An interpreter tried to persuade doctors at a hospital to approve an illegal kidney transplant for the daughter of a wealthy Nigerian politician, who it is claimed plotted to transport a street trader to the UK to harvest the organ, EVdeN eVE NAkliYAT a court has heard.
Evelyn 'Ebere' Agbasonu allegedly asked for eVdEN eVe NaKliyAt payment of £1,500 to help secure the £80,000 private kidney transplant for the alleged recipient Sonia Ekweremadu, 25, at the Royal Free Hospital in north London in February 2022.
Jurors at the Old Bailey heard of Ms Agbasonu's role during the trial of Ike Ekweremadu, 60, who is alleged to have conspired with family members and others to exploit the 21-year-old street trader from Lagos in harvesting his kidney.
The then-deputy president of the Nigerian is on trial alongside his wife Beatrice Ekweremadu, 56, their daughter Sonia and medical 'middleman' Dr Obinna Obeta.If you have any issues regarding where and how to use EVDEN eVe nAkLiyaT, you can get hold of us at the website. They all deny conspiracy to arrange the travel of another person with a view to exploitation.
Sonia had a 'significant and deteriorating' kidney condition which could be managed through dialysis but cured with a transplant.
Ike Ekweremadu, 60, is on trial alongside his wife Beatrice Ekweremadu, 56, their daughter Sonia, 25.All three deny conspiracy to arrange the travel of another person with a view to exploitation
The prosecution claims the procedure was not legal as the potential organ donor was a street trader from Lagos who had no altruistic motive or family connection with the recipient.
The Old Bailey has been told it was a 'transactional' deal, with the man to be paid up to 3.5m Naira, the equivalent of £7,000,for the harvesting of his body part and the promise of opportunities in the UK.
He was tested in Nigeria and found to be a match for Sonia before being brought to the UK.
The jury heard that Ms Agbasonu, who worked as a medical secretary at the clinic and spoke Igbo, stepped in to interpret during an initial meeting on February 24 between Dr Peter Dupont and the donor from Nigeria.
The consultant had concluded the man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was not an appropriate candidate and appeared relived that the transplant would not take place.
However, according to messages from others, Ms Agbasonu appeared to agree to manipulate a second meeting to the advantage of the Ekweremadu family.
Mr Ekweremadu's brother Diwe, who had medical training, allegedly sent Sonia Ekweremadu advice from the interpreter to show a clear family connection with the donor.
Ike, a former barrister, is a member of the centre-right Peoples Democratic Party and was the Deputy President of the Nigerian Senate for three consecutive terms
Beatrice (pictured) said the donor had been found via a third party. She stated that she was 'devastated' when further tests after his arrival in the UK found he was not a match
He allegedly said: 'Ebere said it would be easier to establish that his mum and your mum are sisters.If we stretch it to the grandmum and grandmum the relationship will be too distant.'
Ms Ekweremadu allegedly replied with: 'Ok, that's fine.'
Diwe then allegedly laid out a financial agreement with her father, saying: 'I've met the Igbo interpreter.She agreed to work with us. She will be involved in coaching the boy, and during his consultation and interviews she will be providing the relevant interpretation.
'She insisted that I give her £1,500. I think the just position themselves to exploit people.'
It is claimed the potential donor was told to pretend to be Sonia's cousin.
Diwe is also alleged to have said: 'We had a meeting today with her so I've introduced her to Chinoso (Sonia) and (the donor).She advised that (the donor) comes to the hospital on Tuesday and Thursday while Chinoso (Sonia) is having her dialysis.
'Psychologically everyone in the team will have to accept that he's really committed to his cousin's health and it usually makes it easier to accept the person for the procedure.'
Prosecutor Hugh Davies KC suggested to the court the messages demonstrated the opposite of an altruistic organ donation.
Ike has denied all the allegations and said he had not arranged the travel of anyone to the UK
The court heard that the potential donor and interpreter attended a meeting with a surgeon at the hospital on March 11.
After the meeting, Diwe allegedly messaged Ms Ekweremadu's father, saying: 'I have spoken with (the interpreter).She said the boy did better today but he's still showing so much timidity.
