There is a rising danger gradually finding it ways into our society because of rising fake news and lack of investigative journalism.

There have been so much counter claims of so many news publish by the print and online media that have been debunked.

It has become worrisome to the extent that the media are competing in who is the first to publish fake news. Of recent Sun newspapers rushed to publish a fake news about the death of former house of rep speaker,Ghalli Na Abba but later brought it down. Simple because they never carry out investigation and quick to publish. This has happened with so many others media too.

There's no investigative journalism again, All what they do is copy and paste and catching up on the masses emotional disposition of things. This days most people tend to believe fake news because it suits there Emotions. That something suite your emotions and sentiment doesn't make it true.

To some people any media that takes it time to do investigation before publishing her information are termed supporters of either government or they have been bought over as the news doesn't satisfy the fake news mongers emotions and desire.

No wonder the likes of Nnamdi Kanu of IPOB and Kemi could easily toast some people around as they wish in also carrying out conspiracy speculative news which is very close to fake news.

Let's learn to hear from both parties involved in any news before making our conclusions, because fake news is gradually becoming a danger to our society.

God bless Nigeria!!!

Brother you live in a society where what is true is known by a few. And when this is known, government either for political reason tend to under-report. A fine example would be the Chadian saga where Idris Derbe and his troops made raid on a Bokoharam stronghold. This was peddled as fake by the nigerian authorities until international news outlets like Aljazeera showed live video footage confirming Chads raid.
