NatureNews Africa is a verified, credible, and influential environmental newspaper based in Nigeria, founded by veteran media executive Aliu Akoshile. External validation confirms it is ranked among the top 10 nature publications globally (FeedSpot) and holds Journalism Trust Initiative (JTI) certification. However, the project submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing false traction claims ('most people have used my product') and missing data. While the real-world utility and market timing are excellent, the score is penalized by the lack of direct evidence provided in the submission and the limited mass-market reach compared to broader media platforms.
