Senate will send a delegation to the UK to visit the embattled Ekweremadu who, alongside his wife, has been remanded in custody by the UK Government on allegations of organ harvesting.

Senate President Ahmed Lawan disclosed this after a closed-door session of the chamber on Wednesday.

According to him, members of the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs will be traveling to the UK in the next two days to meet with Senator Ekweremadu.

“There will be a delegation to London to see Senator Ike Ekweremadu and his wife. A delegation from the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs of the Senate will leave in the next two days for London for that purpose,” the statement added.

“I want to urge all federal government institutions that can do anything to ensure that justice prevails in this case, that they do so.”
