Online fact findings have indicated that there was no occurrence that led to the killing of a giraffe by a passenger plane in South Sudan.
On May 6th, a Twitter user posted a picture of a dead giraffe that collided with a passenger plane.
The tweet was caption “Only in South Sudan”, which according to our analysis literally meant the Twitter user was reporting, that the incident happened in South Sudan, as seen in the below picture.
The misplaced post
211 Check findings found out that the alleged image implying the event to have happened in South Sudan, is for an incident involving Pilot Tico McNutt, a researcher for African Wild Dogs that collided with a giraffe at Santawani airstrip in Botswana close to Maun Okavango Delta.
According to Aviation Safety Network, the event that occurred on October 4, 2004 left the giraffe dead. The Cessna 172, with registration V5-ETS crashed while taking off.
Fortunately, out of the four occupants, there were no fatalities reported, except the pilot who sustained minor injuries.
CONCLUSION: The incident didn’t happen in South Sudan.

Rigorous findings carried out by 211 Check crew have identified the notorious online Madam Atong Foundation Scholarship as fraud and deceitful page established to scam desperate South Sudanese and Sudanese students seeking scholarships online.
According the investigations, a Facebook page named “Sudanese Scholarship 2020-2025.Madam Atong Foundation” has been making announcements bearing ‘fully funded’ scholarships to South Sudanese and Sudanese Students to study abroad.
The fraud page was created on July 27, 2020, and is primarily managed by three people in Uganda.
It on Sunday [23rd of May] made another announcement calling for applicants to seek scholarship abroad. The below screenshot bears the call for applications.
However, when fact-checked by 211 Check, the so-called “Madam Atong Foundation” is untruthful platform intended to extract money from anxious students in search of scholarship opportunities to study abroad.
Below arefacts that show the page is a fraud.
Fact #1: No legitimate website and physical location
The so-called foundation doesn’t have a legitimate website from which its ‘the about information’ can be obtained. Though, the scammers claim to have a physical location at Bungoma district (a Kenyan border town neighboring Uganda) next to Electoral Commission Building, they don’t actually have an office there.
Fact #2: No legal existence
When 211 Check contacted the Uganda NGO Bureau, the prominent NGO institution said it not aware of such an organization. Refugee authorities have also denied working with Madam Atong Foundation that claims it offers scholarships to mainly to refugees in Uganda. In addition, Uganda’s list of non-governmental organizations operated in Uganda, Madam Atong Foundation can not be mentioned
Fact #3: Weaponized context:
Most of the images used on their Facebook Page are not in any way related to events of a so-called “Madam Atong Foundation”. Through Reverse Image Search, most of the pictures are of different events not of their activities as claimed. For example, one of the images used by the foundation, describing students to be lining for scholarship procedures in its office, is an image of truck drivers entering Kenya queue to be tested for Covid-19. The picture was taken by Brain Inganga, United States Associated Press journalist. See the below image to verify.
Fact #4: No Application Fully Funded Scholarships
As we all know, application processes for fully funded scholarships don’t need money. However, when contacted, the Madam Atong Foundation demanded cash of about $200 at the initial stages, even before you see the application form.
They usually want the money to be sent via MTN Uganda via Mobile Money to +256770671123 registered with the ANNE THEREZA KIGENI. Below are the contacts of institutions the organization requires the cash to be sent through. Its unfortunate Uganda’s prominent Centenary Bank is mentioned as well.
Fact #5: Errors in communication
Most of the communication shared by the administrators of this foundation have misspellings and grammatical mistakes – something a legitimate and reputable organization rarely commit.
Conclusion:
211 Check deep research findings suggest that there is no organization such as Madam Atong Foundation anywhere in the world. This is just a fake/fraud page designed to extract money from people who may fall victims.

