NIGERIAN DOCTOR BASED IN THE UK CHARGED FOR CONNIVING WITH EKWEREMADU OVER
KIDNEY HARVESTING

Ike Ekweremadu

A Nigerian medical doctor based in London has joined Senator Ike Ekweremadu and
wife, Beatrice, in the dock in a UK court over alleged plot to harvest the
kidney of a homeless Nigerian.

The doctor, Obinna Obeta, 50, of Hillbeck Close, Southwark, southeast London,
appeared at Bexley Magistrates’ Court July 13, accused of conniving with the
Ekweremadus to arrange for the travel of Ukpo Nwamini David (21) from Nigeria to
the UK.

Obeta is also alleged to have conspired with the former Deputy Senate President
to arrange or facilitate the travel of David with a view to exploiting him via
organ harvesting.

The charges come under the Modern Slavery Act, according to The Mail of London.

Prosecutors claim the Ekweremadus planned to have David’s kidney removed so it
could be given to their daughter.

David is said to have refused to consent to the procedure after undergoing tests
at the Royal Free Hospital in Hampstead, north-west London.

The prosecutors are also accusing the Ekweremadus of treating David as a slave
before he escaped and went to Staines police station in Surrey.

The couple were arrested at Heathrow Airport on June 21 after arriving on a
flight from Turkey and appeared at the Old Bailey for a bail hearing.

The couple denied wrongdoing or that there was a criminal conspiracy, and claim
no exploitation occurred.

Prosecutor Tim Probert-Wood said previously that the case involved ‘exploitation
and the harvesting of an organ.’

David had, on 5 May, 2022, presented himself at Staines Police Station alleging
he was transported to the UK for the purpose of his kidney being removed.

He arrived in London on 20th February 2022 and was taken to Royal Free Hospital
where tests were conducted.

“For the purpose he was there he did not consent to the taking of his kidney,
the prosecutor said.

He returned to the house he was staying and his treatment changed dramatically.
He described being treated effectively as a slave.”

Ike and Beatrice were arrested in the UK on 21 June after flying in to Heathrow
from Turkey.

Martin Hicks, QC, defending Ike, has said: ‘We deny that there was any
exploitation or any intent to do so.

‘The argument will be factual denial.’All three defendants, who are in custody,
are due to appear at the Old Bailey on August 4.