'She covered up for him and added the words as much as possible. The surgeon will discuss with Dr Dupont and they will communicate us. They will continue to work on the boy's confidence.Ebere and Obinna.'
But, the surgeon agreed with the initial assessment made by Dr Dupont that the donor was unsuitable. Ms Ekweremadu was informed of the decision on March 29.
Mr Davies told the court the interpreter was also involved in Dr Obeta's own transplant.
The jury heard that Dr Obeta, also on trial with the family, had secured a kidney transplant at the Royal Free Hospital in 2021, with a donor purporting to be his cousin.
Mr Davies told jurors an affidavit was the only evidence of a relation between the two men.
'Whatever the truth of any of that, eVDen evE nAKLiyAT the basis of his transplant process provided a clear model for what Sonia needed in her moment of crisis,' he told the court.
Jurors heard that Dr Obeta had trained at medical school with Diwe, who remains in Nigeria and is not on trial.

The man who monetized community in the office space with the controversial WeWork has turned the same theory to residential properties with his newest venture Flow.
Adam Neumann, 43, evDEN eVE NakliYaT has described how the company will transform how people interact with their homes and give them with a sense of ownership even though they're renting. To illustrate the idea he said tenants would plunge their own toilets instead of calling supers.
In , made public on Monday, Neumann discussed at length for the first time the vision behind his new real estate venture which will launch this year with properties in Atlanta, Miami and Nashville.
Flow will provide an 'elevated experience' and 'find a way to share with the resident a portion of the value that they create' to give them a sense of 'equity' in their homes.
During the 50-minute talk Neumann was joined by Marc Andreessen, a co-founder of the prominent Silicon Valley venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, which .
Adam Neumann, 43 who unsuccessfully attempted to revolutionize the commercial property industry with WeWork wants to change the way home rental works by giving renters a sense of ownership
The cash injection .A website for the project just says: 'Live life in Flow. Coming 2023.' It is not clear when this year it is expected to launch.
Neumann spoke of 'pillars' to the business, which would allow his company manage and own buildings but also oversee the collection of rent.
Firstly, he said he would use 'branded technology' to 'operate a management company that runs the buildings'.Second he would manage a portfolio of property like a traditional real estate fund.
Flow would also serve as a financial services company that would handle monthly rent payments, which make up 35 percent of a renter's expenditure, he said.
A fourth and final pillar was the more abstract idea of finding a way to impart a sense of ownership in renters, but he also said that 'ownership is a very complicated word'. Here is more information in regards to EvdEN Eve NakLiyat look at our own website.
'If you're in your apartment building and you're a renter and your toilet gets clogged you call the super,' he said.'If you're in your own apartment and you bought it and you own it and your toilet gets clogged, you take the plunger
'It's the difference when feeling like you own something to just feeling like you're renting, from being transactional to actually being part of a community,' he added.
'If we are able to take this value creating mechanism and EVdEN evE NAKliYaT share with the residents a portion of the value, it's going to make them feel ownership,' he said.'If that value appreciates over time then I feel like I'm part of a community.'
Neumann said that for most Americans the majority of their equity is in their homes, but on the other hand renting is becoming more common, and people are needing to rent for decades and raise families in rented homes.
The new company will own and manage residential property in Atlanta, Miami and Nashville this year, it says
Marc Andreessen (pictured) is a co-founder of the prominent Silicon Valley venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, which invested $350 million into Flow last August
'If you're going to go into these multi-family buildings and you're going to have this disconnected experience that you just said, but you're not only going to be there for two years and then get married and move, you're going to be there for evDEN EVE nakLiyAT 20.That sounds soul-crushing,' he said.
Neumann put a lot of emphasis on the way technology would be used to enhance the renter's experience. The company has posted job listings for more than ten engineering roles on its website, several of which are in New York and Texas and are related to the development of a 'payments platform'.
In a last August announcing his firm's investment in Flow, Marc Andreessen praised Neumann who he said was a 'visionary leader'.
He added that for all the scrutiny facing Neumann after his failed IPO and questionable management style, 'it's often under appreciated that only one person has fundamentally redesigned the office experience ...Adam Neumann'.
