Error Correction
Policy.
When the details affect your next step,
getting them right matters.
Found a wrong fee, date, requirement or other detail? Help us check it.
Report an errorInclude the article link and what needs checking.Students use CampusNinja to plan applications, prepare for exams and budget for school. We aim to publish accurate information, but mistakes can happen and official information can change.
This policy explains how to flag a concern and how corrections should be handled.
Tell us what needs checking.
You don’t need to have every answer before reporting a possible error. Send what you know, with:
- The link to the CampusNinja article.
- The detail you believe is wrong, unclear or out of date.
- An official source or notice, if you have one.
Use our correction message form or email hello@campusninja.com.ng. If the issue concerns a deadline or payment instruction, say so clearly.
Check the evidence.
Ayuba Haruna reviews reported errors and checks the relevant sources. Official notices from the institution or examination body take priority where available.
A report does not automatically mean the article is wrong. If sources conflict or the answer cannot be confirmed, the uncertainty should be made clear rather than presented as a settled fact.
Concerns about payment instructions, application deadlines, fees and admission requirements receive priority because they may affect a student’s immediate decision. Verification can take time; a fixed response time is not promised.
Make the change clear.
Spelling, formatting and clarity
Minor edits that do not change the meaning may be made without a separate correction note.
A detail that changes the answer
When a material factual error is confirmed, the article should be corrected and a dated note added explaining what changed. This includes errors involving fees, deadlines, eligibility or admission requirements.
The official information has changed
A newly announced fee or revised date is an update, not necessarily an error in the original reporting. The article should identify the new information and the session or date it applies to.
The article cannot be relied on
If the central claim is unreliable and cannot be repaired through a correction, the article may be withdrawn. An explanation should remain available where practical.
See what a correction note would look like
Correction — [date]: An earlier version of this article gave an incorrect application deadline. The deadline has been corrected to match the institution’s official notice.
This is an example of the format, not a report of an actual correction.
A named person is responsible.
CampusNinja is currently run independently by Ayuba Haruna. He is responsible for reviewing reports and making corrections to the site.
If you have further evidence or believe a correction has not addressed the issue, reply to the same email with the additional details.
