A lack of education is killing our people. They fail to understand that one must go through certain medical tests and investigations before "donating" a kidney or any other body part. It is not simply a - "cut me open come take!" One must also have been on certain medication BEFORE and AFTER a transplant. This is silly, silly, silly.
The person receiving the kidney had no close association with the donor. The only thing they have is the money. They do not care about the plight of the donor.
Even after "donating" a kidney you need specialised AFTER CARE. Did he think he would have this care FREE in Nigeria. The 6 million naira (£5000) would have got him nowhere. This is sad and silly at the same time.
This is not poverty. This is GREED!
This is the most educated, intelligent, realistic comment I have ever read on this site. I agree with you 100%.
