    • As of 10:30 pm on Wednesday, multiple attempts to access the website were unsuccessful due to the link being unavailable.

    On Wednesday evening, the official website of Guaranty Trust Bank (GTBank), a prominent Nigerian financial institution, was compromised in a hacking incident, resulting in its inaccessibility to customers.

    As of 10:30 p.m. on Wednesday, error messages were encountered during numerous attempts to access the website ((link unavailable)).

    Cybersecurity experts suggest that the bank’s login credentials may have been compromised, rather than the domain itself being seized for resale, despite the fact that the domain name had been recently renewed for a five-year period, as reported by Daily Trust.

    GTBank had not yet released an official statement regarding the incident at the time of this report. The outage prompted customers to communicate their frustrations and concerns on social media.

    She closely managed the haircut, which led to various reactions from her followers.

    The video was captioned: “POV: You prayed for a wife and got a perfectionist and a troublemaker. Please o is it a crime to be his favorite problem? 🤷🏼‍♀️Brothers can y’all relate? 😂🤣”
