If new reports are to be believed, then Elbits System, an Isreali
Electronic Defence firm, has finally arrived Abuja to begin the
installation of a $40million internet facility...which will spy on the
people of Nigeria on behalf of the Nigerian government.
Premium Times reports that the internet monitoring company was
contracted by the Federal Govt in April this year to install a
comprehensive spying facility that will help them monitor its citizens.
The installation will go ahead despite public outcry and an ongoing
legislative probe of the project that followed the leak of the contract
by this newspaper. The installation is also taking place in complete disregard of the
National Assembly which ordered the government to suspend all actions on
the contract pending the outcome of a planned investigation." Premium Times reports