In explaining the firm's decision to invest Andreessen hailed Neumann as the person who could fix the current issues with the housing industry.
Flow will provide an 'elevated experience' and 'find a way to share, with the resident, a portion of the value that they create' to give them a sense of equity in the business
Neumann has bought up apartment complexes, like Stacks on Main in Nashville, Tennessee
An entity tied to Neumann also owns Society Las Olas in Fort Lauderdale, Florida
'The demographic trends driving America's housing market are impossible to ignore: Our country is creating households faster than we're building houses,' he wrote.
'Structural shortages in available homes for sale push housing prices higher, while young people are staying single for longer and increasingly concentrating in highly desirable urban centers.'
And as a result of the pandemic, Andreessen wrote, 'many people will live in places far away from where they work, and many more will shift to a hybrid environment.'
'Many people are voting with their feet and moving away from traditional economic hub cities to different cities, towns or rural areas with no diminishment of economic opportunity,' he continued.
'The residential real estate world needs to address these changing dynamics.And yet, virtually no aspect of the modern housing market is ready for these changes.'
'We think it is natural that for his first venture since WeWork, Adam returns to the theme of connecting people through transforming their physical spaces and building communities where people spend the most time: their homes.'

The Vegas Golden Knights return from the All-Star break looking to halt an extended rough stretch.
Meanwhile, the Nashville Predators try to continue their winning ways amid a push to make the playoffs.
Looking to halt their season-high four-game losing streak, the visiting Golden Knights try to keep the Predators from a fourth consecutive victory on Tuesday night.
After play completed on Jan. 5, Vegas sat atop the Western Conference standings.However, the Golden Knights are 2-6-2 since and currently third in the Pacific Division. If you have any type of questions regarding where and ways to utilize EvDEn EvE naKLiyat, EVdEn evE nAkLiYaT you can contact us at our website. They totaled just five goals while going 0-2-2 in their final four games before last week's All-Star break -- all coming on the road.
That said, Vegas coach Bruce Cassidy isn't ready to panic.
"We kinda stumbled into it at the end," Cassidy told NHL.com."I think the break was perfect timing for them, allowed them to take a breather, reset.
"We're still in a good position. That's the way we look at it. There's not many teams that can cruise home the last 30 games in this league, and we're certainly not one of them."
Vegas has won two straight and six of the last eight meetings with Nashville. Chandler Stephenson had a goal with two assists and Mark Stone added three helpers while Logan Thompson made 33 saves during the Knights' 5-4 overtime home victory against the Predators on New Year's Eve.
Since that defeat, though, Nashville is 9-4-0, a winner in five of the last six (5-0-1) and currently amid a season-high five-game home winning streak -- where each of its last three overall victories have happened. Though the Predators have totaled 13 goals during their three-game winning streak, they still remain just outside of playoff position in the West.
"I think if we're going to be able to continue to play the right way, evden eve nAKLiyaT and EvdEn eVe nakLiyAT do the right things, EVdeN eVE nAkliYAT we're going to be able to put the puck in the back of the net," Nashville coach John Hynes said.
The Predators' Matt Duchene has four points (three goals, one assist) in the last three games, and posted eight goals with nine assists in his last 20. Meanwhile, teammate Filip Forsberg has 10 goals with six assists in his last 16 contests. That includes a hat trick at Vegas in December.
Nashville All-Star Juuse Saros has a 2.25 goals-against average and .938 save percentage during his four-game home winning streak. Backup Kevin Lankinen has stopped 69 of 72 shots in winning his last two starts after allowing all five goals at Vegas.
Fresh off his first All-Star appearance, Vegas' Thompson (2.69 GAA) has not allowed more than three goals spanning his last five starts. Meanwhile, backup Adin Hill (2.73 GAA) has 10 wins this season.
Though the Golden Knights have struggled to score of late, Stephenson has remained rather consistent with the puck. He has recorded four of his team-high 44 points in the last five games.
Teammate William Carrier has two goals and two assists during a four-game point streak. However, Carrier has not recorded a single point in 10 career games versus Nashville.
