So the British police, hospital, and courts are lying? The people in Britain created the fake passport they have in their possession? When are the couple’s lawyers going to make the police, hospital, and court retract what you feel is a lie? The passport will be used as evidence, shouldn’t they have done that by now? Read it. They say it’s a passport with a fake age.

No but I know that Nigerian politicians are famous for producing fake documents. Some even use fake Degrees and certificates. The rest of the world knows it too.

paramakina202:
Because the boy has already reported himself to police before the date of departure.

Wrong. They were arrested at the airport and it was then that the boy was taken into care.

chuksbogus:
These are lies. He was never said to be 41 yrs and wasn't only tested and he wasn't a match. Problem started when he noticed they will be going back to Naija and he was the one that went to the police with his cock and bull story and not what this story is saying.

were you there?

In order to sound intelligent you ended up stupidly dumb

The CG immigration in Nigeria here has confirmed the age bearing passport to be 21.
We have also seen pics of the said passport.

How would a 15 yr old be in possession of a 41yr old stated passport and not even be aware? Why did he agree to cross over with fraudulent documents without raising an alarm?

It simply points to the fact that he himself is dubious!

So the British police, hospital, and courts are lying about the passport that they’ll be using as evidence, right? I guess the Brits went to Nigeria and made that fake passport themselves, right? When are the lawyers going to call them out on the lie? Never, right?
The onus isn’t on the boy, no matter how hard you try to make it. The onus is on the two people sitting in jail.

Lol this same Nigeria av seen someone wu went for Driver License at FRSC nd dem issue him Fake License bak den buh I don't know about now wey NIN don dey nd I think dey av upgrade...


That's why I made sure I didn't take my Covid Vaccine in Nigeria before dem go carry fake stuff give me...

So Naturally when you acquire something in Nigeria you need to revertify it yourself make one staff no go put you for problem...


So this case is either the boy too don go forge fake documents or who procure the passport too don go cut corners to tender by July the truth will come out

Till they get to court and we hear from both sides.

And why should a 15 yr old boy be in possession of fake documents and be suitably confortable with it?

You’re right because one of my past clients had two different “official” Nigerian birth certificates with the dates of births more than 5 years apart.

That’s the million dollar question.

Naajjii:
Then why don't you do the transplant in Nigeria? Besides where did you get that from that payment for organ donation is not illegal in Nigeria?

It is not.
Please let's not even begin to argue this.
There's no law anywhere in Nigeria that prohibits that.
Law doesn't deal with sentiments. The fact of the matter is that the financial inducement - if there was - happened in Nigeria and not the UK.

Even if happened in the UK, the organ has not been transplanted yet. So at best, it is a case of ATTEMPT to financially induce.

Fernandezisback my dear I'm really tired as well. No one knows the true story and what actually happened. Today we will see a different thing, Tomorrow another contradictory one altogether.

If it's coming from 1stGenAmerican then it's authentic info.

One guy once came on Nairaland trying to claim victim even though he was guilty of the accusations.. the moniker was demystified

You should know many Nigerians don't reason logically.

As far as they are concerned, a man should be able to extend his own life by exploiting the life of another.

Your current president which you support did same, that's why he is alive right now.

I quit reading when they said the boy was picked from the streets of Lagos.... which street of Lagos?

Ekweremadu should have done his homework well before taking that idiot to the UK....my heart goes out to Sonia

The University of Lincoln has banned a visiting professor who tried to 'harvest organs from a 15-year that had been trafficked to the UK using a fake passport'.

A consultant working in a NHS hospital refused to remove the vital organ a 15-year-old who was allegedly trafficked to London from the streets of Lagos by the former deputy president of the Nigerian Senate and his wife , a court heard.

Ike Ekweremadu, 60, and Beatrice Ekweremadu, 55, are accused of taking the homeless youngster to the UK from Nigeria to transplant his organs into their daughter who is suffering from kidney failure.

The doctor at the Royal Free in Camden became suspicious about whether the alleged victim was aware he was the donor of the kidney and whether he was 41 as his passport claimed.

The 15-year-old was given the passport of a 41-year-old in order to get into the UK, but did not know he was there to donate a kidney until he went a hospital appointment in London, a court heard yesterday.

