The senate president declined to answer questions from newsmen stating that ”he was only in the state for a private visit and not a political visit.”

 

The embattled Yobe North senator, Lawan,  visited the two ex-military generals along with Senator Sani Musa.

 

Lawan said, ”as an elder statesman, it is necessary that the visit is made especially with the contributions Abdulsalami has made to the country.

 

“As our leader and elder statesman, we felt that it’s necessary that we make this visit today to come and sympathize with him and his family.

 

”We are grateful to God for the lives of our fathers and we pray that they recover completely.

 

”This is to enable them to continue with their good work of ensuring that Nigeria remains united and Nigerians live peacefully amongst themselves.”

 

Recall that reports had claimed that former president Olusegun Obasanjo had met with the two former heads of state for Pete Obi presidential ambition.