South Sudan’s Central Bank appeals to online and offline communities to disregard the trending 5,000 South Sudanese Pounds bank note.
This comes after many online users expressed concerns, why the bank would introduce the new note, yet the recently launched 1000 SSP bank note had not met its intertest.
This week, a picture of a five thousand South Sudanese Pounds note (5,000SSP) went viral online on various social media platforms. Many users alleged that the Central Bank of South Sudan had plans underway to print the note which it intends to bring into circulation.
However, after 211 Check fact-checked and verified the bank note critically and carefully, the team found the image as manipulated.
Below are the facts explaining why it is fake.
Fact #1: The figure “5” is not consistent (different font) with the 5 SSP, 50 SSP, and 500 SSP that all have the same fonts.
In addition, the “5” looks misplaced darker than the zeros. It has also the same graphic design as the 10 SSP note. Therefore, a doctored image of the 10 SSP note.
Fact #2: There was no official communication from the Central Bank of South Sudan, stating plans of launching a new note.
Speaking at a press briefing today (Tuesday), Central Bank Governor, Dier Tong dismissed the social media rumors. He described the trending banknote as misinformation and fake banknote.
In February this year, the same fake bank note surfaced online. But the Central Bank governor dismissed it, stressing that the bank had only launched the 1000 SSP note.

211 Check investigations have identified the trending message [link] about Toyota’s 80th Anniversary Celebration and the giveaway of a Toyota Corolla being sent to numerous internet users on various social media platforms as a scam.
The new online fraud popular on WhatsApp, Messenger, and Telegram, is being received by many online users via cellphone.
Analyzed by 211 Check, the message urges the recipients to click the link and be part of Toyota’s 80 Anniversary Celebration and get a chance to win a luxurious Toyota car.
Our investigations have clearly identified the message as an online fraud. Find out below why it is!
Protection and Safety: Don’t click or proceed with the contest, because your account might be compromised or you might be lured into a fake scam dealing. Avoid this link:http://jtyjdg.ymmtwq.cn/fengtian/index.php#1621339177652
Why is this Toyota 80th Anniversary Celebration contest a scam?
SCAM AWARD MESSAGE
For some online users wondering what qualifies the above message to be a scam, below are tips of classifying facts about online fraud.
Fact #1: The link is highly suspicious.
If you closely look at the link, it goes to http://1s7wttd.nodxteh.cn which is not an original or official Toyota Company’s website link or domain.
The links moves from one website to another, which 211 Check observed were unrelated Chinese-registered (.cn) domains.
In addition, the above link is not Encrypted, which would start with https://. Note: legitimate websites will use SSL-Encrypted links (with HTTPS, not HTTP). When you see such links, DO NOT CLICK on them.
Fact #2: Toyota’s 80th Anniversary was in 2017
Toyota Company was established on August 28 1937. The company celebrated its 80th anniversary in 2017.
Below is the Toyota Motor Corp tweet published August 28, 2017.
Happy Birthday 🎂 #Toyota! 80 years and counting. Celebrating with a big THANK YOU to everyone who helps to make it possible every day. pic.twitter.com/DjKeAOGTCX
Fact #3: Toyota is in the business of selling cars
According to reliable facts online, Toyota Company is in the business of selling cars, but not giving them away for free as stipulated in the scam.
Facts states that the company has never offered a single car at free cost, when it celebrated its 80th anniversary in 2017.
Fact #4: The page has so many troubling clues
If you click on the link, you will be led to this page, claiming you will get a free gift with Toyota… and a chance to win a Toyota Corolla – a page that is full of grammatical mistakes, something an actual Toyota website would not have, because prominent companies such as Toyota hire professionals staff.
When you click on the comments of people who claimed to have won the Toyota Corolla, the links don’t take you to any reliable web. Our analysis shows that the messages are all ‘FAKE’ placed there to lure you.
In addition, if you check the code of the comments, you can see that all comments and pictures were manually inserted on the web.
Fact #5: You will always win the car
You can try the contest any number of times, and you will ALWAYS win the car.
Why? Because the next step involves you sharing this with 5 groups or 20 friends on WhatsApp. So, no matter how many times you participate, you will ALWAYS win the free Toyota Corolla. Do you think that’s the case with a real contest? Off course NO!
Fact #6: Website information through Whois Search
The WHOIS information of the imposter website reveals it was registered on June 17, 2020, in China by Sichuan Domain Fun Network Technology Co., Ltd., while the legitimate Toyota Website (https://www.toyota.com/) was registered on December 29th, 1994 by Toyota Motor Sales, USA – a big research that qualifies the message and website was scams.
CLEAR WHOIS FINDINGS
Conclusion:
It is cleared that the Toyota 80th Anniversary is a SCAM, NOT LEGIT. If you receive such messages, kindly ignore them and alert others about such online fraud threats. Secondly, don’t share or proceed beyond this page.

