Nigerian journalists and news media don't do fact-checking.
..
They just copy-and-paste

To say the fact, here in Nigeria journalist will continue collecting brown envelope even they will collect blue envelope if there is any. Am a journalist and I love doing my job. But the problems journalist face in Nigeria will make them collect brown envelope oo.

1. Some media house held journalist salary for over 12 month. Tell me how do you want that journalist survive without his salary?

2. Poor payment, I swear journalist is one of job with poor salary.

Brown envelope can only be stop if media house pay there staff in time and increase payment.

Can you imagine I go cover one event and the event organizer gave me #1000. Just 1k. I wonder what 1k will do ?

That is not the point, my point is journalist see brown envelope as blessing not as bribe
