 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...

 MOUAU Management Denies Knowledge of Alleged DSS Arrests of Abia Indigene Staff Amid Vice-Chancellor Succession Controversy


The management of Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike (MOUAU) in Abia State has strongly denied any knowledge of reported arrests by the Department of State Services (DSS) involving staff members of Abia origin, describing media headlines on the matter as "unfactual" and potentially inflammatory.


In a statement issued on Tuesday by the university's Chief Public Relations Officer, Ubadire Agua, MOUAU distanced itself from claims that the Chairman of its Governing Council, Fidelis Edeh, orchestrated the detention of certain staff allegedly opposed to his purported efforts to influence the selection of the institution's next Vice-Chancellor.


"The University management is not aware of any arrest of any University staff in MOUAU by DSS," Agua stated. "And the Chairman of the Governing Council could not have ordered DSS or any security agency for that matter to do so without informing the University."


The denial comes in response to recent media reports accusing Edeh of masterminding the arrests through a petition to the DSS, following demands from some staff and interest groups for transparency in the upcoming Vice-Chancellor appointment process. The reports alleged that Abia indigene staff were targeted after advocating for fairness and opposing any attempts to impose a preferred candidate.


Agua expressed concern over what he termed "unverified" and "sponsored reports" that could escalate tensions on campus and undermine the accomplishments of the outgoing Vice-Chancellor, Professor Maduebibisi Ofo Iwe.


While urging security agencies to maintain neutrality and vigilance in their duties, the university reaffirmed its commitment to collaborating with them to preserve peace during the leadership transition.


MOUAU further appealed to all stakeholders to pray for a smooth and peaceful emergence of a new Vice-Chancellor, emphasizing the need to avoid actions or publications that could disrupt the institution's harmony.


The controversy highlights ongoing sensitivities around the Vice-Chancellor selection at the federal university, with previous calls from groups like the Abia Democratic Alliance for a merit-based and transparent process.
