I believe that Ekweremadu is telling the truth. Nigerians are too smart to themselves. Do you think a "poor" boy doesn't have the brains to lie to the heavens? The UK government should make him undergo the Polygraph Machine, otherwise known as the LIE DETECTOR...

You will find out that everything from him, is a fat lie!

LienwaltAbel:
The problem is not his age, the problem is consent. Of course, the lie is going to earn him a good hiding, but the problem about consent is another thing entirely. Even if his family says that they did consent, the UK isn't Nigeria. The individual is more important. Ike don meet him Waterloo laslas.

Fashdeejay:

The boy's younger brother said he is 25 and not 15 or 22.

Story for the gods. Who doesn't know how easy it is to manipulate the system in Nigeria.

Nigeria that doesn't have data bank. Which 22yr old boy go wan dash out his kidney when he never enjoy for this life.

The case looks as if the Ekweremadu wanted to play the boy and the boy later played them.
It's simply a case of fastest fingers First.

See the kind Hardened face way Ekweremadu way PLAY

SMARTMOTORS:
Please help a brother...I have been a Nairalander for over 5years but I don't know how to do the following:
1. Mention( to reply someone's comment)
2. Post or upload something on the forum.

Yoighaman:
Even if it is established that the boy is 32 years old, the fundamental allegations levelled against Ike goes beyond that. I do not pity him, God will deal with them one after the other, they have been destroying our country, their lives should be destroyed as well. Wicked criminals.

For the boy, he should just seek asylum, that he would be gruesomely murdered if he's returned to Nigeria, that's all. God answers our prayers in different and diverse ways.

Afterall, Ike and his likes have been playing Nigerians for so long, the boy should play him too, good for him, what was he expecting? Sow mango, reap banana?

Ewu.

FlipModeSquade:
He already told one big lie..
The UK is not going to be very receptive to an adult claiming to be under aged..
If he told one obvious lie,what other lies is he hiding..

kuboy:
I told people here that you can't obtain international passport without going to the office for capturing . But he was telling us in his Facebook that the just brought passport for him .can you imagine

FlipModeSquade:
The boy's story is already not tenable..
Claiming to be a child whilst you are a full grown adult,casts his story in a dubious light..
Criminal case or not,he and his claims are at the center of the issue..

obailala:
Agreed! But please what do you suggest as the proper way to verify age?

grandstar:


If he claims asylum, they will just send him to Rwanda

SenecaTheYonger:


Be like you dey ment. Even core northeners don’t go to office to get captured e come be senator kidney packages

eldoradoxx:
The boy took advantage of the way British police works, lied about his age to gain sympathy and asylum of course, but he didn't know that the person he wants to rope in is a sound lawyer of over 30 years standing that knows his onion. Ekweremadu didn't go through backdoor. He wrote British authorities notifying them of the boys reasons for being in UK. Am sure when he went for his visa interview same questions would have been raised. He just wanted to japa after eating Ekweremadu's money

onuman:


Does a younger brother know when his older brother was born?
Besides, your response did not address my point which is: someone born in Oct 2000 is 21 years old, not 22 years old.

backnbeta:
Ekweremadu is a typical selfish Nigerian polithiefcian who took advantage of the bad economic situation of Nigeria to strike a deal with a scammer

9jaRealist:


His age is IRRELEVANT…

Age minority may be an aggravating factor (in sentencing)…
But it is substantively IRRELEVANT to the offense being charged.

NinjaXmetahuman:
so other regions that were voting out their bad leaders and chosing different parties apart from pdp were experiencing free and fair election abi?

tunapawizzy:

Unfortunately for the Ekweremadus, organ donation has to be from a CLose relative, where is the proof that they are relatives. You have to prove why the donation should be for Sonia and nobody else, which means you have to explain the closeness. And the boy has to explain why it has to be Sonia. Have they met before.

NgeneUkwenu:
You don't need to love Ekweremmadu to know, that the poor guy actually played the devil.

I hope Uk sees reason to drop the case or most reffered to the originating country where the bulk of the allegation took place.

However, shame to the IPOB Labour party supporters for celebrating too early.

Ike will definitely be exonerated.

Kei144:
A boy that carries blocks or concrete at a building site doesn't have the kind of sophistication some people are ascribing to him. People need to visit a typical Ebonyi State village from where this boy went to Abuja to be working in building sites in order to guage the sophistication of such a boy. I live in Awka and I interact with a lot of young men from different states who work in building sites. They won't have any need for birth certificate or NIN. Birth certificate and NIN were obviously obtained for David while he was in Ekweremadu's house simply because they are necessary in order to obtain international passport and to travel. David never influenced what date birth that will be on the documents.

I am more likely to believe the story told by David. The reality is that a boy of his kind of background doesn't know anything called asylum or scamming. Does he even know any possible place to go in London if he is disconnected from Ekweremadu? A lot of people who say that David is a scammer do not understand what it means to suddenly transport a boy from David's background to the middle of London. Even a Nigerian degree holder that never travelled out of Nigeria before will get lost if he is suddenly transported to the middle of London and left to find his way. People who have never travelled out of the country cannot even imagine the complexity involved.

Lure a Yoruba boy that knows only Oshogbo into a bus and transport him to Onitsha and abandon him there and see how far his reasoning could save him. Then imagine transporting a poor building site worker from Ebonyi State to London. How could he quickly become a scammer and know about asylum? As David said in his story, luck was on his side. Doctor Harry got to know what he was told when they were bringing him to London and realized that he had been scammed and immediately called police. If not for Doctor Harry, David couldn't have done anything to save himself.

Yeyeoldman:
Are Nigerians daft or what? You people really think the British are stupid? Has any of you even thought about the possibility that Sen. Ekweremadu help him procure the said passport? The way we limit our scope of reasoning makes you wonder if we are even normal at all. Does the fact that the passport states that the Vulnerable young man is 22 make any difference if Ekweremadu used his influence in getting the passport? I keep saying this, Nigerians are not ready to fight and end corruption. They are just angry that they not benefitting from the corrupt system. Selfish and Greedy people. There is nothing they can't justify.

immortalcrown passport are machine readable you can’t stay in your house and obtain passport. The is thinking that after all these he have stay in Uk:
Does this mean Ekweremmadu is not guilty of any offense? If yes, congratulations to him, and his critics should rest. But if he is guilty in any way, why so much concentration on the boy's age?

Also, why has immigration quickly confirmed the boy's age but may spend eternity trying to confirm the authenticity of the passport used by the boy?

I am not making any claim in favour of or against Ekweremmadu. I am just pointing out the errors in Nigerian system.

Brendaniel:


As long as it was financially induced which we know it most likely is, Ekweremadu will find it very hard to get out of this, it's funny how people who hate Igbos are the ones supporting Ekweremadu, doesn't that tell you that they are the ones supporting the imposing of bad leaders like Uzodinma, Orji-uzor and co on the good people of Igbo land...

We reject bad leadership in Igbo land
