Hackers Hack NBS Website
A visit to the NBS’s website reveals ‘Page Hacked’ on an otherwise blank page.
The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) has confirmed that its official website has been hacked by cybercriminals.
NBS, in a post published on X early on Thursday, December 19, 2024 urged members of the public to ignore any report published on its website until it recovers the website.
It claimed that the hackers did it barely 24 hours after the agency published a report on the payment of N2.2 trillion as ransom by Nigerians to kidnappers in one year.
In the report, the bureau indicated that an estimated 51.89 million crime incidents were recorded across Nigerian households during the period.
A few hours after the report, hackers compromised the website of the agency.
