“He said he will give me $20 million and buy a house for me in America if I donate my kidney”- “Nigerian Man Claims Boss Tricked Him into Kidney Donation Without Compensation (Video)”
A Nigerian driver, Eric Chimobi Nwoko, has accused his boss simply identified as Akazue of deceiving him into donating one of his kidneys to his younger brother, Osinachi, and thereafter failing to fulfill all the promises made to him if he donated the kidney.
In a chat with TVC, Nwoko said his boss had approached him about his ailing brother and his dire need for a kidney transplant. He said his boss, who asked him not to discuss the matter with any family member, promised to give him $20m, a house, and a driving job in the US if he donated his kidney. He said that since undergoing the kidney transplant at a popular hospital in Lagos State on December 22, 2018, Akazue has failed to honor his promises. He said after undergoing the transplant and being discharged from the hospital, his boss moved him into a one-room apartment in Mowe, adding that one week after the surgery, Akazue ordered him to return to work despite still recuperating.
“I was employed as a driver for Mr Akazue in November 2018. His brother, Osinachi, had a kidney issue, so when my boss travelled, I was driving his brother to the hospital for dialysis every three days. When my boss returned, he called me into his office and told me that his brother’s kidney had failed and that in the next one or two weeks, his brother may die. He asked if I would like to donate one of my kidneys for his brother and said if I donated the kidney, he would give me $20m, a house in America, and will also get me a driving job in America.
I said I would do it and the next day, we went to the hospital where they ran tests and told me my kidney would match his. The next day, Akazue’s brothers, another of his in-laws, one Mr Joe, and I went back to the hospital, we stayed three days after which the surgery was done.”
Nwoko said one week after he was discharged, he exhausted his drugs, adding that since 2018 to date, he had not received any treatment as Akazue abandoned him.
“All the promises my boss made me, he didn’t fulfil them. Whenever I asked my boss about it, he’d tell me not to worry, that I was still in his mind. On October 13, 2023, I realised what had happened and told my parents about what I was going through,” Nwoko said
He added that his salary was increased to N70,000 after the transplant, but he never received the full salary because N30,000 was always deducted if he missed any day at work.
He explained that his family lodged a complaint at the Zone 2 Command, where the Assistant-Inspector General, Muhammed Ali, detailed his men, and Akazue was arrested on Sunday, October 22.
The Zone 2 Command is yet to comment on this case.
