Africa's first independent fact-checking organisation. Launched in 2012 to promote accuracy in public debate and keep politicians honest.

Since 2012, we've fact-checked thousands of claims on topics ranging from crime and race in South Africa to population numbers in Nigeria and fake health cures in other African countries.

If you would like to suggest a claim for us to fact-check, please email it to info@africacheck.org
