Former Nigeria’s Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu and his wife Beatrice have been sentenced by a United Kingdom Court on Friday.
While Ekweremadu was sentenced to 10years jailterm, Beatrice was sent to six years in prison for a plot to harvest human organ.
It would be recalled that the House of Representatives has earlier appealed to the Central Criminal Court, United Kingdom, to temper justice with mercy.
This followed the adoption of a motion of urgent public importance raised by the deputy minority leader of the House, Hon. Toby Okechukwu during the plenary session of the House on Tuesday.
The lawmakers also asked the United Kingdom government to interfere in the sentencing of Ike Ekweremadu, and his wife, Beatrice.
