Ike Ekweremadu’s disgraced former deputy senate president’s daughter Sonia said she feels bad that her parents were convicted for organ trafficking since they were trying to find a cure for her medical condition.
This was said by Ekweremadu’s daughter in a Friday interview with the BBC.
Remember how a UK jury determined in March 2023 that Ekweremadu, his wife Beatrice, and a doctor named Obinna Obeta had engaged in a criminal conspiracy to bring a 21-year-old Lagos street trader to London in order to take advantage of him for his kidney.
The young man allegedly pretended to be Sonia’s cousin in an unsuccessful attempt to convince medical staff to perform a $80,000 private surgery at London’s Royal Free Hospital.
