The Chairman of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission(NIDCOM), Abike Dabiri-Erewa, has alerted that hackers took over her social media accounts.
In a since-deleted post, the NIDCOM boss celebrated the alleged release of the over 300 abducted Katsina schoolboys by Boko Haram insurgents.
The post read: “Yaaaay. The 333 boys captured in Katsina have been rescued. ALlhamdulilag ! @MBuhari administration has brought back our boys. #BringBackOurBoys. Our boys are back.”
The former House of Representatives member, however, posted a disclaimer, stating that her Twitter and Instagram accounts were hacked.
She, however, revealed that she has regained control over both accounts.
“Pls don’t credit any post on katsina boys to my Twitter handle. I lost control of my handle in the last couple of minutes, along with my Instagram. I have recovered and changed my password.”
