Former Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, Beatrice, his wife, Sonia, their daughter and Dr Obinna Obeta, will have to endure at least another day of tense waiting till today to know the outcome of their ongoing conspiracy to facilitate and arrange travel with the aim of exploitation trial.

Former Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, Beatrice, his wife, Sonia, their daughter and Dr Obinna Obeta, will have to endure at least another day of tense waiting till today to know the outcome of their ongoing conspiracy to facilitate and arrange travel with the aim of exploitation trial.

Before sending the seven women and five men jurors home for the second day, they were asked back into the courtroom from the jury room. The judge then said to them, “no more deliberations for today. Stop deliberating for today. No more thinking about it,” and “do not discuss it with anyone.” He urged them to “enjoy your afternoon and come back tomorrow ” morning to continue.

He went further and explained the two elements of the charge to them, emphasising that the conspiracy doesn’t have to involve all the four defendants, “if they’ve agreed with at least one other person” for the same purpose of offering compensation to Nwamini for donating their kidney.
