the theme, ‘2023 General Elections; Judiciary and Sustainability of Nigeria’s Democracy.”


The INEC chairman who was represented by the deputy director of ICT, Dr Lawrence Bayode, said the attacks were from different parts of the world and not just Nigeria.

“We were looking at the system yesterday and we were seeing that people were trying to come into the system from France but we also are putting some things in place.



“You can’t build a house and you will not put a door, window or burglary; we have done our best to ensure that our system is secured,” Bayode said.

He said the surfaced vulnerabilities of the Bimodal Voter Registration System (BVAS), the INEC Result Viewing Portal (IReV) and the backend were well-secured to make it difficult to beat.


Bayode reiterated that there would be no voting without the permanent voter cards (PVC) and accreditation as provided in Section 47(1) of the Electoral Act, 2022.

Tinubu must take it easy oh.
Peter Obi's popularity is giving Tinubu and Atiku a sleepless night.
In the beginning, Apc & Pdp claim Obi doesn't have structure.
They said Obi doesn't have the cash to campaign in many states of the country.

Na so na... e dey their blood.. some of this our politicians the only way of winning to them is rigging.. if they don't rig they will pay for votes since they lack confidence in themselves. They made many of us poor so that they can keep coming with stipends during election cos they know a hunger person will eat.
