This piece isn't about taking sides between the supposed donor and the senator.

But it's a lesson I've learnt from deprived people.

Each time I give people lift in my car, I often lost valuables as soon as they alight.

Both the senator and the young lad are deprived people and opportunists. How?

Senator saw him as expendable while the boy would do anything possible to remain in the UK even if it means putting the couple behind bars.

Lesson to be learnt is: be very careful dealing with deprived people. They have zero principles, integrity and emotions.

The boy outsmarted them from the start .. they where emotional , he was corny

A Father watching his daughter breathless gasping a clutching her neck because of fluid, sweat and urine buildup In the organs like lungs and body

don't. try. to cheat others

Nigerian politicians don't learn any lesson.They are stubborn

Ekweremadu NOT have even one of his extended family members that can donate for his daughter speaks volumes!

If HE has put things in place in Nigeria, impacted young people's life, I am certain, Nigerians will troupe out to donate there organ willingly for his daughter.

Deprived or not, I wish the ekweremadus' all the best in there new found home.

I hope other politicians are watching?!

Another lesson is Ekweremadu's should have sponsored legislation to make buying organs legal in Nigeria. Next option go do you business where its legal.

It is not illegal to buy organs in Nigeria as long as it is consented to.
Ekweremadu's ignorance cost him his freedom, no smart person
goes to UK for transplant.
