I never believed that hogwash from the day it surfaced in the internet.

With the names it seem all the Canadian & British citizens were of foreign origin

Lol.

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.

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.

You should give the give guardian newspaper the kudos for the corrections and stop ascribing it to yourself.

Mortal damage from Iranian missiles,one of deliberate mistakes.

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.

Nigerian problem is bigger than this

We should call Buhari in order before he turn the country into military base

Its so horrible to see their names listed that way.

What are those numbers beside the names . Is it their year of birth ?

Even Linda Ikeji aired the news,I knew it was fake that was why www.greatdnews.com.ng did not publish it.

Ebenezar2020:
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.

U they whine us niii

Okay
Seem

They were ALL Iranians.

They just got citizenships or are children of Iranian immigrants.

Op but you know that not all Nigerians have Nigerian names

Mohammadu Buhari, Lai Mohammed Cardijat

These are not Nigerian names does it mean they are not Nigerians

there is no more journalism. what was bothering me was that aircraft are sound prove, how the hell do you listen to the engine while you are inside?

So, what have you said?


Abi you wan replace the dead Nigerian?

Jst check d names a whole family was wiped can u imagine useless mistake

Plenty of Nigerians dieing in Nigeria that no one cares about. SMH

Mehn Iran really Bleep themselve up... Na Panick abi na wetin make them wipe families out... Bleep Iran

and so? it doesn't matter honestly

GamalNasser:
I for taya !!! That's guy didn't look like somebody that worked in Boeing

how do people that work in boeing look? this nigerian mentality is too annoying

Nickshrapnel:
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

Most definitely, with his profile with Boeing, he can't be a Nigerian passport carrier

richPHAROAH:

Omo I am jethead and I know a jet head when I see so shut and go look for your brain grade

Warmaterial:

Very useless people but then, are you sure we are not capable of making such a mistake

They probably left the missiles in the hands of some junior soldiers who were nervous about disappointing their superiors...no so e take start...Im very sure we can do something even more idiotic than this

I actually cannot see 63 Canadian looking names, or British or German looking names so for you to conclude with this fact check article that because there is no Nigerian looking name, that there was no Nigerian on board is really flawed.

They said this baba died in the crash, crappy journalists

God save Iran oo..wetin US dey fear to start we for start am.

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.



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
