Media managers have been advised to check the activities of fake news purveyors, especially on the social media, saying this could help to safeguard the unity of the country.
The advice was given at the third LateefJakande Memorial Lecture, organised by Nigerian Guild of Editors, at EDMARK D’Podium International Event Centre, Ikeja.
The lecture had the theme, “Journalism and the Challenge of Nation-building in a Multi-Ethnic Society.”
