Somethings are not just about the individual involved but are about the honour and dignity of the country as a whole

Ekweremadu is not just a serving Senator but a three time Deputy Senate President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the Failure of the Buhari led FG to lift a finger to try to diplomatically resolve the Ekweremadu case is condemnable, in bad faith, and bad for the image and dignity of the country Nigeria.

And it is not like Ekweremadu committed any offence that is out of this world. He wrote to the the British High Commission and clearly communicated the purpose of his visit to the UK. This is just a loving parent trying to work out a solution to his daughter's illness.

It is obvious that the supposed victim had lied about many things including claiming that he was minor. And whatever be the case, the supposed victim is still hale and hearty!

Detention of Ekweremadu for months, even when he has not been found guilty of any offence is completely unacceptable!!

Rubbish.

The implications of this is that any other Nigerian Senator or Governor can as well be unjustly detained overseas and then nothing happens

Can a serving US Senator be treated so badly in the UK, I don't think so

useless write up. They weren't informed.if they were, they would have all jointly signed document with witnesses from all parties involved and their guarantor b4 being granted by embassy to travel. Some peeps down there say investigation proved him innocent. Where did they hear that. Ekeremadu has been a senator for 19 yrs, he couldn't use his allocation to establish one hospital in his district, or equip existing one.,say something else pls.

Ekweremadu should be ashamed of himself. Deputy senate president for three consecutive times and his constituency can't even boast of any hospital that can handle kidney related illness.

Let him enjoy his trust in oversea medical treatment as one of the privileged Nigerians

We don't care since they don't care about the ordinary citizens too

Even here in our country we are been treated badly by our politicians and security team so what do you expect from the outside.

A lot is already happening to ordinary citizens. Many are dying of malnutrition right here in Nigeria.

Leave Ekweremadu alone to handle his issues. Nigerians are busy trying to save flood victims.

Which implication?

The same Nigerian Governors and Senators who are misappropriating public funds, some even stashing it overseas?

Bunkum,

Ekweremadu is in is in... It should serve deterrent to other bad leaders, always thinking they are above the lawa

He doesn't deserve my pity.

His detention is unacceptable by you because you wrote the UK law.
I usually Watch border security and real responder on YouTube, this shows how UK and Australia handle immigration things according to law, they genuinely attends to individuals according to their law. If you are found guilty, they will make several consultation with every law enforcement agencies before they will deliver judgement. Be rest assured that he will be released if he's innocent or he will be jailed if he's guilty.
If he had used his position to push for a standard world class hospital in the east, he would not have been in this situation today because over 100 donor will be willing to donate.
I wish his daughter quick recovery.

Useless and empty write up......... you are probably part of the problems ravaging this country.........

It is in itself a problem that you see nothing wrong in a serving Nigerian Senator who hasn't even been convicted being detained in a foreign land for months

This is not just about the individual, it's about your country

Ekweremadu is just one out of 109 members of the Senate, cannot pass any law all by him, and has no executive powers to build world class hospitals

Yes sir, I didn't say he has the power to build, I used the word "push". He can lobby others to push for it. They can make law to establish for the to world class hospital in each state. They know how to get things done when it will put more money in their pockets, but they will become handicap and blame the executives when it involves Nigerians. Do you think it's only the children of the privileged that normally have kidney problems ?

Mumu comment. So it is now Nigeria problem when baby factory attitudes affected him negatively abroad? Who send him ?who is that senator by name ? What had he offered his poeple and Nigeria at larg for his lengthy time of been senator ?? Oga you poeple are among who made Nigeria a lawless as it is today. So A Senator should not under go punishment of his guilty any more .Do you think those developed countries are lawless like Nigeria where law only catch up with Poor's?

Ekweremadu is a typical naija polithiefcian who unfortunately dug the pit for his enemy too deep but ended up falling inside. However, if it was an Abokey senator, I believe bubu and his cabals would have found a way around it. They only use government machineries in favor of their kinsmen

It’s actually unfair to just call someone a thief without evidence. Ekweremmadu has been in the senate for 20 years. He came to the Senate because he won his elections and he never stopped other people from running. There are over 100 Senators and no single Senator can determine how monies belonging to the Senate is shared. Nothing shows he has stollen money belonging to the Senate or to the Federal Government

Will you keep quiet... Unlike Nigeria the British judicial system is not biased or for sale to the highest bidder.

