Nobody can hack into INEC database – Jega
The Independent National Electoral Commission has stated
that its database cannot be hacked into by anybody.
The commission however stated that if that happened, there
must be an insider collaboration.
The chairman of INEC, Prof. Attahiru Jega, said this on
Wednesday during a programme, ‘Straight Talk with Kadara’,
monitored on Channels Television in Abuja.
He added that he was prepared to return to the classroom
as a university teacher in June after the general elections.
Jega was reacting to the allegation by the Department of
State Service that the opposition party, the All Progressives
Congress, had planned to hack into the database of the
commission.
“As far as I am concerned, our database cannot be hacked; if
that happens, then someone on the inside must have
compromised because we have in place checks and
balances that if such happens, we will know who did it”, he
said.
Jega also challenged APC leaders to substantiate their
allegation that some people were trying to clone card
readers for the election, a development he said, was
impossible.
The INEC chairman said, “They are obligated to investigate
any information they receive on perpetration of a crime or
attempts to perpetrate a crime. So if they have information
that some people are trying to clone cards, they are
obligated to investigate it.
“Investigating whether a crime has occurred or has not
occurred is a different matter between whether the result of
that crime will affect the integrity of the process.
“I am confident that it is virtually impossible for anybody to
clone our cards; they can attempt but there is no way that,
using the card reader, somebody will come and clone cards
and vote on election day in February.”

you will end up confusing yourself. Last 3 years ago, two teens were arrested in south dakota U.S.A for hacking into personal private budget of an oil mogul just few blocks from his house, the Pc was not internet connected just a budgeting app yet was hacked and used against him. So this your grammar won't help u

Change2015:


In case you are not aware, this is in response to the ridiculous claim that the apc in lagos wanted to hack the inec database. The inec database is not online, and the apc office as well was not online, their computers had USB ports disabled to prevent data theft. So perhaps the DSS will explain how the hacking was to happen, when both offices keep their dbs inaccessible via the Internet.

Listen to yourself. Did you read the write-up at all, He stated clearly that it could be possible if an insider has a hand in it. So use your 3 senses, can't Apc offer an insider 4Billion naira just to hack into the site?? They might even hire a graduatE from MIT. My bro leave matter for mattayas

aresa:


How was this done without internet connection?

aresa:



What site?

hyfr:
its bewildering that you don't know wonders of sci & tech in this modern world of ours. I got this news last 3 years or so. The teens just camped few blocks away from his location to get access to it, now tell me how does your computer receive virus even though its not connected to Internet. The two of them are MIT students, the man has employed the two guys now

hyfr:
straight to point Jega admitted that it could be hacked with the help of an insider

aresa:


You said site, but database is not a website

aresa:



Again how was this done? By magic or abracadabra?

aresa:


You said site, but database is not a website
