How Omodunefe approaches accuracy, fairness, sourcing, opinion, interviews and visual evidence.
Omodunefe is not a breaking-news service. We take time to check names, dates, locations, documents and material claims before publication.
Stories should distinguish facts we have verified, claims made by a source, eyewitness recollections and the writer’s interpretation. Uncertainty is stated plainly.
People and organisations facing serious criticism should receive a reasonable opportunity to respond. Their response, or the fact that they did not respond, should be represented fairly.
We seek permission to publish interviews and identify the source, date and location of visual material whenever possible. Footage is not presented as independent confirmation when it only records one person’s account.
Commentary reflects the writer’s considered view. Advertising and sponsored material are clearly labelled and do not buy favourable editorial conclusions.
We avoid publishing private information, graphic material or identifying details unless the public value clearly justifies the potential harm.
Material errors are corrected promptly. Significant corrections are noted on the affected story. Readers can request a review through the contact page.
