Stephanie Busari : How fake news does real hams (transcript)
Summary
A fake news delays solving an incident.
Nowadays, there are many kinds of fake news in the world.
A news that didn't happen is announced that it happened.
However, one trouble happened, but it's announced that it didn't happen. People believed that it didn't happen and the trouble was forgotten.
Nigeria's politicians told that Boko Haram’s kidnapping in Nigeria was a hoax, thus no one tried solving it.
Only the speaker asks tough questions to the government and listens to the story of victims to solve. We have to check and verify a news definitely. Someone might take advantage by sharing this information and it might have a hidden agenda.
We have to stop the spread of fake news to solve it early.Words in this story
offender /noun/ wrongdoer, criminal
