A young man identified as Vincent Jeremiah has debunked claims of being the 15-year-old boy who was flown abroad by former Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu for an alleged organ harvesting.
Ekweremadu’s scandal sent the internet into a frenzy since it hit the airwaves on Wednesday night.
He is reported to have exported a homeless 15-year-old boy to the UK with promises of a better life after he donated one of his kidneys to save the lawmaker’s daughter who has been on dialysis.
While the sex and identity of the real victim David Ukpo Nwamini remained a mystery till Thursday night, another young man, Vincent Jeremiah started trending as the homeless victim.
Reacting, the young man took to his Facebook page to state another viral video that he is presently in Nigeria and he is not linked to the incident.
“Please kindly disregard the post flying around which suggests that I am the young man whom Ike Ekwerenmadu allegedly paid for a kidney transplant.
“My name is VINCENT JEREMIAH and I have nothing to do with the said incident! Thank you.”
