EXPOSED: AIT Caught Pants Down After Accusing Buhari Supporters of Hacking Its Online Poll

The Africa Independent Television (AIT), has been caught pants down in an attempt to smear the image of the presidential candidate f the All Progressives Congress (APC), General Muhammadu Buhari, which has become a stock in trade for many individuals, groups and organisations sympathetic to the cause of President Goodluck Jonathan.

The Television station had few days ago organised an online poll between the Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), President Goodluck Jonathan and that of the All Progressives Congress (APC), General Muhammadu Buhari on who Nigerians prefer as their president.

But just a day after the poll went online, AIT being the organiser pull down the poll after Buhari assumed an unprecedented lead over president Jonathan, claiming the site is undergoing maintenance.

Buhari’s lead in notwithstanding a documentary which has been aired constantly on the television platform with the clear intent of tarnishing the image of the former Head of State.

The decision of the TV station to pull down the poll did not go down well with most Nigerians who criticised AIT for its bias on Buhari. Scores of people lambasted the station for deliberately playing out the script of the presidency and the PDP.

But in order to justify her decision to pull down the poll website where Buhari was clearly in the lead, AIT released a press statement claiming the poll was hacked by supporters of Buhari with the use of a software to vote several times in favour of Buhari.

In the statement widely circulated to media houses, AIT claimed an integrity test conducted on the result of the poll showed that 30 unidentified unique IP addresses voted a total of 4969 in favour of Buhari, suggesting that the process was hacked and rigged.

Not satisfied with the claim by AIT however, ICT expert and Executive Director of Paradigm Initiative Nigeria (PIN), Gbenga Sesan went to work and discovered that AIT did nit only lied in the press statement, but also deliberately manioulated the CSV file which contained the IP addresses where voters who participated in the polling are found.

According to Mr. Sesan, though the AIT tried to edit the CSV file so as to prove their point that the poll was hacked, they failed in putting the numbers together which ended up exposing them.

Incidentally, this is about the second time a similar but deliberate falsification from the Jonathan camp would be exposed.

In early 2014, a presidential aide sent a mail with an alias attempting to indict former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Sanusi Lamido Sanusi who is now the emir of Kano as the sponsor of Boko Haram.

Sanusi at that time exposed the $20 billion said to be missing from the account of the Nigerian Nationa Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).

1. Internet Protocol (IP) addresses are number labels assigned to devices within a network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication

'Gbénga Sèsan @gbengasesan · 2h 2 hours ago
2. Internet Protocol designers used 32-bit number. IP protocol version 4 (IPv4) is limited because it’s only from 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255

'Gbénga Sèsan @gbengasesan · 2h 2 hours ago
3. That basically means IP version 4 only has 4,294,967,295 IP addresses. That explains why IP version 6 (128-bit numbers) is now being used

'Gbénga Sèsan @gbengasesan · 2h 2 hours ago
4. Long numbers can be confusing. So, IP addresses use dotted-decimal format: 4 numbers separated by periods. Something like 192.168.123.132

we all know that is fake. just to save face of their. pay masters

Dokpesi's AIT has become like Biblical Esau who sold his birthright for a plate of coconut rice without meat or fish.

AIT used to be a respected media house but because of greed and the deceptive power of riches they've lost the regard Nigerians had for them. How low can a media house go??

Kudos to Buhari and the APC for seeing through the hypocrisy of the 2015 debate organizers. Imagine a debate organized by AIT and Nta, two senselessly biased and partisan media outfits.

Continue with your Propaganda. Come FeBuhari 14, Nigerians will make a bold and epic statement to the killer party. This will be a watershed in our Democratic history and an eternal testament that the voice of the people truly is the voice of God ( Vox populi, vox Dei).

#Ihavedecided

Chai!

Dokpemu + PDP = cluelessness...

I know that AIT is upto something!

One thing that annoys me each and everyday is the question I ask myself, "Is it Buhari's fault that Jonathan ran one of the most useless and corrupt government ever experienced in this country?? Coupled with that he had a 5 year term coupled with the highest oil prices ever experienced in this country yet he goofed and fooled around. He's now relying on character assassination of his opponent and baseless propaganda because he has no scorecard.

