Upon reviewing the post, it includes a link inviting readers to read “full details here.” However, when this link is followed, it leads to a dead-end.
Upon visiting the website Igbotimes Magazine, one is immediately bombarded with an overwhelming number of advertisements. The excessive ads undermine the user experience, making navigation cumbersome and distracting.
A thorough search of credible media outlets was conducted to verify the statements purportedly made by the president.
Interestingly, no other reputable news sources have reported these statements.
