Agricultural Research Council of Nigeria website www.arcnigeria.org has been suspended by ICANN. As at the time of posting this news, the domain is pending ICANN verification. ICANN reason for suspending the site was that the domain (arcnigeria.org) registration and the Registrant email address has not been verified.

As of January 1, 2014 the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) will mandate that all ICANN accredited registrars begin verifying the Registrant WHOIS contact information for all new domain registrations and Registrant contact modifications.

We encourage the handler to do the needful and restore the website back.
