The police in Lagos are investigating how two teenagers sold their organs to a medical doctor in Abeokuta, Ogun state for N200,000 without the consent of their parents.
Vanguard News reports that the girls connived with a church member, Mrs Adeleke and went to a medical doctor at Redwood Specialist Hospital, Abeokuta where their organs were sold for N100,000 each.
The incident came to light in September 12, 2022 when one of them started vomiting and she was taken to hospital by her father who thought it was typhoid or malaria and the doctor requested for medical test which later revealed that her anus and private part were damaged.
It is reported that the sick girl who became unconscious after her health condition was blown open regained consciousness and disclosed to her father that a female member of his church trafficked them to Ogun state where their organs were sold to a medical doctor. The teenagers further alleged that the trafficker convinced them to carry out the illegal act because the one whose father is a Bishop, is not paying them enough money and that she will take them to where they will be handsomely paid N100,000.
They also alleged that the trafficker warned them not to inform their parents, that if they do, she will kill them. The girls narrated that without the consent of their parents, the trafficker took them to the hospital in Ogun state and conspired with the doctor identified as Dr. Durodola and injected them some drugs.
They alleged that they were further taken to a hospital in Surulere, Lagos where they were also coerced and their ovaries/eggs/organs were harvested illegally by the medical Doctor without their consent resulting in severe pains and bleeding. 📷: Vanguard News
