Senator Dino Melaye is currently in a stable condition at the National Hospital, Senate President, Bukola Saraki has said.
Mr Saraki said this after visiting the hospitalised senator on Wednesday.
The Senate earlier stood down all items on its order paper during plenary to visit Mr Melaye after some lawmakers were denied access to him.
Mr Melaye on Tuesday allegedly jumped out of a moving police vehicle to resist being taken to Lokoja, an act which landed him in hospital.
The delegation of senators led by Mr Saraki arrived at the National Hospital at about 1.29 pm.
Mr Saraki and other senators present were allowed to visit Mr Melaye at the trauma centre of the hospital.
The visit lasted for about an hour after which Mr Saraki addressed journalists.
He said Mr Melaye is in stable condition and receiving proper treatment.
“After the sitting at the Senate today, we resolved to come here because over 24 hours we have not heard or know about the state of senator Dino.
