So I have an app that I need to build for android, but on running
ionic cordova prepare android
gives following error in the command prompt
(node:2775) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: CordovaError: Failed to fetch platform [email protected] Probably this is either a connection problem, or platform spec is incorrect.

followed by some similar, then some linting errors
I have ran following commands in before to fix another error regarding permission
sudo chmod -R 777 /usr/local/lib/node_modules/cordova
sudo chown -R username ~/.config/configstore/update-notifier-cordova.json
sudo chown -R mehulthanki /usr/local/lib/node_modules/cordova
And lastly to fix above commands
sudo chmod -R 777 usr
I thin I messed up ownership of files and permissions while trying to fix another previous error, which might have been caused due to ionic and cordova being installed with sudo, and actually yo fix that I ran the last chmod command mentioned above, so I could uninstall everything: node, npm, ionic, and cordova and reinstall ionic and cordova without sudo, but now there are other errors..
Any idea how I could fix the permission and ownership issues ?
EDIT On trying run
sudo ionic cordova prepare android
It gives the error
sudo: /usr/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set
