Younger brother of David Ukpo Nwanmini, the alleged victim of organ traffick!ng involving Senator Ike Ekweremadu and his wife in the United Kingdom, Jonathan Ukpo Nwanmini, has reacted to the controversy surrounding his brother’s age.
Recall that on Thursday June 23, the Metropolitan Police announced that Ekweremadu and his wife were charged to court over the allegation of bringing a child with the name David to the UK for organ harvest!ng.
Since then, the quest to ascertain the true age of David began. While David’s passport shared online revealed he is 22-years-old which is in contrast to what he allegedly told the Metropolitan police detectives that he is 15-years-old.
However, his brother, Jonathan told Sunday Vanguard that he is 25-years-old. He also disclosed that David told him he’s traveling abroad to school.
Jonathan said; ”David is my elder brother because we are both of the same father with different mothers and we hail from Ebonyi State. I will be 22 years old by next month and David is 25 years old. I am aware that he travelled because he told me. He did not disclose the country he was travelling to. He simply told me he was going to school abroad.
“After some months of not hearing from him, I got his number from his girlfriend and called him. I asked about his studies and work. “He said it was fine but that he was not working yet as he needed to go to school first before he could be given a working paper. I told him about our dad who was not feeling fine.
“This was the conversation we had this month since January when he travelled. He was staying with us here in Ikotun before he left. We both sell phone accessories. We spoke last week. We even spoke again this week.
”Another businessman in Ikotun who pleaded anonymity also told Sunday Vanguard that; “David left Nigeria in January. He told us that someone promised to sponsor his education in the UK. He never mentioned the name of the person, but from what I have read online, it might be that the person was an intermediary between David and the former Deputy Speaker.
