Election Panic as Presidency Begs Media to Avoid Fake Stories

The Presidency via its Media Personnel expressed a concern over the information shared on media.

In his words: “I enjoin the media in Nigeria to make extra effort to report actual and reliable information, and avoid being associated with fake news stories. Journalism is a very important part of our society and our democracy; it should be credible and based on facts at all times.”

This was shared on his twitter page and it attracted several comments on twitter.
