He promises to pay good money for body parts, but he doesn’t reveal what he will do with them once he’s got them.
The pamphlets seen on street poles and in malls offer a list of body parts the doctor will take out of your body and how much he is prepared to pay.He even applies emotional blackmail: “If not for you, do it for your loved ones.” The top line of the pamphlet reads: “Dr Uba pays the best prices for all your body parts and organs.”
Human eyes are worth up to R5 000, breasts go for R1 800 and a tongue is R2 500. Testicles are priced at R1 600 each, hands and kidneys at R3 800. The pamphlet says rhino parts are also available.

The “healer” who calls himself Dr Uba claims his methods are safe. “Hurry and wash in holy spiritual water to make a full recovery,” promises the yellow pamphlet.
People have been disgusted by the pamphlets. Noma Ntshali (52) from Alexandra, Joburg said: “I can’t believe someone can advertise such things to the public. What does it say about our law enforcement?
Marks Thela from Johannesburg CBD said: “This advertisement is a fake. People must be careful of this.” Gauteng police spokesman Captain Kay Makhubele said the pamphlet was playing with people’s minds.
“We are warning people not to fall for such things,” he said. Makhubele said police would launch an investigation.
For two days, Daily Sun tried to call “Dr Uba” on the cellphone number provided, but the man who promises he will never change his name or hide his face from the public never answered his phone. - Daily Sun
