Recall WITHINNIGERIA reported a piece of news about a young man who was desperate to ‘belong’ and show off, thereby selling his kidney to buy an iPhone. However, his desperation landed him in what could be tagged as ‘regrettable dilemma’, the young man went paralyzed.

According to Dailymail, the 25-year-old man, known by his surname Wang, had his kidney removed in an underground clinic before selling it on the black market for 22,000 yuan (£2,528 or N1,180,985) in 2011 when he was just 17 years old.

The teenager wanted an iPhone and iPad desperately in order to prove to his classmates that he was trendy, but his cash-strapped parents could not afford them.

His story shocked the country at the time, leading iPhones to be billed as ‘kidney machines’ by web users.
