I'm not entirely sure what your question is. If you could provide some more information about what happened, what led up to this situation, and a link to the page containing the unverified commit, it'll help me better answer your question.

You can also click on the "Unverified" label on your commit for more information about why the commit couldn't be verified.

Based on the information you have provided, it seems like one of two things has happened:

1. You have just pushed commits to GitHub that GitHub could not verify were authored by you (a.k.a. they don't have a verifiable digital signature)
2. Commits that were previously labeled Verified have become unverified.

In the first case, most likely you have enabled vigilant mode in Settings → SSH and GPG keys, which marks any commit you have authored on GitHub as unverified if it hasn't been signed with a GPG or SSH key you have registered in your GitHub account. To learn more about setting up commit signing, I recommend reading the documentation. If you're interested, I am a Windows user and recommend gpg4win for commit signing.

If you did sign your commits but they're showing up as unverified, make sure you've added the key to your account in Settings → SSH and GPG keys. You have to paste the key in a certain format, and you can refer to the documentation for more info on that.

Alternatively, you could disable vigilant mode, also in Settings → SSH and GPG keys, if you are not interested in commit signatures.

In the second case, you might have revoked a GPG key that was associated with some of your previous verified commits. Unfortunately, you do have to make sure you keep all those GPG keys registered if you want the status to show up as "Verified".

i need your help,
i have done a commit on my remote repo, and it appeared to be unverified.
I thought the problem was from the gpg key but i have configured it yet the same issue, still failing
what can really do to stop this problem

Make GPG key first.
Register the GPG key to your Github.
Change your commit command based on GPG key.
