Jonathan visits Ekweremadu

Dr Goodluck Jonathan, a former president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, has visited Ike Ekweremadu, the deputy senate president.

The former president visited Ekweremadu after an attack at the lawmaker's home in Abuja. Ekweremadu has claimed that the attack was an assassination attempt on his life but police has disputed that, claiming instead that it was a burglary.

Ekweremadu shared photos from Jonathan's visit on his Instagram page.

He captioned them: "AND GEJ CAME CALLING

"It was an honour for me and my wife to receive His Excellency, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, GCFR and my friends, who came to strengthen us over the recent attack on our household. My appreciation and respect, sir.

"Meanwhile, I have received so much love and solidarity from Nigeria and all parts of the world since the event of the early hours of Tuesday. Let me, therefore, seize this opportunity to convey my profound appreciation you - friends, my colleagues, associates, dear country men and women - for the outpour of solidarity and prayers. I am humbled and overwhelmed by your kindness.

"God bless."
