The Lagos State Honourable Commissioner for Science and Technology, Hon Hakeem P. Fahm has debunked the report that Lagos State Government website was hacked. He stated this in a press release.
Fahn said that “the attention of the Lagos State Government has been drawn to a publication by the Guardian Newspapers on Thursday, 22nd of October 2020, claiming that the Lagos State Government website was hacked”.
“I wish to come out to clear the air on the issue. This information is not true. Our website was never hacked”.
“Members of the public should always verify issues, and get facts and figures right before dissemination”.
“For the avoidance of doubt, I hereby confirm that the Lagos State website is up and running perfectly”.
“Over the past few days, the flow of misinformation on social media and other channels have been alarming, and this has put the security of residents at immense risk”.
