An unknown group
has shut down the website of the Central Bank of Nigeria,
https://www.cbn.gov.ng
It was the third cyber asset of the Nigerian government to be hit by the group, which declared it was sympathising with #EndSARS protesters in Nigeria.
The apex bank
website was unreachable on Friday night, as it repeatedly gave ‘server error.”
“500 –
Internal server error. There is a problem with the resource you are looking
for, and it cannot be displayed”, was the response loggers got.
Earlier
today, Anonymous seized the Twitter account of the National Broadcasting
Commission and posted a series of messages, derisive of government, but
supportive of the protesters.
It said it’s
out to “expose government’s secrets & dirty files”.
Up till
Friday night, the group was still in control of the Twitter account @nbcgovng.
The hackers
have also hacked a new Twitter account opened by the commission.
Also on
Friday, Anonymous hacked into the database of the Nigerian Police Force.
