Precious Eze, publisher of ‘’News Platform NG’’, Nigeria’s frontline news website, has issued a formal retraction regarding previously published reports about Guaranty Trust Holding Company (GTCO).
News Platform NG hereby retracts its earlier publication dated, 19th September, 2024 with the title ‘’GTBank Faces Internal Crisis As EFCC, FIRS Investigate Alleged False Profit Declaration’’.

‘’News Platform NG’ regrets the misinformation and ask that the general public discountenance our said earlier report.
