There is NO memory card in the iPhone to remove. It is sealed. Go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings. Make sure you have it connected to power as this can take a very long time depending on memory capacity. This will put it back to the way it was when it came out of the box. Then your friend can put their SIM card in and set it up with iTunes.
