Warning against spreading false information

The author warns the public against sharing unverified information on social media, specifically debunking a rumor claiming that Somali forces have entered the Moyale area in Ethiopia. The author argues that such a claim is illogical given the strict security maintained by the Ethiopian National Defense Force (ENDF) along the border and notes that recent arrivals were Somali soldiers fleeing conflict who were immediately apprehended. Furthermore, the author advises users with large followings to verify the authenticity of images and videos before sharing them, citing an example of a three-month-old photo being reused to spread misinformation. The piece concludes by criticizing those who incite ethnic tension, stating that such actions harm the Garri and Borana communities rather than benefiting them.
