 Meta to end end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages Meta is ending end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages, a feature the company says will no longer be available after May 8, 2026. Unlike WhatsApp, Instagram never offered encryption to all users or as a default; only select users in certain regions could opt in on a per-chat basis. A Meta spokesperson explained that the decision comes due to low adoption. “Very few people were opting in to end-to-end encrypted messaging in DMs, so we’re removing this option from Instagram in the coming months,” the spokesperson said. “Anyone who wants to keep messaging with end-to-end encryption can easily do that on WhatsApp.” Meta’s messaging strategy has shifted multiple times over the years. WhatsApp chats have been encrypted since 2016, and the company began rolling out default encryption for Messenger in 2023. However, Meta has not clarified whether the Instagram decision affects Messenger, which is still in the proc...

 INEC Unveils 142 Recommendations for Electoral Process Improvement


The Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof Mahmood Yakubu, announced 142 recommendations to enhance Nigeria's electoral process. These recommendations cover areas such as voter management, election security, and legal frameworks. 


Yakubu stated that 86 of the recommendations require INEC's action, while 48 need involvement from other stakeholders like security agencies, political parties, and civil society. Key highlights include addressing result management clarity and reviewing the use of Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) for voter accreditation.

2027 Polls: INEC Proposes Review Of PVCs As Sole Means Of Accreditation


The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Thursday proposed a review of the Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs) as the sole means of accreditation of eligible voters ahead of the 2027 general elections.


INEC also seeks reforms to improve the country’s electoral system, following lessons learnt from the 2023 general election and subsequent off-cycle polls.


Speaking during a meeting with Resident Electoral Commissioners in Abuja, INEC Chairman, Professor Mahmood Yakubu, computer-generated slips issued to the voter or even downloaded from the Commission’s website as sufficient means of accreditation.


“The Commission also believes that with the introduction of the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS), the use of the Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVC) as the sole means of identification for voter accreditation on Election Day should be reviewed,” Yakubu said.


“Those who already have the PVCs can still use them to vote, but going forward, computer-generated slips issued to the voter or even downloaded from the Commission’s website will suffice for voter accreditation.


“This will not only save cost, it will also eliminate the issues around the collection of PVCs and the diabolical practice of buying up the cards from voters in order to disenfranchise them.”


The INEC boss also said the electoral body would soon present its legislative proposals to the relevant committees in the Senate and House of Representatives.


He highlighted the commission’s vision to address long-standing challenges and modernise election management.
