Cybersecurity experts have stated that the Federal Government’s claim that 12.99 million cyber attacks were recorded during the elections is impossible.
They added that the government needs to explain its claim and allow experts to investigate its systems.
Earlier, the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Pantami, disclosed in a statement that 12.99 million cyber attacks were recorded during election week.
He stated that on the presidential election day, there were 6.99 million attacks.
Pantami noted that the Presidential cybersecurity committee for the election was up to the task and blocked all the attacks.
