Reacting, Sonia Ekweremadu said she feels guilty about the conviction of her parents on conspiracy to harvest a human organ.
In an interview with BBC on Friday, she however, disagreed with the conviction of her parents.
She said: “I understand the conviction, however, I personally disagree with it. That is from a very biased perspective as their daughter, I will obviously always back my parents.
“However, the law has taken its course, we just need to move on as one family,” she said.
The 25-year-old daughter of the embattled Senator, said she is undergoing dialysis.
