A prosecuting witness, Junaid Sa’ad on Tuesday told the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja that the spokesman of the Peoples Democratic Party,PDP, Chief Olisa Metuh took N50m out of the N400m given to him by former National Security Adviser, NSA, Col Sambo Dasuki,(rtd) to purchase landed property in Lagos.

Sa’id, a detective at the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC),is the eight witness to have have testified against Metuh.

Testifying before Justice Okon Abang, Sa’id, said the embattled PDP spokesman used part of the slush funds, about N500m, received from the office of national security adviser (ONSA) to buy property at Banana Island, Lagos.

He said, “Investigation revealed that after the payment of N400m by ONSA, a total sum of N366m was paid into the same account by one Kabiru Ibrahim, who also paid in N150m; Capital Field Investment Limited paid in N91m, and one Eyitonye, paid in N82m,”

“These funds formed the naira equivalent of $2m, which the first defendant [Metuh] gave to one Nneka Ararume in cash.

“Investigations revealed that all this money was used for PDP campaign activities and for personal use by the first defendant. The money used for PDP campaign activities were from the sum of N400m. Among the disbursement made, the sum of N77.5m was paid to CMC connect for campaign activities; the sum of N25m was paid to Abba Dabo for campaign activities; and the sum of N21.7m was paid to Chief Tony Anenih. Another sum of N5m was discovered to have been paid to Chief Kema Chikwe, and the sum of N50m was found to have been transferred to a joint account of the first defendant and his wife.

“The sum of N500m was also discovered to have been transferred to Daniel Ford International Limited in two tranches of N200m and N300m for the purpose of buying landed property at Banana Island, Lagos, by Metuh.

“In the course of the investigation, the team visited the residence of the first defendant and invited him to the commission. He was interviewed. After the interview, he was asked if he was willing to volunteer a statement in writing. He said, ‘yes’. When he concluded writing his statement, which was in four sheets, he handed them over to us. I read what he had written. I also gave it to my other team members to read. After that, I returned it to him for endorsement.

“He endorsed the first sheet, he endorsed the second sheet; when he was to endorse the third sheet in which he had stated that the money he received from ONSA was used for PDP campaign activities to settle his personal debts, to the surprise of the team he suddenly tore the sheet. The pieces of the torn sheets were then recovered from him and registered as exhibit.”

The IPOB General- Metuh decided to steal money from the Zoo in order to buy landed property in the Zoo

That is IPOB philosophy

They love the Zoo more than their own village

When is the next IPOB protest biko?

Olisa Metuh has been using your tax money to buy property in Obodo Lagos

Is this good enough?

Its still better than Dubai (am not supporting his source of money anyway)

I don't understand this probe, he received money from someone to do a job, the hammer should fall on the giver and not the receiver, just like falae and anennih also received to do a job, why is metuh's case different.

If we serious about corruption, anybody found guilty should face death penalty, I don't understand why someone who steal tomatoes to feed her hungry kids at home will be burnt and someone who who stole our common wealth will be allow to walk after spending couple of years in a comfortable prison cell.

Why can't you propaganda people use some common sense and be objective
If someone offers a service and makes profit, does it not amount to busy body and gossip to go about discussing whatever the person use their money to purchase?

Come to think of it self. 50m is less than 10% of Linda's house in vgc.

Olisa Metuh has been relatively quiet since his release from Kuje. Is he still PDP spokesperson?
I hope they didn't do anything to his throat while in prison, because the Metuh I know releases press statements against Buhari every two days or so....

Brother to an inefficient buffoon... He has suddenly lost his ranting powers....

different witnesses, different stories, same figure...



kontinu

Stole money to develop another man's land yet they trooped to the streets in their numbers under scorching sun, brandishing placards and chanting war songs over the Goat's arrest and detention.

No wonder they are called Ekpas.

Are these thieves not the same ones that are going to rule us in Biafra if actualized?...........it is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation.

Metuh sef...hope he paid legal and agency fees as well in the transaction
