SOME LITTLE DETAILS YOU DID NOT KNOW ABOUT IN THE EKWEREMADU CASE.

David Ukpo Nwamini is the 21-year-old Lagos street hawker who was to give his kidney to Ekweremadu’s daughter IN London. When he was interviewed at the hospital in London, they asked him if he knew he was to donate his kidney to Sonia Ekweremadu.

He first told them that he had no money to donate. They explained to him that it was his kidney that he was to donate. He asked them what was kidney.

Initially, the doctors thought it was a question of language, since David’s English was not good enough. However, they eventually understood that David did not know which human organ was called kidney.

In other words, he did not know what organ he was to give Sonia. That led the doctors to conclude that the procedure was not well-explained to David and that is the number one requirement by law.

According to the law, you must explain to the organ donor the procedure and all the health risks associated with the procedure. It is only then that the donor is taken to have informedly consented.
When the doctors found that David did not understand what he was about to get involved in, they declared him a mismatch.

The term “mismatch” is a technical generic language to indicate that the proposed organ harvesting has not met all the requirements.

Many in Nigeria have misunderstood the term “mismatch” in this case to meant that David’s kidney was not suitable for Sonia.

No! There was nothing wrong with David’s Kidney.

To donate an organ, the facts must match both the law and the science governing the procedure. While the kidney matched the scientific requirement, the facts did not match the legal requirement.

So, it was declared a mismatch. To help you understand it better, the term “mismatch” means there is a discrepancy.

The doctors who interviewed David did not and could not have determined that a crime was committed. The doctors did not have sufficient information to reach such conclusion then.

They felt uncomfortable with the discrepancies in the information they had about the donor and his decisions and whether he had made up his mind.

For instance, the doctors did not get involved in how David was brought to them or whether he was paid. It was not their duty to deal with that. It was actually when Ekweremadu and Dr. Obinna attempted to return David to Nigeria that the problem started.

David expected that he would be given a job in London as he was told before he left Nigeria. They did not give him job and they did not send him to school. Instead of all he was promised, he was asked to prepare to return to Nigeria and David ran away from the house where he was kept.

As hunger wired him, he reported himself to the police. To win the immediate protection of the police, he lied about his age by telling them he was 15.

It was when he was interviewed by the police that the information came out which established that a crime was committed. For instance, it was at the police station that they asked him if he was paid money and he said yes he was paid N270,000. When the police checked the WhatsApp chats between Ekweremadu and Dr. Obeta they realized that Ekweremadu actually paid 4.5 million for Obeta to pay to David. But Obeta only paid David N270,000 and pocketed the rest.

In fact, Ekweremadu tried to keep himself away from certain details of the deal. That was why Ekweremadu never discussed money with David. In fact, he did not deal directly with David. That was what made it possible for Obeta to cheat him. Ekweremadu believed that the 4.5 million went to David. But since he was not dealing with David directly, he never knew that Obeta pocketed most of the money.

However, the law viewed Ekweremadu’s decision not to deal directly with David as a typical behavior of a big man who knew that he is getting involved in a crime. He would usually try to create some distance between him and the crime, yet he will be funding the crime from afar.

Otherwise, how come you never wanted to meet the boy that is giving his kidney to your daughter and whom you called cousin to your daughter (which actually makes him your nephew)? Rather than see the non-direct dealing as evidence of his innocence, it was seen as deliberate or willful ignorance aimed at evading legal responsibility.

One of the key factors that worked against Ekweremadu was that he lied. On three official documents he signed, he stated that David was Sonia’s cousin. But in all the WhatsApp chats he had with the doctor and his own brother over the matter, he referred to David as “that guy”. Hence the question: “You knew he was not Sonia’s cousin. While you signed that he was her cousin, when you wanted to say the truth, you referred to him as “that guy”, meaning you didn’t know him or even remember his name”. Ekweremadu admitted in court that he lied and apologized.

