A court in the UK has decreed that David Ukpo, a purported kidney donor for the daughter of Ike and Beatrice Ekweremadu, is not a minor.???

Ekweremadu, the former deputy president of the senate, and Beatrice, his wife, appeared for trial at the Westminster magistrate court on Thursday.???
???
The court ruled that Ukpo is a 21-year-old and not 15 years old as claimed earlier.???

UK police in late June apprehended Ekweremadu and his wife Beatrice over an alleged conspiracy to traffic a child for organ harvesting. ???

Metropolitan police in a declaration said that Beatrice Nwanneka Ekweremadu and Ike Ekweremadu, who are 55 and 60 years old respectively were remanded in detention to appear at Uxbridge Magistrates Court. ???
During the proceeding, the court held that Ukpo is not a minor after the counsel to the Ekweremadus made an argument on the issue.
