Metuh in More Trouble, Ordered to get N600m Bond for Tearing His Statement

For the wife of Olisa Metuh to be running to churches for prayers, she knows her husband is in trouble.

His problems were compounded further on Friday as a Federal Capital Territory High Court in Maitama, Abuja, granted the PDP National Publicity Secretary bail in the sum of N300m with two sureties in like sum. The total bail sum is N600m‎.

So far, Olisa Metuh needs to come up with about N1Billion before he could go home...

Metuh is on remand in Kuje Prison by an order of a Federal High Court in Abuja with respect to charges of money laundering involving N400m, part of money meant for procurement of arms, which he collected from the Office of the National Security Adviser.

Justice Ishaq Bello, before whom ‎Metuh was arraigned on two counts of destruction of evidence while in the custody of the EFCC for investigation into the money laundering case, ordered that the residences of the two sureties to be presented by the accused should be verified by filing of documents in that respect before the court.

Metuh, who was brought to court by prison officials on Friday was still battling to fulfill the first N400m bail granted him by Justice Okon Abang but now another N600m has been slammed on him.
