Some teenagers are currently battling with their lives after they sold some of their internal organs. The two teenagers have been identified as 17-year-old Precious Ikechukwu and 19-year-old Theresa Obam. According to them, one Adeleke Blessing, also known as Mummy K, without the consent of their parents trafficked them to Redwood hospital in Abeokuta Ogun state.
The police in Lagos have commenced an investigation into how two teenagers, residing at Iyana-Ipaja area of Lagos State, sold their organs to a medical doctor in Abeokuta, Ogun State, last two months for N200,000 without the consent of their parents. The teenagers, 17-year-old Precious Ikechukwu, daughter of a Pentecostal Bishop in Lagos, and her father’s secretary, 19-year-old Theresa Obam, allegedly conspired with an adult member of the church, Mrs Adeleke Blessing, and went to a medical doctor at Redwood Specialist Hospital, Abeokuta, where their organs were sold for N100,000 each.
The bubble reportedly burst on September 12, 2022, when Precious, the daughter of the bishop and Founder of Living Word Anointed Gospel Mission, located at Iyana-Ipaja, Lagos, started vomiting. She was taken to the hospital by her father, Ikechukwu Umeayo, who thought it was typhoid or malaria. The doctor requested for a medical test, which later revealed that her anus and private part were damaged.
It was gathered 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, Mrs Adeleke Blessing, trafficked them to Ogun State, where their organs were sold to a medical doctor. The teenagers further alleged that Mrs Adeleke convinced them to carry out the illegal act because the bishop, her father, 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 Mrs Adeleke warned them not to tell their father/parents, that if they did, she would kill them.
