Ghanaians say YES to LGBTQ+
If the gods want to disgrace you, they first make you mad. Bawumia should come and 'remove his mouth'! Giving credit to Mahama for initiating the metro card and improving upon it would have restored some credibility to. But a ...

How come Mahama's original set-up was kept in "stealth mode of anonymous" nobody was applying/using it!

You are right. Putting the scoped data out there is unacceptable but in this case, the guy must treated as an ethical hacker and leverage his knowledge to harden the software. Cyber security engineers needs to get involve

Bro relax, this is not a crime its just to create awareness. Read about types of hacking and you will understand
He commits no wrong. It is called ethical hacking
Africans are corrupt these systems will not work
Can this software engineer tell us the software he has developed. All we do in this country is to find 'loopholes' in what others have been able to do. Meanwhile, we have nothing to show as our own achievements.
Hacking can be a full time occupation. Bringing to the public attention this loop hole is good for the wise but obviously not for you. we have been advised not to insult so I rest my case here. Had some choice words for you
don't mind them, they know everything but build nothing. why didn't he showcase his software he has built?

The launch of "tap and go" by Bawumia is just the latest example of policies implemented without detail analysis and adequately preparing to identify potential pitfalls in order to put steps in place to solve them. Lack of pr ...

Mr digitalisation, you got a missed call
It would be worse in metro mass. They would capitalize on these loopholes and still plunge the company to greater losses.

What foolish person you are. You can use your knowledge to hack a software meant for a mere bus company simply because Bawumia launched it and display other people's personal data online but you can't use your expertise to ev ...

Please stop insulting the Software Engineer. He is an Ethical Hacker because he detected a vulnerability in the software code and has even offered to help fix the loophole. I would have rather preferred that he didn't public ...

We are wasting talents, shouldn't this man be minister for Science and Technology. He is good at that
Very unethical to publish your findings in the public domain. U must be arrested. Are u an opposition member?

It's normal.. Government could have done bug bounty or something to ensure its secure before releasing it.
So it doesn't matter it is still a good policy. If you can hack it doesn't make you better. Also, think of how we can seal off these holes.
Metro Mass has come out to testify the system has increased sales
Ghana is movin ...