Online fact checking investigative findings regarding some recent pictures alleged to have been taken on top of Jebel Kujur in Juba have revealed those images as untrue.
Last week, some photos made rounds on social media, especially on Facebook, that are perceived to have been taken at Jebel Kujur in Juba.
Two of the photos were shared widely by both some sensational FACEBOOK PAGES and individuals, depicting activities that they say “hikers do on the mountain top during their regular exercises”.
Hiking on Jebel Kujur has become a hobby for a notable number of Juba residents.
Below are a few examples of some images manipulated by some individuals.
First manipulated imageSecond manipulated image
But, are these photos from Jebel Kujur? No, they are manipulated images, according to 211 Check investigations.
The team of fact checkers Reverse Image Search images and online Photo-forensics software shows the photos to have been manipulated. They are probably photoshopped or edited using other sophisticated graphics applications.
The first photo “Daggering_21.jpg”, alleged to have been taken at Jebel Kujur, was shared by Chiara Meatteli, a London based journalist, photographer and video maker in 2018. It originated from “Jamaica”.
In order to confirm it for yourself, here is the link to the Photo.

The second photo that many online users believed to have been taken at Jebel Kujur, was shared on the Student Life website in an article titled: “Safe ‘sex’ at W.I.L.D.?” by Noah Charak, a sex columnist on October 8th, 2010.

Health officials have confirmed that the 59,000 doses of AstraZeneca vaccines donated by the African Union, Africa Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and MTN were not expired as perceived by many South Sudanese.
Earlier this week, a prominent South Sudanese activist claimed that MTN that the African Union donated expired AstraZeneca vaccines to South Sudan.
“So MTN donated for us expired 59,000 doses of AstraZeneca vaccines. We would’ve put such a huge number of people lives under risk. Big thanks to our medical experts for realizing and acting very fast. Kudos!” reads the Facebook post.
Activist’s Facebook post
Another tweet on 18th April by a prominent comedian, who has 5,920 followers on Twitter in a fun-related manner also did state that the AstraZeneca vaccines donated by MTN to South Sudan were expired.
“So, @MTNSSD donated expired vaccines to South Sudan? Did they think they were donating data bundles?” reads the tweet.
Comedian’s Tweet
Are contents shared above true? NO!
It is identified by 211 Check that the over 59,000 AstraZeneca Vaccines donated by the African Union, Africa CDC, and MTN arrived on Monday, 29th March 2021 to South Sudan, and were received by Ministry of Health’s Undersecretary Mayen Machut and MTN South Sudan Chief Executive Officer Gordian Kyomukama at Juba International Airport.
When contacted by 211 Check, a National Health Ministry official said the vaccines were supposed to be administered to over 29,000 healthcare workers across South Sudan.
So what happened?
On Tuesday April 13, 2021, an official from the Ministry of Health told Reuters News Agency that the vaccines expired and will not be used.
As can be seen in the below picture, the vaccines were manufactured on 16th October, 2020 and expired on 13th April, 2021.
Dr. Atem Riak Anyoun is the Director General for Primary Healthcare at the Ministry of Health.
As part of his job description, he oversees vaccine deployment across the country.
Dr. Atem confirmed to 211 Check on Friday that the 59,283 doses of the vaccines donated by the African Union and MTN on Monday, 29th March 2021 expired on 13th April 2021 and will not be used.
“The vaccines from MTN have expired on the 13th of April. We are not using any expired vaccines at all. When a vaccine expires, it will not be used and that is it” said Atem.
Note: This means that the AstraZeneca vaccines donated to South Sudan by the African Union, Africa CDC and MTN expired in the country two weeks after arrival.
Meanwhile, COVID-19 Incident Manager Dr. Richard Laku told journalists at the weekly media briefing on Sunday that they could not use the vaccines because the Drug and Food Control Authority doesn’t allow the use of medicines with such a short shelf lifespan.
The health authorities say they are currently using the 132,000 doses of the first batch of AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccines obtained directly from the COVAX facility last month. These vaccines are also expected to expire in July.
What is the safe lifespan of the AstraZeneca vaccines?
According to AstraZeneca, the vaccine can be stored, transported, and handled at normal refrigerated conditions (two-eight degrees Celsius/36-46 degrees Fahrenheit) for at least six months and administered within existing healthcare settings.

