Police speak on reported hacking, stealing of N1 billion from Enugu govt’s account

The Nigerian police have refuted reports that a cyber criminal allegedly hacked into the account of the Enugu State Government and stole N1.09 billion.

A report surfaced recently suggesting that a suspected cyber criminal, Osita Onuma, allegedly infiltrated the financial system of the Enugu State Government and stole about N1,097,700,300 from the government account.

But the police national spokesperson, Muyiwa Adejobi, in a statement on Thursday night described the report as “false and unfounded.”
