Claims That Nigerian Died In Iran Plane Crash Are False - Fact Check by Ishilove: 6:08pm On Jan 14, 2020 |
In this age of social media, it is very easy to give into the temptation of spreading news without proper checks, especially when they are being disseminated by supposedly reputable media outlets. However, thankfully there are still some who take the time out for fact checks. Several media publications last week claimed that a Nigerian Dauda Onoruoiza was one of the victims of the Ukraine International Airlines Boeing 737 plane that crashed in Tehran on Wednesday, killing all 176 onboard. Many threads were created on Nairaland on this matter and one even managed to grace the frontpage briefly before it was yanked off by the supermoderator. https://www.nairaland.com/5626777/nigerian-dauda-onoruoiza-among-victims Contd: But was a Nigerian, Dauda Onoruoiza, on-board?https://guardian.ng/news/fact-check-claims-that-nigerian-died-in-iran-plane-crash-untrue/amp/?__twitter_impression=true 12 Likes 3 Shares

Ukraine International Airlines (UIA) published the list of 167 passengers and 9 crew members involved in the fatal crash on their website. See below Flight PS752 passenger manifest: The list contains the names in English, as well as dates of birth. Go through them carefully and note there is no Nigerian name. https://www.flyuia.com/ua/en/news/2020/flight-ps752-passenger-list When this news broke I searched for sources, but it seems all the media outlets reporting quoting one another without an actual official confirmation. This, folks, is CRAPPY journalism. It is utterly disgraceful that media outlets like Punch and ThisDay will feature unverified news like the myriad of unprofessional bloggers that crowd cyberspace. Absolutely shameful. 38 Likes 7 Shares

When I saw news that a Nigerian was among the dead, I searched for proof but only saw nationals of the deceased so I assumed that the supposed Nigerian was also a Canadian 6 Likes |

I just observed that almost all the names there are Muslim and Iranian names. if any Nigerian was in that plane then we would have no other option than to declare war with the useless Iran, deploy our able gallant soldiers to Iran under the leadership of the able Brigadier General Tukur Buratai the Slayer or Boko Haram and IPOB terrorists. We'd have dealt so hard with Iran to show that we Nigerians are the giant of Africa. 11 Likes |

The news was published by reputed media outlets in Nigeria including, The Punch, ThisDayLive, Legit and several other websites. What? To what end is the fake news of the Nigerian for. A big shame on Punch Newspaper. They have been reduced to an online outlet like Yabaleft.com. How the mighty have fallen! We need a bill in our darling nation to put all these fake news carrier into check. 11 Likes 3 Shares |

This is what happens when reputable media outlets rely on tweets from Dauda Mumuni tweeting from a cheap China phone with free data as their source... journalists now lift unconfirmed reports from social media without fact finding. Copy and paste Lazy reporters. I don't even bother buying newspapers these days, I am more current than all of them, just imagine buying a newspaper in the morning to read what you already read on your phone last night. 5 Likes
