While misinformation is false information that is created and spread regardless of an intent to harm or deceive, disinformation is a type of misinformation that is created to be deliberately deceptive. Both forms may be shared widely, regardless of whether or not the sharer knows the information is wrong.
Suffice to say at this juncture that it is only trite to set the records straight regarding the treatment of Ibarapaland by the current Oyo State Government, ably led by His Excellency, Engineer ‘Seyi Makinde (FNSE).
