The editorial team of Apples Bite wishes to issue a formal correction and apology to our readers and the general public regarding our earlier report titled “US Ambassador Condemns Governor Dapo Abiodun’s Lavish Birthday Party And State Governors’ Excessive Spending.”
Upon further review and verification of our sources, we acknowledge that our report contained a misleading headline and inferences that suggested the US Ambassador directly indicted His Excellency, Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State, specifically regarding his 65th birthday celebration. This claim has been found to be inaccurate.
We hereby retract and recall any direct attribution of the US Embassy’s statement to Governor Abiodun’s birthday celebration. The US Embassy’s statement addressed general concerns about state governors’ spending patterns and did not specifically mention Governor Abiodun or his birthday event.
