Ike Ekweremadu, 60, a People’s Democratic Party politician in Nigeria and his wife Nwanneka Ekweremadu, 55, have been held on suspicion of plotting to harvest the organs of a child in the UK

The investigation, according to Dailymail was launched after detectives were alerted to potential offences under modern slavery legislation in May 2022, the force said.

Recall that In 2017, former minister of aviation, claimed that migrants from Nigeria were having their organs harvested after being sold into slavery.

Femi Fani-Kayode, alleged that 75 per cent of slaves who have their organs harvested in North Africa are from his Nigeria.

The Cambridge University-educated lawyer added that the victims have their ‘bodies mutilated’ and are ‘roasted like suya [shish kebabs]’. He went on: ‘Roasted alive! This is what Libyans do to sub-Saharan Africans who are looking for a transit point to Europe.

‘They sell them into slavery and either murder, mutilate, torture or work them to death.’

    This is a critical issue that needs to be addressed.

    I believe that the trafficking of children for organs is a heinous crime, and those responsible should be brought to justice.

    I like that the UK authorities are taking this seriously and are working to investigate and prosecute those involved.

    I believe this will help to send a strong message that this type of crime will not be tolerated.

    I appreciate that the victims, in this case, are being protected, and I hope that they will be able to get the help and support they need.
