User:Celestina007/Celestina007's Nigerian reliable and unreliable sources

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Whilst the sources listed under Reliable sources are generally considered reliable in Nigeria, if you are a new page reviewer reading this, when dealing with Nigerian sources or any sources for that matter, it is not about reliable sources it is about “reliable pieces”. Note that these are my views alone.

Reliable sources

  1. The Punch
  2. Nigerian Tribune
  3. This Day
  4. The Sun (Nigeria)
  5. Business Day (Nigeria)
  6. Premium Times
  7. New Telegraph
  8. Sahara Reporters
  9. Leadership (newspaper)
  10. Nigerian Observer

  14. Nigeria Standard
  15. P.M. News
  16. Nigerian Compass

Sources to be used cautiously

  1. The Guardian (Nigeria) (Once a stellar source but every now again fail to disclose when a post is sponsored, however they are borderline as they still do and are capable of good work)

  5. Yabaleftonline (plagiarizing, no real editorial oversight)
