A member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP/Obidient, Dickson Iroegbu, has blasted President Bola Tinubu in his recent visit to Jos, Plateau State to commiserate with the families of the victims of Palm Sunday killings.

Speaking in an interview on Arise Television’s ‘Prime Time’ on Friday, Iroegbu said the president never showed empathy during the visit.

He lambasted Tinubu for complaining about power outage at the airport, questioning whose had responsibility of power supply.

Iroegbu said, “Things have happened all over Nigeria, and the president never visited. He finally visited Plateau, and it was anti-climax.

“The president has not demonstrated empathy or shown he is a chief mourner. He stops over at the Plateau airport, complaining about the light. Who should produce the light?

“Of course, the leadership he showed in Plateau cannot motivate anybody, because the President was not challenged. He didn’t show any commitment to safeguarding the lives of the Nigerian people, and that is why we should be careful, because this is election time.

“Permanent solution that we are looking for can only come from our thumbs to vote. Let us vote out a government that has failed. That way, any government that comes in will be afraid of what the people will do if they don’t perform.”

North Korea hackers blamed for $290M crypto theft

Over the weekend, hackers stole more than $290 million in cryptocurrency from Kelp DAO, a protocol that allows users to earn yields on idle crypto investments.

By Monday, LayerZero, one of the projects affected by the hack, accused North Korea of carrying out the heist. The hack is now the largest crypto theft of the year so far, following an earlier hack at crypto exchange Drift in April netted hackers around $285 million.

Per its post on X, LayerZero said the hackers exploited Kelp DAO via its LayerZero bridge, which allows different blockchains to send instructions to each other. The hackers then took advantage of Kelp’s own security configuration, which did not require multiple verifications before approving transactions. That allowed the hackers to siphon off the funds with fraudulent transactions.

The company cited “preliminary indicators” that point to North Korea as the culprit, in particular its hacking group that targets crypto known as TraderTraitor.

Kelp DAO responded to LayerZero blaming it for the theft instead.

In the last few years, North Korean hackers working for Kim Jong Un’s regime have become highly successful at stealing crypto. Last year, North Korean hackers stole more than $2 billion in crypto. Overall, since 2017, the total amount of stolen crypto by North Korea is said to be around $6 billion.
