The managing-director of Topsel Trading is referring to the story headlined “Guru’s done his part, but where are other tycoons?” (Daily Nation, April 3, 2020). See “Co-op Bank donates Sh100m to boost the coronavirus fund” (Nation Online, April 6, 2020). * * *On April 1, the Daily Nation published prominently on page 4 a story headlined “No more BBI as funds diverted to fight virus”. But the next day’s Daily Nation said the story was an April Fool’s prank. ACCURACYMy position is unequivocal: pulling April Fools’ Day pranks on readers and listeners is a no-no for a quality media.
