Senator Ekweremadu and his wife were both arrested in the United Kingdom for alleged organ harvesting.
The couple were arrested at Heathrow Airport on June 21 after arriving on a flight from Turkey.
Ike Ekweremadu and Obinna Obeta, from Southwark, south London, are charged with conspiring to arrange or facilitate the travel of a man with a view to him being exploited.
Mrs. Ekweremadu and Obeta are charged with arranging the travel of the man with a view to his being exploited.
Prosecutor Tim Probert-Wood said previously that the case involved "exploitation and the harvesting of an organ."
He said: "The case began on May 5, 2022, when the complainant presented himself at Staines Police Station and claimed he had been transported to this country for the purpose of having his kidney removed."
He arrived on February 20th, 2022, and was taken to the Royal Free Hospital where tests were conducted.
For the purpose that he was there, he did not consent to the taking of his kidney.
"He returned to the house he was staying at, and his treatment changed dramatically."
"He described being treated effectively as a slave."
Martin Hicks, QC, defending Ike, has said: "We deny that there was any exploitation or any intent to do so."
"The argument will be factual denial."
