UK Government Charges Ekweremadu’s Daughter, Sonia too for Organ Trafficking
Ekweremadu’s daughter, Sonia has today in the United Kingdom been charged alongside parents for human organ trafficking of a 21 year old man.
The UK police accuse Sonia of bringing a homeless man into the UK so she could take his organs for herself, Ekweremadu’s wife and daughter are present in court too.
Ike Ekweremadu’s daughter appeared in a UK court today, November 7, to respond to allegations that she brought a homeless man into the nation illegally so she could take his organs.
In addition to their doctor, Obinna Obeta, Ekweremadu and his wife Beatrice are currently on trial for conspiring to arrange the travel of a third party in order to take advantage of him and harvest his organs. They were both detained in June of this year.
As it stands presently, Ekweremadu, wife and daughter all have a case to answer before the UK court, either as initiator of the alleged crime or an accomplice.
They are accused of working together, along with unidentified third parties and another family member Isaac Ekweremadu, to plan the travel of David Ukpo Nwamini, 21, in order to take advantage of him between August 1, 2021, and May 5, 2018. They have been charged with helping him fly from Lagos to London in order to have one of his kidneys removed and used for their daughter Sonia, who has a kidney-related condition and has been receiving dialysis for some time.

In court today, the prosecutors assert that Nwamini’s organ was to be harvested for Sonia. The young man, who had previously resided on the streets of Lagos, showed up at the Staines police station and claimed to be a victim of trafficking, the prosecutors informed the court. The Ekweremadus and their doctor were then detained.
Nwamini allegedly admitted to police officers that he had arrived in the UK on February 20 and had been transported to the Royal Free Hospital for tests—none of which he had given his approval for. Nwamini claimed that following these examinations, he went back to the residence where he had been staying and was “treated practically as a slave.” He allegedly ran away from the address and lived on the streets for three days before calling the police.
Both Mr. Ekweremadu and his physician are being detained in HMP Belmarsh and HMP Wandsworth, respectively. They did not show up today in court. At a hearing in July, Mrs. Ekweremadu was given bail; today, she appeared in court with Sonia.
