Reacting, Aisha Yesufu via her official Twitter handle said, “There are people who have spent 6-10 years on dialysis. You keep your child on one until you get a donor. Why use another person’s child?”

Aisha further said, “How many missing people are related to organ harvesting? How many such cases have been happening in countries where they do not care and corruption is rife? How many are even happening here!
This is scary.”
