The attention of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has been drawn to some misleading comments on social media which falsely claimed that “ MAFAB Communications, one of the companies granted Fifth Generation (5G) licences by the Commission is yet to roll out the service, nearly two years after obtaining a licence, and one year after the roll-out date.”
For a fact, MAFAB Communications is one of the two successful companies that won a 5G Licence during the globally-acclaimed transparent 5G Auction conducted by the Commission on December 13, 2021.

Advisory ID : ngCERT-2023-0031
Summary:
The Kenyan government, via the Ministry of Interior, claimed that some of the country's online infrastructures had been struck by a wave of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, rendering the country's online platforms unreachable. The attack began on 23 July 2023, just barely four weeks after President Ruto released thousands of government services on the e-citizen platform in an effort to boost efficiency and reduce corruption. This platform hosts services such as passport applications and renewals, e-visa issuance, driver's licences, identification cards, and national health records. Kenya's well-known mobile payment system, M-Pesa, as well as the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA), Kenya Power and Lighting Company (KPLC), and Kenya Railways, have all been impacted. Anonymous Sudan has claimed responsibility for the attacks.
