Kidney Trafficker Ekweremadu to Serve Full Sentence in British Prison

 

 

 

The United Kingdom has declined a request from the Nigerian government to allow former Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu to complete his prison sentence in Nigeria.

 

Ekweremadu is serving time in a UK facility after he was found guilty in 2023 of plotting to harvest the kidney of a young man.

 

 

The former lawmaker received a jail term of nine years and eight months following the conviction, which stemmed from a high-profile organ-trafficking case that drew international attention.

 

 

With the latest decision, Ekweremadu will remain in the UK to serve out the remainder of his sentence.
