DHQ restores website after Hacker's attack.

The Nigerian Defence Headquarters on Friday
regained control of its website hours after
unidentified hackers took control of the
platform, http://defenceinfo.mil.ng and
defaced it.
Tweets were posted on a twitter handle,
@imamsadiq123, claiming responsibility for
the cyber attack. The DHQ provided no
information on the identity of the hackers.
Saturday PUNCH noticed that tweets on the
Twitter handle bearing the logo ‘Our Prophet
Our Honour’ date back to December 25,
2014.
The tweets labelled President Goodluck
Jonathan ‘an infidel’ while also justifying an
attack on presidential guards during a PDP
campaign in Bauchi State on Thursday.
The Director of Defence Information, Maj.-
Gen. Chris Olukolade, said in a tweet hours
after the attack that the infiltration had been
blocked.
He initially said in a tweet, “Yes. Our website
has been defaced. There’s an ISIS style
attempt to hack into Government Platforms.
Our provider, @Galaxybackbone is on it.”
Olukolade later said the hackers defaced the
front end of the website but could not
penetrate the database of the site. He said
preliminary investigation revealed that the
attack was launched from the end of the site
host.
Olukolade said @imamsadiq123 had been put
off for the site activities.
“Normal activities on the channel have
resumed. Apparently, the blogsite was
targeted because of its role as a major
channel for disseminating information on
military and security activities in the nation’s
counter-terrorism campaign,” he said.

Punch.

Top Nollywood Actor Muna Obiekwe is Dead. (photos )

Muna Obiekwe, the popular and
controversial Nollywood actor passed this afternoon in Lagos. Muna Obiekwe was one of the most popular male actors in
Nigeria, he passed today after a
prolonged battle with Kidney failure.
Muna Obiekwe unlike other sick actors/
actresses chose not to beg the public for
funds but instead to raise the money
himself, sources claim he was organising
a stage play to this effect, unfortunately
before this would be realised the actor
succumbed to the illness.
After his death there was initial confusion
over wether he was alive or not, this
confusion came about when a fake twitter
profile in his name claimed he was still
alive but we can confidently and sadly tell
you now that the top nollywood actor
Muna Obiekwe is dead.

See a photo of him on a hospital bed
connected to a kidney dialysis machine below:
