Don't believe everything you read online. This is a prime example of how quickly fake news and fabricated stories can spread across social media. #CheckBeforeYouPost #TruthAtTheBallot #FactCheckAfrica #EPSG #FIAP #ECOWAS

But the real outcome of this workshop cannot be measured by attendance figures. It will be measured by stories reported more responsibly, misinformation challenged more effectively, and democratic conversations that become more truthful & inclusive as #2027Elections approaches.
