One kidney costs over N94M – Nigerians warned of fake travel agencies


One kidney costs over N94M - Nigerians warned of fake travel agencies lailasnewsThe International Organisation for Migration, IOM has warned Nigerians to be wary of fake travel agencies who have affiliations with organ harvesters in parts of the Middle East.

According to press statement signed by the National Protocol Officer, IOM-Nigeria, Mr. Ikechukwu Attah, victims are promised travel documents and work abroad by these fake agencies, only to put them in harm’s way.“Beware of fake foreign agencies that promise work abroad. They process your papers, pay for your tickets and then take you abroad in pretense that they want to get you a job there.

“Instead, they end up killing their victims and harvesting all the valuable body parts. “A lot of people were offered jobs in the Middle East but up to now, their family members cannot trace their whereabouts,” Attah said.

He said that the body parts’ black market was now booming in parts of the Middle East, and advised prospective migrants to always go through proper channels to avoid falling victim, NAN reports.



“The body parts’ black market business is booming in Middle East.“One kidney now costs $262,000 (over N94 million), heart costs $119,000 (nearly N43 million) and liver costs $157,000 (over N56 million).

“Let our children and grandchildren be aware of these evil devices,” he said.
