The Nigerian Army has announced the complete restoration of its official X account, @HQNigerianArmy, after an attempted cyber breach in August.
In a message posted on its X handle, the Army confirmed the account is now back under its official management and expressed gratitude for the public’s patience during the recovery process. The post indicated, “This account is fully restored and back under the official management of the Nigerian Army. We appreciate your patience and understanding.”
The recovery process began after the Army detected unauthorized access attempts on August 29, 2026.
