Disputed The sentence appears verbatim in the source PDF at lines 1074-1077, and the article was published on March 9, 2026. But the source attributes the text to a multi-author journal article—listing many coauthors, including K.O. Shakioye—rather than to Shakioye K alone, so this cannot be verified here as a single-author quote.
