Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, has disclosed that the Nigerian High Commission in the United Kingdom has engaged the services of lawyers to defend the senator representing Enugu West Senatorial District, Ike Ekweremadu, and his wife, Beatrice.
Lawan made this known while giving details about the outcome of a closed session held by the upper chamber before the start of plenary proceedings.
The closed-door session which started at about 10:57 a.m ended at 11:49 a.m.
Ekweremadu, alongside his wife, was arrested by the UK Metropolitan Police last Tuesday for conspiracy to harvest the organs of a minor.
