For some time now, I've been trying to open a new Yahoo Mail account. But I've been unable to because of password which requires me to imput alphabets (upper case & lower case), numbers and symbols. Another thing is that they are all required in a minimal number which is also stated which I can't remember. I couldn't find a way to make a password which requires the combination of alphabets, numbers and symbols. It's somehow hectic and frustrating. I decided to abandon opening the Yahoo Mail account. Is Yahoo Mail deliberately doing this to stop people from registering with their email Or just doing this to curb scam by not allowing people to just open email anyhow What do you people think about this? I like you to share your thoughts...

They have been hit severally by hackers recently so they're simply taking security measures to curtail further hits

Is this only applicable to Nigeria

No. Just go for gmail. They're secure and easy to signup
