Some senators on Tuesday paid a
solidarity visit to three former ministers, Femi Fani-Kayode, Musiliu
Obanikoro and Bala Muhammed, and former presidential spokesperson,
Reuben Abati, who are in the custody of the Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission in Abuja.
Our correspondent learnt that among the
visiting senators are four serving ones identified as Isah Hamma from
Bauchi Central, Ali Wakili from Bauchi South, Ali Ndume from Borno
South, and Philips Aduda from the Federal Capital Territory.
A former Oyo State senator, Teslim Folarin, was also among the visitors.
Our correspondent gathered that the senators got to the EFCC office around 8pm on Tuesday.
A source said the senators gave the former ministers and former presidential spokesperson the assurances of their support.
He said, “The senators were more than
five, but those are the names I can confirm. They got to the EFCC office
around 8pm. They gave Obanikoro, Abati, Fani-Kayode and Muhammed the
assurances of their support. The senators said they were happy to find
the four men in high spirits. It was more of a solidarity visit.”
