Table 3 under the Sokoto section, describes the computer security scenarios viewed by cybercafé operators
in the Sokoto metropolis. 96.4% of respondents were likely to have their computer system becoming corrupted
by a virus, and 3.6% said it is unlikely. 57.2% said it is expected that a hacker took over their computers, 28.5%
says it is doubtful, and 14.3% were neutral. Also, 85.8% of respondents were likely to become corrupted by a
computer virus, 28.6%, 7.1% were neutral and very unlikely. 57.2% of respondents were very likely that
personal identity being stolen, 25% were neutral, and 17.8% were unlikely. 42.9% of respondents were likely
that personal/financial identities being stolen, 17.9%, 42.8% were doubtful, and 14.3% were neutral. 50% of
respondents were likely not able to access the Internet because of a computer virus attack, 42.9% were unlikely,
and 7.1% were neutral
Table 3 under the Kebbi section describes the computer security scenarios viewed by cyber café operators
in the Sokoto metropolis. 95.2% of respondents were likely to have their computer system becoming corrupted
by a virus, and 4.8% were neutral. 52.4% of respondents were possible that a hacker took over their computers,
19.0% were unlikely, and 28.6% were neutral. 95.2% of respondents were likely to have their files becoming
corrupted by a computer virus, and 4.8% were doubtful. 76.2% of the respondents were alleged to have personal
identity stolen, 4.8% were unlikely, and 19.0% were neutral. Under the statement that said personal/financial
identities being stolen (loan fraud), 47.6% of respondents were likely, 28.6% were neutral, and 23.8% were
unlikely. 61.9% of respondents agreed that they were likely unable to access the Internet because of a computer
virus attack, and 38.1% were unlikely. 61.9% of respondents were probably having a computer infected with a
virus due to visiting a website, 14.3% were dubious, and 23.8% were neutral. It, therefore, shows that both
Sokoto and Kebbi respondents have a low-level adoption of computer security majors and mostly have systems
corrupted by different kinds of viruses.
