The international passport of the boy identified as David Ukpo Nwamini who was allegedly flown to the UK to donate one of his kidneys to Ike Ekweremadu‘s daughter has revealed his age to be 21 years old.

This is according to the information provided on the data page of the international passport bearing David Ukpo Nwamini, the same name embattled former deputy senate president, Ekweremadu disclosed in the letter in the medical visa application submitted to the British High Commission in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

In the passport seen by this publication, David’s date of birth is October 12, 2000, contrary to the viral reports of the donor being 15-year- old homeless minor.

This puts the age of the passport holder in question at 21.

Recall, Ike Ekweremadu and his wife were arrested in the United Kingdom by the police and detained on allegations of child trafficking and organ harvesting after Ekweremadu had flown David to UK for the kidney transplant.

Ekweremadu and his wife were subsequently denied bail in court, and the case adjourned to July 7.
