Pakistani hackers of the Pak Cyber Eaglez group have breached and defaced four Nigerian government websites. 

The targets, according to HackRead, are the sites of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (mfa.gov.ng), the National Planning Commission (nationalplanning.gov.ng), National Malaria Control Programme (nmcp.gov.ng) and National Research Institute for Chemical Technology (narict.gov.ng).

On each of the defaced websites, the hackers have published a message praising Pakistanis and their accomplishments.

Judging by their statement, they’ve defaced the sites to prove that they’re not properly secured.

Currently, only the site of the National Planning Commission is working. The rest of the websites have been taken offline.

Earlier this year, the same hackers managed to breach the official website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and over 180 Egyptian websites, including one belonging to a government organization.
