The statement reads;
“We have become aware of recent claims made by Ugo Nwokolo regarding his appearance on The Honest Bunch Podcast. For the sake of clarity, we would like to set the record straight.
Mr. Ugo Nwokolo appeared on our platform for a paid appearance, during which he had the freedom to select a topic of his choice-which he did. At no point did we suggest a specific topic to him, nor was he instructed on what to say, either as a team or individually. Furthermore, he was never pressured to discuss any particular issue. He arrived with a notepad outlining his points.We are truly shocked that someone who lacks integrity and dignity-willing to spread falsehoods for fame-has been crowned by the prestigious Mr. World Nigeria (@Mrworldnigeria). It is concerning to think that this individual is now set to represent us on the global stage.
We remain steadfast in our commitment to transparency and value the diversity of opinions expressed on our platform, regardless of our personal views.
We kindly ask that the institution and the Silverbird Group look into the character of this man.”
