Governor Of Anambra, Obiano |
It was the biggest story that trended on social media last week, the story of a restaurant which was discovered by security agencies of selling Human flesh to customers IN Akwa Anambra state
Bizarre it may sound, what makes it more appalling and incredible was that two credible international media carried the story on their platform
Good a thing that BBC and Daily Mail have realized their mistake, have taken the story down and also have done the right thing by apologizing
See the apology from the two international media giants after the cut
See BBC apology below
“The story about the Nigerian restaurant which we published here was a mistake and we apologise. It was incorrect and published without the proper BBC checks. We have removed the story and have launched an urgent investigation into how this happened.
The BBC Swahili service’s reputation for accuracy and balance remains of paramount importance to us and we are taking the appropriate steps to insure that mistakes like this do not happen again.”
