Corrections Policy of Media Today Nigeria
Corrections Policy of Media Today Nigeria
Effective Date: August 10, 2026
Media Today Nigeria is committed to accuracy and accountability. While we make reasonable efforts to ensure that our reports are accurate before publication, mistakes can sometimes occur.
When a factual error is identified, we will review the matter and take appropriate action.
1. Our Commitment to Accuracy
We take corrections seriously because our readers rely on us for credible information.
Corrections may be made when an article contains a significant factual error, misleading information, incorrect attribution, inaccurate figures, incorrect names, dates, locations or other material inaccuracies.
2. Types of Corrections
Minor Corrections
Minor errors such as spelling, punctuation, formatting or grammatical mistakes may be corrected without a formal correction notice where they do not change the meaning of the report.
Substantive Corrections
A correction notice may be added when an error materially affects the accuracy or understanding of a story.
The correction may explain what was incorrect and provide the accurate information.
Updates
An article may be updated when significant new information becomes available after publication.
Where appropriate, the article will indicate that it has been updated.
3. Reader Correction Requests
Readers who identify a possible factual error are encouraged to contact Media Today Nigeria.
Correction requests should include:
- The title or URL of the article;
- The specific information believed to be inaccurate;
- The correct information;
- Supporting evidence or documentation where available.
We encourage readers to provide credible evidence so that our editorial team can properly investigate the concern.
4. Review Process
Correction requests will be reviewed by the editorial team.
The fact that a person disagrees with an article does not automatically mean the article contains an error.
Where appropriate, we may contact the reporter, source or subject of the report to establish the facts.
5. Corrections to Political and Public-Interest Reports
Reports involving politics, government, public officials, businesses and other public-interest matters may generate disagreements.
A correction will be made where a factual error is established, regardless of the political, commercial or personal interests involved.
6. Retractions
In exceptional circumstances, Media Today Nigeria may remove or retract an article when publication was based on substantially false or unreliable information, or where continued publication would be seriously misleading.
Where appropriate, a retraction notice may explain the reason for the action.
7. Transparency
We will not knowingly conceal significant factual errors.
When a material correction is made, we may indicate that the article has been corrected or updated.
Our goal is not to appear infallible. Our goal is to be accurate, transparent and accountable.
