Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, on Thursday, led other senators to the residence of the Chief Whip of the upper legislative chamber, Orji Uzor Kalu, after the Abia lawmaker was released from prison during the week.
The former governor of Abia State regained freedom on Wednesday, after spending about six months of incarceration.
He walked out of Kuje Correctional Centre after the completion of his release formalities.
The former governor, alongside a former Director of Finance and Account of Abia State, Mr. Ude Jones Udeogu, were arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on 36 counts of money laundering to the tune of N7.1 billion.
They were jailed in December but they appealed the verdict of the court.
While with Kalu in his Abuja residence, the host and his guests were seen wearing face masks, and each keeping a respectable distance from the other.
Sources close to the Abia Senator said the purpose of the visit by his colleagues was to boost his morale.
