Stay alert, stay secure.

Imagine withdrawing cash from an ATM and getting paid to do it, unknowingly helping a crime ring. That’s the money mule reality in parts of West Africa.

Imagine losing network connection, not because of a system glitch, but because someone cut the fibre line.
Over 19,000 incidents in 2024. Billions lost. And it’s getting worse.
Nigeria’s telecom vandalism crisis is more than infrastructure damage, it’s a national security threat.