After he arrived in the capital in February he had a string of medical appointments about kidney donation, but a consultant at the Royal Free Hospital in Hampstead, North London, became concerned about the boy's real age and if he knew he was there to donate an organ, it is alleged.

Mr Ekweremadu has been an elected senator at the Abuja-based parliament since 2003 after moving into politics after years as a lawyer. His wife, five years his junior, is an academic and doctor and also a major public figure in Nigeria. They are believed to have four adult children. Both deny trafficking the boy.

Prosecutor Damla Ayas told Uxbridge Magistrates Court yesterday: 'The victim was 15. In Nigeria he was approached by both defendants. He was homeless on the streets of Lagos. They deceived him and promised him a better life in the UK. He was given a passport for a 41-year-old. The passport was illegally obtained by these defendants

'He was provided with a medical travel visa saying the purpose of the travel was to provide medical treatment for the defendants' daughter who was undergoing dialysis in relation to a number of health issues.

'It was premeditated, it was planned. Blood tests were obtained in Nigeria and he travelled to the UK in February this year.

He was taken to several medical appointments in particular a medical appointment at the Royal Free Hospital and was spoken to by a consultant about the organ harvesting for a kidney transplant.

'The consultant was concerned about his actual age and was concerned he was not aware he was the donor of the kidney. He only found out that the purpose of his visit was for an organ transplant when he visited the hospital'.

Police were alerted to potential offences under modern slavery laws last month

Ekweremadu has been in the UK for at least the past fortnight having met with members of the Nigerian community in Britain in Lincoln around ten days ago.

They arrested the couple two days ago at Heathrow Airport as they attempted to board a plane to Turkey - where it was suggested that the procedure could take place - the court heard.

Ekweremadu, 60, is said to have had £20,000 on him on at the time of his arrest, according to prosecutors.

The child is now under the care of safeguarding authorities and the Metropolitan Police, officials say.

Ekweremadu and accountant wife Beatrice, 55, are charged with conspiracy to arrange or facilitate travel of another person with a view to exploitation, namely organ harvesting.

The senator was wearing a grey sweater while his wife was wearing a black and white knitted cardigan at Uxbridge Magistrates' Court yesterday.

Prosecutor Damla Ayas said: 'It is conspiracy in relation to human trafficking offences for the purposes of organ harvesting. The victim in this case is 15 years old

'They the couple were interviewed at the police station. Both of the defendants have provided a prepared statement.

'Mr Ekweremadu in his prepared statement denied allegations of human trafficking.

'He said at no stage has he arranged transport for anyone with intention to exploit them.'

His wife similarly denied the allegations in her prepared statement, the court heard.

Gavin Irwin, representing Ekweremadu, said: 'There is no question this is a serious allegation. Mr Ekweremadu is a member of the senate in Nigeria.

'He has previously held an even more senior role as deputy president of the senate.

'He is a member of the bar in Nigeria. He is a principal in a law firm that bears his name.

'Those issues taken together go way beyond him being a person of good character…rather that he has led a blameless life as a public servant.'

Mr Irwin added that the allegations were 'nothing short of preposterous'.

Antonia Gray, for Mrs Ekweremadu, said: 'She has never been complicit or involved in any alleged illegal trafficking of any young person.

'She is a financial accountant…with an unblemished record.'

The couple have an address they could stay at in Willesden, northwest London, the court heard.

The prosecutor made an application to adjourn matters for 14 days.

Ms Ayas said: 'In respect of these offences Attorney General consent is required and the Crown require 14 days for that to be obtained.'

Magistrate Lois Sheard said: 'These are serious allegations and these matters are now adjourned until 7 July back here at Uxbridge.'

Ms Sheard remanded both defendants into custody ahead of their hearing next month.

The Ekweremadus are charged with 'conspiring to arrange or facilitate travel of another person with a view to exploitation....between 1 August 2021 and 5 May 2022 within the jurisdiction of Central Criminal Court'.

The investigation was launched by the Met's Specialist Crime team after detectives were alerted to potential offences under modern slavery legislation in May 2022.

