Every page on Niriliya Huaren follows the same rules: official and reputable sources first, every figure and fact checked and cited, and nothing that cannot be confirmed goes into the text. We use AI tools to help with research and first drafts, but the writing rules and publishing standards are set and enforced by our editorial team.
How every page is checked
- Topic chosen from reader needs and the content calendar
- Research: official sources first (government, regulators, embassy)
- Writing: Chinese and English written separately
- Check: every number, date and link verified
- Update: revised and re-dated when rules change
Key points
- Source order: government and regulators, then embassies and international bodies, then reputable media and professional firms, then everything else.
- Every figure carries a year and a source; unconfirmed figures are left out.
- Every page shows when it was last checked and is updated when things change.
- AI assists; the rules and final responsibility are ours.
- Affiliate and advertising income does not influence content or rankings.
Sources
We start with Nigerian government departments and regulators (immigration, tax authorities, state gaming regulators), the Chinese Embassy and consulates, and China’s Ministry of Commerce. Next come international organisations, law and accounting firms, and established Nigerian and Chinese media. Each article ends with a list of sources.
Fact-checking
- Numbers, dates, fees and legal provisions must appear in the cited source.
- Where sources disagree, we say so or leave the point out.
- We never invent phone numbers, addresses, fees, people or quotes. Where we cannot confirm something, we tell readers to check the latest official notice.
- For news, we go back to the original reporting to check time, place and casualty figures before publishing.
Updates
Visa, tax, currency and gambling rules change quickly. Each page shows its last-checked date, and we update the most affected pages first after a major change, such as our e-visa guide and our Nigeria Tax Act 2026 guide.
AI-assisted research
We use AI tools to search for material, organise notes and draft text. They work to written rules set by our editors: cite sources, list anything unconfirmed separately and never make up facts. The editorial team checks content against the same rules before it goes live. AI does not replace editorial judgement, and the editorial team is responsible for what we publish.
Corrections
When we find an error we fix it promptly and update the page’s checked date; significant corrections that could affect a reader’s decision are noted in the text. You can report errors through our contact page.
Affiliate links and independence
Some pages in our gambling section contain affiliate links. We only feature operators licensed in the relevant state and rate them on licensing, payments, terms and player protection, not on commission. Gambling content is for readers aged 18+ and carries responsible gambling notices. More on how we are funded is on our about page.
