Just a few hours after being reinstated, the Twitter accounts of Kenya Defence Forces and Major E.K ChirChir have been taken over again by a group of hackers allied to the dreaded Anonymous Group.

 

 

 

The take-over was just a few hours after Major E K Chirchir KDF’s Liaison Officer Major tweeted appreciating the governments digital team for reinstating it.

Yesterday, the team had tried the whole day to reinstate the two accounts but seems after reinstating it they simply email everyone the new log in credentials then the hackers go in again.

Those are not the only victims of the hacking. The hackers have taken over the Reforms Kenya, the Ministry of Immigration and Registration of Persons of Kenya, and the Integrated Financial Management Information System of Kenya Hacked.

The hackers seem to have a bone to pick with Kenya Defence Forces, deployed in Somalia to fight the infamous Al Shabaab.
