Ekweremadu's wife found guilty of organ trafficking

Former Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, his wife, Beatrice, has been found guilty of organ trafficking in the United Kingdom.

The couple alongside their daughter, Sonia, and a medical doctor, Dr. Obinna Obeta, were found guilty of facilitating the travel of a young man to Britain with a view to his exploitation after a six-week trial at the Old Bailey.

They criminally conspired to bring the 21-year-old Lagos street trader to London to exploit him for his kidney, the jury found on Thursday.

Justice Jeremy Johnson, the judge, will pass a sentence at a later date.
