However, it is important to verify the accuracy of this claim before sharing it with others.

Viral Tweet: “Chimaka a 20 years old Igbo girl that Peter Obi sends to England on free scholarship grand, has become the first black girl to transplant heart into another human within 30 minutes.”

Mandy News fact’s ruling: False

This is why: The girl’s name is not Chimaka, she’s not 20 years old based on our finding, she’s not anywhere on the internet as the first black girl to transplant a human heart into another human within 30 minutes, and she has never attended any English universities. But one social media post makes the false claim that the Yoruba native was sponsored by a Labour Party presidential candidate. 

This is the truth: The girl who is known as Candace on Twitter is an event planner and a doctor; she is a native of Yoruba, and her real name is Wuraola. According to her, she took the viral pictures years ago in medical school. MandyNews.com also learned that she recently completed her undergraduate program at Ternopil National Medical University, Ukraine. On the claim of her school’s sponsorship, she said, “My parents sponsored my education.”

On the Elon Musk-owned platform, the tweet had received over 900,000 views as of the time of this writing.
