The package is currently deprecated and hence not supported by flutter. You could use an alternative pacakage such as (https://github.com/odunboye/flutterwave-flutter.git) recommended by flutter in (https://github.com/Flutterwave/flutterwave-flutter/issues/73).This solved the problem

To use this package, use the command below in your pubspec.yaml

flutterwave:
    git:

      url: https://github.com/odunboye/flutterwave-flutter.git
      ref: development

then run pub get and you should be fine. Use the documentation on the read.md to guide you further on how to use the package.
