UK Court Rules Senator Ekweremadu Kidney Donor 21 Not 15


The kidney donor David Ukpo for the Ekweremadu family has been ruled by the UK court to be 21 and not 15 years old.

This was disclosed today 7th of July at the court hearing in the United Kingdom. According to the Westminster Magistrates Court, the alleged donor for Senator Ekweremadu’s daughter was not underage as previously claimed.

Recall that Ekweremadu and his wife were arrested and brought before the Uxbridge Magistrates Court on the 23rd of June over the alleged exploitation of a minor in the UK. According to the reports, the Ekweremadus had brought a Nigerian minor into the UK for the sole purpose of harvesting his organs.

The victim identified as David Ukpo had claimed he was 15 years old while the defendants had insisted he was 21. The case was adjourned to the 7th of July and the Ekweremadus had written to the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) to provide David’s information.
