    NIGER DELTA GOVERNORS WANT CORRUPTION                    CHARGES DROPPED TO STOP NDA FROM                                            DESTROYING PIPELINES


Niger Delta governors want corruption charges dropped to stop NDA from destroying pipelines.
According to SR, governors of the South-South region who met with VP Osinbajo at the  State House yesterday, called for a majority of the corruption cases in the region to be dropped by the EFCC.
Their source, who was at the meeting, said that only Gov. Oshiomole and the deputy Gov of Cross River opposed the others, who singled out the FG's anti corruption initiative as the reason why Niger Delta Avengers are blowing up pipelines..

The governors reportedly asked the FG to drop charges against former militants accused of corruption and the EFCC to stop investigating the campaign fund scam which has so far revealed how GEJ shared funds meant that were meant for combating Boko Haram among his PDP functionaries.

The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Kachikwu, was also curiously  on the side of the governors who want corruption charges and all forms of corruption investigations against the Niger Delta politicians discontinued.
The Governor of Delta state, Patrick okowa reportedly obtained a two-week ceasefire from the NDA before arriving at the meeeting but did not disclose it because he was uncomfortable that the VP wasnt disposed to the idea.

SR learnt that through his Deputy, Okowa had extensive meetings with the NDA, pointing out that it was evident
that he and other South South governors knew who the militants were as he spoke at the meeting.

SR's source further stated that if the terms pushed by the governors are fully adopted by the Buhari regime, his anti-corruption fight will die prematurely in all South South states..

He said that from the tone of the meeting, it was clear that NDA and their activities  are being funded by politicians in the region with the objective to halting Buhari's anti-corruption war.

Hmmm.. Which way Nigeria?

10 Important Cybersecurity Practices for your Business

  10 Important Cybersecurity Practices for your Business 1. EDUCATION  It’s much easier to prevent a hack than it is to recover from a hack. Once your company’s sensitive data is stolen through a ransomware attack, recovering it is often a long and arduous process. Teaching employees about basic security, personal cybersecurity, and the prevalence of cyber threats goes a long way in stopping ransomware attacks before they can really do damage. Your employees should understand that they might be targets of malicious actors, eager to exploit any entry they can find in your company. The average cost of a cyberattack is 3.86 million and the cumulative total for global cybercrime is expected to cost $6 trillion. If you don’t pay to train your employees about cybersecurity best practices eventually you may end up paying more in the long run. High quality and free trainings for your employees are available from several government resources including Department of Homeland Security. 2. BETTER

Nearly 500,000 workers are needed in cybersecurity roles around the country

The push to work from home during the coronavirus pandemic is straining cybersecurity professionals around the country tasked with ensuring workers are able to not only work efficiently from remote locations — but to do so safely. This rapid shift is a tall order for an industry that was already in need of skilled professionals long before the pandemic took hold.  Cybersecurity workers were taken off some or all of their typical security duties to assist with other IT-related tasks, including equipping mobile workforces, according to an April survey from global nonprofit (ISC)2, the largest association of certified cybersecurity professionals. The survey of 256 cyber pros found nearly half were re-tasked and that a quarter said cybersecurity incidents increased since the transition to remote work, with some seeing as many as double the number of incidents. Separate data from another nonprofit cybersecurity group, the Information Systems Security Association, found a 63% increase in cyb
