Sahara Reporters, an Online news Agency, has been caught in yet another lie. The US based news agency had reported that there were no sightings of Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki’s campaign posters at the venue of the People's Democratic Party's convention (PDP) holding on Saturday 6th October, in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
Twitter users immediately called them out on their lie by posting pictures of several Saraki campaign posters. They went ahead to include mobile-led trucks that had been sighted around the city of Port Harcourt blaring Saraki’s campaign songs.
This occurrence has left the public wondering why a supposedly credible news source would become so subjective to the extent of giving out false reports.
Recall that Dr. Bukola Saraki in no distant past, won a libel case against the publisher of the popular online news medium.