NOTE: I decided to provide these details because I have read somewhere it was being said that David misled Ekweremadu and took advantage of him. No, David is a real victim. He did not manipulate them. He was manipulated by Dr. Obinna Obeta, who was working for the Ekweremadu.

MrAgbako:
If they are to arrest obi or datti there must be a reason for it. If they breaks any law then they will definitely be arrest and nothing will happen. Nobody is above the law. The question is have they broken any law? Obi should try himself and see if he will be arrested or not

According to your APC people, Obi and Datti have committed Treason and Felony against the Nigerian State. Enough for them to be arrested

helinues:
In Nigeria standard, this 2023 election was credible.

Were you people expecting 100% free, fair and credible election in Nigeria before?

. We were expecting like 80% credibility, we didn't get 70, nor 60 , neither did we get 50.. very poor by all standards

2046 na beans ?

Labour Party doing really well in South West, scoring good away goals.

The truth is that the old naira is still a legal tender technically. You can't use it to buy goods and services but you can still deposit same in your bank via CBN. The POS guys here in my area still receive the old notes because they can send it to the bank. So vote buying with the old notes is still very possible.

PrinceOfLagos:
This is not good

. Very good. It's biting hard. My business is suffering, my business is seasonal, once the rain starts it's no impressive. The politicians already have the new notes, while we are in a standstill. Mind you I support Peter Obi, but who dey cry dey see road

I am an Obidient, but this policy isn't working, instead it's biting hard on the already precarious situation. It seriously hindering my business. I dey vex for the powers that be in this country

This is where we need real violence. If violence is continually meted out on Lawan , he will have no choice than to give up. This is day light robbery

New notes will only come after election, when politicians use it for vote buying, it will now circulate. Nigeria is a joke.

Mustiboy:
There’s no way the deadline wouldn’t be extended.

The old notes are still very much in circulation, and there’s no way banks will take them all in 4 days.

And out of the 4days , 2days are none working days (weekend). E no just possible

It's really sad that such happened in the first place but very nice Peter Obi condemned it. Even at the nick of time

OP, at of all he said, it's the simplest grammar " cancer " you chose to use . I no blame you jare

devilmaycry:
Lol...
Omoh the cry go loud

DennisEche:

I listened to Kwankwaso interview, he actually made a valid point. He is a great politician. He spoke against Politics of religion and ethnicity been championed by some of the constenstant

He said that because the endorsements are not in his favour. It's the same Kwankwaso that came on air and said that the northerners will only vote for northerners. Isn't that politics of ethnicity? He is a known bigot

Felahkoutty:
Please guys what is the meaning of pipe dream?

.


Unattainable dream

Obasanjo even vied for the position of Secretary General of the UNITED NATIONS.

My own issue is with Omosebi. As a registered NGO, I think Omosebi wasn't professional enough. You were informed of this issue last year according to you, you adviced them to break into the place and there wasn't a follow up on whether the action was carried out or not. You should have done better by following up on them. For them to have informed you then, I believe they needed you to help out. Well may her soul rest in peace

With the way things are going, APC and PDP might finally merge to fight their their common enemy in Peter Obi of LP. Yeye people

Kind2:
Please someone should help me, have been pleading for little assistance so I can eat but no help and I have ulcer now am very sick and I can't afford to buy drugs or even to eat. Am still pleading, please no matter how small please help me so I can buy some medicine and if it is to eat please. May God replenish you in Jesus name Amen

Are You From Delta State?

Valkrie:
Tinubu is obviously not a smart crook after all...!!

He is still playing politics of yesterday years...!!! His touts should wake him up....Nigeria have grown past that level now....!!

You spit on people face and still expect them to embrace you...!!!

The disgrace Tinubu would get from Nigerians would send him to his early grave....!!!

Eleribu....!!!

. Which kind early grave, if he dies now, at close to 80 or so, is that early ?

Who asked you if you are a lesbian or not. That's your biz. Godforbid a lesbian fighting for me. I am Igbo

Suffering and smiling is the motto

. The people that have the mind don't have that kind of money
