THE FINDINGS Findings by The FactCheckHub show that the claim is MISLEADING. Although Kwankwaso visited Gombe state on Saturday, July 2, to commission the Gombe State party office of the NNPP, according to the Independent newspaper’s report, the image shared to show forth the crowd that welcomed him is, however, old. A Google Reverse Image Search conducted on the image revealed that it has been on the internet since 2018.
