Notable Nollywood actress, Georgina Onuoha expresses satisfaction at the sentencing of the former member of Nigeria’s Senate, Ike Ekweremadu and his wife. Ike Ekweremadu and his wife, Beatrice were sentenced to 9 years and 4 years in prison respectively by a UK court after being found guilty of human trafficking and organ trafficking. Reacting to the reports of their sentencing, Georgina Onuoha emphasized how ‘it serves them right’ for abusing power.
Georgina Onuoha on the sentencing of Ekweremadu, wife “And let the choir say Amen. Serves them right. Do not take advantage of anyone because you are in a place of power. Dear Nigerian doctors, nurses and caregivers, do not sacrifice your licenses for anyone let alone Nigerian politicians who deliberately neglect our health care system back home but can rush overseas to be treated by the same Nigerians clinicians they treat poorly back home. As for the ex senator I hope they can extend his imprisonment. This same man was given millions if not billions to build hospitals back home in his state, he embezzled it. As for their daughter, I wish her well and good health. If she was better advised I’m sure she would have made a different choice. If you speak up and ask for help, I’m sure someone somewhere would have helped her out. Best of luck young woman and I pray God send you help and healing.”
