The Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) has said that Noah Kekere, who was arrested for allegedly removing a woman’s kidney in Jos, Plateau State, is not a medical doctor.
Recall that Kekere was arrested after a Jos-based businessman, Kamal Busari, accused him of removing his wife’s kidney without his knowledge. Mrs Kehinde Kamal said her kidney was discovered missing at Jos University Teaching Hospital following a complaint of abdominal pain.
Chairman of the Plateau State chapter of NMA, Dr Bapigaan William Audu, said records at their secretariat showed that the suspect is neither a medical doctor nor a member of NMA.
He told Daily Trust;
“What we have at our secretariat and the investigation we have carried out showed that he (Dr Kekere) is not a doctor and not our member.
“We are going to come out with an informed decision on the matter. We are looking at different aspects of the matter as well as different facts available at the moment. So, I think things will be clearer by Monday or Tuesday.”