Why has Buhari who isn't President yet suddenly become the reason for Jonathan's failures and foolishness? The hate I have for Jonathan just increases everyday witg all these silly actions.

AIT is now claiming that their server was hacked because Nigerians made their choice?? Look that the lame explanation that was put forward. "Multiple OperaMini IPs voted 4000 times"

Cluelessness truly runs in PDP and everything it associates with.

And this is the same AIT that intends to host (and organise) election debates. SMH!

This is 2015, not 1999. If you want to lie, you have to be very smart.

@gbengasesan In the next few tweets, I’ll explain how Internet Protocol (IP) addresses work and prove that AIT is guilty of FORGERY. Please be patient…

@gbengasesan AIT claims that their website was hacked by APC supporters who rigged votes for Buhari from similar IP addresses. Here’s why they’re stupid!

1. Internet Protocol (IP) addresses are number labels assigned to devices within a network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication

2. Internet Protocol designers used 32-bit number. IP protocol version 4 (IPv4) is limited because it’s only from 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255

3. That basically means IP version 4 only has 4,294,967,295 IP addresses. That explains why IP version 6 (128-bit numbers) is now being used

4. Long numbers can be confusing. So, IP addresses use dotted-decimal format: 4 numbers separated by periods. Something like 192.168.123.132

5. If geeks don’t want to be nice, they’d leave easy IP address 192.168.123.132 as 32 bit number. That’d be 11000000101010000111101110000100

6. To make 11000000101010000111101110000100 easy, split into octets - sequence of 8 bits. That would be 11000000.10101000.01111011.10000100

7. 11000000.10101000.01111011.10000100 made much easier would then be 192.168.123.132. How? Let’s look at octet 1 - 11000000. Still with me?

8. To convert 11000000 from binary to dotted-decimal format, just do the 2 raised to power thing. That’s 1*2^7+1*2^6+… (the rest are all 0s)

9. For the 2 raised to power thing, we count from the right. Last number to the right is multiplied by 2^0. Next one by 2^1. 2^7 for the 8th

10. So 1*2^7 = 1*(2*2*2*2*2*2*2) = 128. 1*2^6 = 64. Add both and you have 192. Binary 11000000=Dotted-Decimal 192. Repeat for 3 other octets

11. If you run your numbers well you’ll have binary 11000000.10101000.01111011.10000100 in dotted-decimal format as 192.168.123.132. Got it?

12. So the highest binary set in an octet = 11111111. Convert that. That’s 128+64+32+16+8+4+2+1=255. If an IP address exceeds 255, it’s fake

13. Enough jargon. I said all that to say it’s easy to know a fake IP address when you see one. More on IP addresses: http:///fVkfEXo15r

14. Now, to AIT. For those who skipped from tweet #2 to this one, una nor try at all ☺ AIT claims that votes were rigged in favour of Buhari

15. I now have a copy of the CSV file sent by AIT to media houses. This copy was obtained from a pro-GEJ news website http:///fOhtSifyKN

19. Ladies and gentlemen, look at the IP addresses again. What did you notice? Exactly. 82.145.210.258 to 82.145.210.293. 258 and 293? AIT?!

busted!!!!! now you see why apc dont wanna take part in dat debate. Let a neutral organisation organise a debate and you'll see GEJ do this again...

Trash. Thieffubu TVC can take the poll from where AIT stopd. Let your certificateless dullard BUhari engage other presidential candidate in intellectual debate and tell Nigerians what he can offer. That is more important to all Nigerians than online poll. #Buharimustdebate#

How in the Lord's name was Buhari expected to take part in a debate organised by a grossly partisan outfit like AIT?

Never in the history of my dear country has the amiable profession of journalism been this abridged. Never. Yet another first from the clueless! May God deliver us from negative firsts, which have become recurrent under this administration.

....

Just read all the tweets by gbenga sesan, the guy finish them. I know apc is not that foolish to rig an online poll. Polls help a party to know how popular they are and monitor the pattern of voting in other to improve their strategy. Rigging an online poll doesn't make sense to me at all..

What a shame! How low can PDP go, just when you think you have the worse. And AIT allowed themselves to be dragged into this.For how much? Dokpesis sure hates his business. And to think that this man was implicated in the 1st October bombing and was curiously let go while Orkar is serving a jail term.
