Africa Check adds regional context that a distant article can miss. It works across South Africa, Kenya, Nigeria and Senegal, and publishes reports, factsheets and guides. Check a local figure’s country, period and definition; another jurisdiction’s verdict may not fit.
It makes the ten for that regional depth. Chequeado gets our adjacent edge only under this shortlist’s Spanish-language workflow preference. For a claim from Africa Check’s covered contexts, move it ahead of generic options: the right local evidence is more useful than a prestigious name without a matching investigation.
