This is not an issue, in #29119 we have upgraded the Clipboard package which does uses NativeEventEmitter. To remove this error rebuild android app and it goes away.

After building the android app this issue won't come, so we can close this.

Hello sir
I want to propose one solution to this.
For this, I have to check If you are using third-party libraries, especially those that bridge React Native with native code, and review their documentation and issues on their GitHub repository. It's possible that the library you are using has a known issue, or there might be specific instructions to follow.
