East African Data Handlers co-founder George Njoroge

An anonymous source has reported that George Njoroge’s East African Data Handlers (EADH) is engaging in shady business practices.

Hi Nyakundi,

I would like you to expose East African Data Handlers for the malpractice they have been doing to companies.

They have been paying people and paying their sub-contractors to install ransomware in clients’ computers mostly companies.

They then go to the companies and claim they can write decryptors in three days so they charge the clients for it.

It is bad practice and I find it illegal. East African Data Handlers co-founder George Njoroge (Midle) Raila Odinga and Martha Karua. Mr Njoroge was Azimio La Umoja's IT Officer.

Please expose EADH for their criminal practices.

I know this because I’ve spoken to former colleagues. A ransomware is a type of malicious software designed to block access to a computer system until a sum of money is paid. Please ask the former companies that have hired EADH to remove ransomware, from their computers.
