This retraction follows the receipt of legal correspondence dated 23rd and 24th February 2026 from Henzel & Whitaker, Barristers & Solicitors, acting on behalf of Captain Susan Ekpoh. Through that correspondence and the detailed professional clarification provided therein by Captain Ekpoh’s legal team, we have arrived at a complete and informed understanding of the matter. It is that clarification, not merely the legal pressure, that compels and anchors this retraction.
