EDO ELECTION: Group Raises Alarm Over Plot To Engage Russian Hackers by GovsMandate: 1:33pm On Aug 21, 2020
Edo First for Growth (EFG), a political pressure group has raised alarm over an alleged plot by the opposition in Edo State to engage the services of Russian nationals to hack the servers of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in order to compromise the forthcoming governorship elections in their favour.

Disclosing the development to our correspondent, the spokesperson of the group, Yusuf Amedu said the group has received damming intelligence reports confirming that operatives of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Edo State have procured the services Russians to launch the cyber attack on the website of the electoral umpire. He stated that the ungodly plot is being bankrolled by a controversial Benin business mogul.

The EFG urged the Federal Government and Intelligence Agencies to beam its searchlight on the Russian embassy with a view to vetting strange arrivals of their nationals and their mission in the country.

Amedu called on the government not to treat the allegation with levity because if left unchecked will be an affront on the sovereignty of the nation.

"A situation where local election will be influenced from another country will not augur well for the peace, prosperity and security of our people", he concluded.