-You seem to know a lot about this Ike Ekweremadu. Please can you confirm whether Ike, his wife or any member of his family paid that young man for his organ? Thank you in advance.

It is a fact that Ekweremadu has been on detention for months.

It is also a fact that Ekweremadu has not been convicted of any offence and is indeed not guilty of any offence.

His offence is that he sought solution to his daughter's ailment and then met an evil donor, a liar who even claimed to be a minor until his account opening documents, NIN, and BVN showed otherwise

Wonder shall never end.

This atiku is getting old oh. Nigeria need young candidates from the south and you all know who that person is.

Clap for yourself for your warped sense of reasoning

Based on mere allegation, a serving Senator of another sovereign country is detained for months without conviction and then the government of his own country fold their arms and do nothing

Kudos bro...I like your write up and I support you.


Many people will say things about this case without critical analysis, a lot are already talking thrash without stopping to think.
Most Nigerians that conderm the Ekwerenmadus & wants him destroyed are simply based on tribal, party or religious reasons and not genuine principles which only few have.

Part of the problems of Nigeria is the people and how they reason or approach matters that is why they often chase shadows and powerful people decieve the citizens' with ease.

This "pull him down at any means syndrome" or "herd mentality" mindset is bad. That a person is a Nigerian politician or public office holder/ figure doesn't automatically make the person a criminal or quilty of accused crimes instantly, instead channel your frustrations into something good& productive......but you guess what..?

It is Nigeria as a nation and her people that this insult is targeted at not really Mr. Ekwerenmadu.
It simply means any nation can do as they wish to any Nigerian official or citizens as they please because they know nothing will happen.
Even if the accusations are right, there are better ways to handle the matter a more respectful way that Nigeria/Nigerians won't be rubbished in the process.

A diligent, right thinking government&people will demand for his repatriation to Nigeria to face his trials here just like other nations do.

No serious country or government in the world will allow any of their officials,talk more of top one be subjected to this ridicule no matter what.
This explains why Nigeria has lost huge respect world over....everyone now wants to rubbish her at any opportunity...eg Dubai(UAE) recently.

All those people condemning the man would easily have done same mistake if they were the ones involved....and it's not as if the court has pronounced him guilty yet.

The British government's action is disrespectful to our nation and is in bad faith and I disagree with this their method towards this case.

The man can still be kept under house arrest pending the conclusion of the case instead of sensationalizing things by putting him in prison.....would he have ran away and left his family or sick child..?

The so called "underaged" Boy is busy enjoying his mischief while his backers cheer on but only God will judge this matter and time will tell.

His crime was simply trying to be a good father&protector to his child&family.

This case makes me believe that there is more to it than we are told...someone/people powerful somewhere is probably pulling the strings behind.

I am no way defending him if guilty...am only stating that things should be done in a more proper& respectful manner to Nigeria according to obtainable international/diplomatic best practices.

That it is Mr. Ekwerenmadu & family today doesn't mean that it can not be you celebrating his ordeals tomorrow...so think independently.

Nigeria think deep&restore your nation's respect because what affects one will definitely affect others.

It's unfortunate that a lot of people don't look at matters critically. That's why they can confidently and happily vote in misfits in all elections. Nigerians needs serious reorientation.

You know more that UK police, lawyers and judges. I learnt that you delivered Ike letter to UK high commision and received acknowledged copy.

My stand on this issue is same as yours, Nigeria ought to have insisted on the u.k to release the senator after investigation have revealed that the senator is actually innocent of the crime being leveled against him,this are some of the ways this so-called developed nations undermine us,a very strong message from the Nigerian government ought to have been released publicly condemning the continued unwarranted detention of the serving senator by the British government considering the fact that all investigations have revealed that the boy lied about being an underaged individual in his press release and that the senator followed due process in his travel application for the operation.
