Nigerians Should Desist From Spreading Fake News by egorov(op): 5:40am On Mar 21, 2020

Why do we like sharing fake news in this country especially when there is a major global or local problem. Please let's desist from such.. For first hand information about covid19 in Nigeria, you can follow the NCDC on Twitter. Please stop making people panic.

Some fake news spreading around

-New case in abuja
-A celebrity that attended AMVCA showing symptoms
-A youth Corp member in ekiti tested positive
-New case in Ibadan
-Canadian prime ministers wife dead
-dybala tested positive
-Ronaldinho and brother tests positive.

PLEASE share other fake news spreading around so we can discredit them.

MAY GOD heal us of this pestilence

God Bless Nigeria, God bless the world.

I follow NCDC on Twitter for Nigerian update on the virus. Then I use Wikipedia to follow the world numbers.
