Hackers again pull down statehouse website

 

Suspected hackers reportedly based in US have again pulled down Uganda statehouse website. This is not the first time hackers misuse Uganda government websites.

Recently they posted a picture of FDC leader Kizza Besigye seated on a stool in a rather pensive mood on the website of the ministry of works. And no so long ago the suspected hackers post a picture of Adolf Hitler on the statehouse website www.statehouse.go.ug.

A source at statehouse told one of our reporters on Wednesday that the hackers destroyed the system of state house website and it needs repair. When we loaded the statehouse website we found there the following information.

“The State House Uganda website is currently under construction. The website will be launched soon. Thank you.”

The Uganda government intelligence network has been following up suspected international hackers who collude with Ugandans to destroy government websites. Recently the hackers superimposed on the website of the works ministry the following message: “Welcome to Ministry of Hackers and Jobless Ugandans Republic of Uganda.”