The Met Police has confirmed that the boy is safe and being looked after. Mr Ekweremadu was held with Nwanneka Ekweremadu in Britain this month.

Mr Ekweremadu has been an elected senator at the Abuja-based parliament since 2003 after moving into politics after years as a lawyer.

His wife, five years his junior, is an academic and doctor and also a major public figure in Nigeria. They are believed to have four adult children.

The Metropolitan Police has said the child, who is under the age of 18, at the centre of the alleged plot is in care.

Organ harvesting involves removing parts of the body, often for cash and against the victim's will.

Stop confusing yourself.

A uk doctor alarmed the uk government when he asked questions about his age and consent before the operation

It is obvious that the operation was suppose to be done in the uk.

Fact is that after an alarm was raised, Mr Ike wanted to escape the country via turkish transit through Turkish airline.

He would have boarded a london to lagos direct flight( bristish airways) but he opted for transit, in order to escape

Cantonese:
“ The doctor at the Royal Free in Camden became suspicious about whether the alleged victim was aware he was the donor of the kidney and whether he was 41 as his passport claimed.

The 15-year-old was given the passport of a 41-year-old in order to get into the UK, but did not know he was there to donate a kidney until he went a hospital appointment in London, a court heard yesterday”.

Very poor story.

Immigration officials both in Nigeria on exit and the UK on arrival would have stopped him, with a passport containing an age far older than his appearance. Immigration in Nigeria usually troubles first time traveling youths with fresh passports. If he went with Ekwerenmadu’s team, he would have escaped Nigeria, but stopped at the UK airport. How did he beat immigration on both sides.

The boy’s story makes it easy for us to understand. He claimed that he was offered a job. One would ask how someone he never met before offered him a job in England. Was there no offer made to him for a particular assignment? Surely that would be difficult to believe. He stayed in the man’s mansion in Abuja and enjoyed great food and drinks, according to him. What was he doing in a man’s house, who was not related to him and gave him such great life and offer.

I think the boy was offered the assignment by an Ekwerenmadu contact. He accepted it, looking at the amount of money available. If the court of Justice Ekwo allows it, then we can see the boy’s account details. Ekwerenmadu would not have been stupid enough to give him money in cash. That would be an evidence of some form.

It shows it was not a first time passport, they may have used fake passport for the guy with a view of silencing him after the procedure with no questions asked, have u asked yourself why they were having the procedure in turkey rather than in the UK were all the various tests were made, it was in a bid to make the guy untraceable after the procedure,


if they were not caught the family of the guy would have been looking for the guy after sometime and if they accuse the senator who would have believed them when there is no evidence, the truth is that the whole thing was carefully planned.

He may have travelled on official guise and the guy as his staff which means less scrutiny. Look at the place in the article were it says he met with Nigerians in London, a person whose daughter is about to die meeting with Nigerians in diaspora, what for, that was part of the coverup to provide an Allaby for him, the whole thing was carefully planned and I believe the guy as a sharp guy played along while having his own plans and at the right time he struck.

Pinklygul:
We don't know the true source of this story gan
Till they get to court and we hear from both sides.

And why should a 15 yr old boy be in possession of fake documents and be suitably confortable with it?
You aren't answering this

See this thing is clear enough to the unbiased mind. That boy can't afford passport acquisition process talkless of paying for plane ticket .

The question you should ask are
1. What was the visa interview process like?
2. Who facilitated the trip?
3. For what reason?
4. Was the passport obtained for the boy with legitimate documents and in a legitimate way?

By the time you are through with these questions, you'll understand how guilty the ekweremadus are

satandeterrible:
The second case is no case at all.
If the boy was paid in Nigeria, then the UK has no jurisdiction to prosecute Elweremmadu.
Paying for organ donation is not illegal in Nigeria.
So the whole substratum of the case has been demolished. It is therefore non sequitur to talk about financial inducement.

Wetin you dey talk? The operation was to be carried out in the UK not Nigeria. Why was he taken all the way to the UK to check if his kidney is compatible with Sonia's if the operation won't be carried out there? Abegii.

Good cover up by the Ekweremadu team but the truth always comes out.
