Everybody needs to be fact-checked to know if they are disseminating the right information
About us
N-VA began as a passion to debunk the viral misinformation circulating on Nigeria’s internet space about COVID-19. A facebook page was created in May 2020, fact-checked reports were published on this medium and on the Twitter page launched in the same month. One of our most widely shared fact-check reports was a claim purportedly attributed to Nobel laureate winner, Dr. Dennis Mukwege. In August 2020, N-VA’s two-man team launched the fact-check website and added two volunteer research assistants to the team. Our fact-check reports have covered misinformation on COVID-19, public policy, elections, falsified data, and we have fact-checked several prominent politicians and government agencies.