Military officials have confirmed that Humanitarian Affairs and Disaster Management Minister Peter Mayen did not shoot into the air to disrupt women’s football match in the Aweil town of Warrap State as reported by various citizen journalists and alternative media on social media platforms.
Over the weekend, many South Sudanese netizens and activists went online to condemn the act as seen in the below picture, which stated that Minister Mayen shot into the air, demanding the immediate removal of his alleged wife Aluel Garang from the field.
The news that went viral on both local and international media claimed that Minister Mayen on Saturday, 17th March 2021 shot into the air to disrupt an ongoing South Sudan’s Women’s League match between the Juba Super Stars and the Aweil Women team striking for the removal of his wife.
“Minister shoots to stop a football game and take his wife home,” reads one of the headlines. Another of the far-post reads, “South Sudanese Minister disrupts match to forcefully take out wife.”
“Peter Mayen opens fire at Aweil Freedom to protest wife’s participation in women’s game,” reads the headline of Sudans Post.
African Sports on Monday posted, “South Sudan’s Minister of Humanitarian Affairs & Disaster Management Mr. Peter Mayen Majondit forced a women’s league to be stopped as he stormed the field with gunshots to demand the removal of his wife, Aluel Garang, known as Aluel Messi who plays for Aweil FC.”
Officials of Aweil Football Association also claim that the minister shot into the air to scare spectators around him, according to Eye Radio’s report.
What exactly happened?
According to some sources, Peter Mayen is alleged to have paid a surprising visit to her wife’s family home on Saturday only to find out their three-month-old baby (Mayen Junior) crying in absence of the mother. Inquiring the where-about of the mother, he was told Aluel was for a football match.
He then went to the playground where he requested the Aweil coach to substitute his wife, Aluel Garang. It is alleged she was substituted. This indicates that there was no force used.
However, chaos ensued when spectators blocked his car from leaving, with gates closed, while others started hitting his car and reportedly threatened to beat him up.
Peter Mayen Majongdit told the Juba Monitor newspaper on Sunday that he did not shoot into the air. He instead said his bodyguard opened fire to disperse surrounding crowds. According to him, he had gone to bring home his wife who has a small baby.
South Sudan Football Association (SSFA) also says the substitution issue was amicably solved but the chaos started during the departure of the minister.
It should also be noted that the game did not stop. It was played full time.
What does the FIFA rules say about women on maternity?
211 Check talked to an official from the South Sudan Football Association (SSFA) on whether they have independent rules governing football in the country and according to them, they work with rules channeled from FIFA which say, “A female player is entitled to maternity leave, defined as a minimum period of 14 weeks…”

On Sunday, NBS Television – Uganda posted on its Facebook page quoting its journalist Daniel Lutaaya as saying that “the Ugandan drivers now have to drive for about 52 hours for a distance of 3,613 kilometers from Elegu to Juba”.
