TechnesstivityBREAKING: NaijaCyberHacktivists Hack Federal Ministry Of Transport Website
Continuing protests over the removal of fuel subsidy by the Nigerian government, hacking group NaijaCyberHacktivists have hacked the website of the Federal Ministry of Transport at http://fmt.gov.ng . The website now shows the logo of NaijaCyberHacktivists as well as images of a protester killed during the pro-subsidy protests in Ilorin. There’s also a logo of Anonymous(the world’s largest hacking group) and PFL. The message beneath the images reads:
Greetings Nigerian Government,
We are NaijaCyberHactivists.
The fetid empire of corruption and consumption that you have created is stifling the lives of hard working Nigerians.
You have sabotaged this country into a monolithic tyranny, yet in doing so made the ties that bind its people brittle.
You shattered this country, liquidating it piecemeal for your own selfish interests.Nigerians are stirring and with it, revolution is brewing.
Perhaps you see yourselves at the eye of the storm, luxuriating in peace and tranquility while all around is ripped apart and made anew.The recent cutting of the fuel subsidies by you is the last straw.
Your horrendous actions have crossed the lines.
Your crimes have united this great melting pot into a white hot alloy of rage.NaijaCyberHactivists are here to offer a gentle reminder:
You are not at the eye of the storm;
You are at the center of the crosshairs!Nigerians have grown weary of their shackles, your greed having left us with nothing to lose, but our chains…and we JUST DID!
