A post shared on Facebook in Kenya claims that the World Health Organization is offering free internet access, so people can easily find information about the Covid-19 pandemic . It claims that users can get 4GB data per day till 30th april if they register with their email addresses. The post includes a link to an external website, but this website does not mention the WHO or free data packages. It appears to be clickbait , and may carry possibly harmful links. (Note: Please be careful as malware from suspicious websites could damage your computer or phone and compromise your privacy.) ‘Fake news. Ignore’ Similar posts have been shared on Twitter , with the promise that the WHO is giving away 1 gigabyte per day. Is the international organisation really offering free data? No. WHO Kenya have shared a screenshot of one of the posts with a red FAKE NEWS stamp on it, on their official Twitter account . They tweeted Fake news! Ignore. The claims of free data are false. – Grace Gichuhi
