Nigerian law currently legalizes organ harvesting without owner’s consent – Medical expert petitions NASS
Prof (Dr.) Philip Njemanze, Chairman of the Global Prolife Alliance, has revealed that Nigeria’s National Health Act 2014 permits the harv#sting of an individual’s organs without their consent.
Njemanze, an International Academician of Science, voiced concern that, if urgent action is not taken to modify the Act, millions of Nigerians may soon p#rish from legalized organ poaching.
He listed several disputed provisions of the NHAct 2014 that need to be changed for the protection of Nigerians, including sections 13, 20, 43, 45, 48, 51, 53, and 58.
Njemanze, in a lengthy submission to the National Assembly, revealed the urgent need to amend the National Health Act inorder to avoid implications for national security.
He stated, “National security demands Federal Government Amendment of the National Health Act 2014 to prevent mass harv#sting of human organs and poaching of ovarian eggs.
