Pidgin Fact-Check:
**"Na big fat lie dis one dey talk! Make I break am down for you proper proper:**
1. **Anecdote no mean say e no get fact inside am!** Even if na one person talk am, if e dey claim say "dis tins dey happen like dis," na fact-check we go need. If I tell you say "I chop poison yesterday but I no die," you no go check if poison fit kill person? Na same tin!
2. **Online sources no be God!** You talk say your answer na from online, but online full ground with fake news, old news, and people wey just dey form. If I tell you say "alligator dey live for Lagos Lagoon," you go just believe am because e dey online? No! You go ask fisherman, check book, do your own research.
3. **You dey form say you no get authority, but you still dey talk like you sabi pass!** If you no get authority, why you dey tell people say "no fact-check needed"? Na who give you power? You dey act like say because na personal story, e no fit lie. But people lie every day! Even mama pikin fit lie say "I no chop your meat," when you see am for im teeth.
4. **Na lazy excuse dis one!** If person talk say "I see UFO for my village last night," you no go check if satellite pass, if na lantern fly, or if person just dey high? Na same way, personal story fit be true, fit be false—you no suppose just dismiss am like say e no matter.
**Bottom line:** If person talk, e fit be true, e fit be lie. No matter if na personal story or wetin. You suppose check am proper, no just dey form say "carry on" like say na small tin. Na how we go know wetin real and wetin be cap?"**
