The
sale of kidneys by desperate Nigerians is becoming another national
export and a brand that threatens to further entrench the country’s
image as full of money-seeking citizens with no scruples.
Now,
mostly in Malaysia and India, Nigerians in droves, line up to be tested
in the hope that their kidneys would be deemed good enough to be
donated to a sick person. The two Asian countries that have become
favoured destinations of Nigerians have also become favoured places of
treatments for Europeans and Americans for diseases related to kidney.
Investigations revealed that there were a lot of people in the queue in Malaysia, most of them Nigerians, who have gone to sell their kidneys.

Those
who took the risk of selling their kidneys needed money desperately to
start something that will turn their lives around back home. This trend
seems to be the latest threat facing Nigeria’s image as the country that
battles Youth unemployment and deep rooted poverty which is the cause
of this trans-national deadly trade.
Investigations
also show that unrepentant Yahoo Boys who have been unlucky in the scam
business of late have now turned to selling their kidneys for survival.
They are the ones who readily advertise themselves as willing sellers
on the internet. The desperate guys give out various information
including their age, marital status and a kidney test detailing the
condition of their kidney.
Perhaps,
the biggest threat is the danger these young Nigerians subject
themselves. Most of the people involved, we gathered die even before
they start enjoying the money from the deadly trade. Although a normal
human being has 2 kidneys, it is common knowledge that a man can survive
on only a kidney and still lead a normal life.
However, all these depends on the specific mediation and mother luck being on the side of the person.

However
typical of many young Nigerian men, the moment they get into the
country, they go on crazy spending spree and unnecessary binges and
living reckless lives which in turn takes the toll on the only kidney
left. The stress has been attributed to the cause of death of many of
these young men.
