Chief Olisa Metu, former Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has been admitted at the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital (NAUTH), Nnewi.

There were fears over Metu’s state of health when anonymous source disclosed that he was rushed to a medical facility in Anambra following a sudden breakdown. It would be recalled that Metu, who is facing corruption charge, could not appear for his trial at an Abuja High Court on Jan. 22 on health grounds.

Prof. Anthony Igwegbe, Chief Medical Director (CMD) of NAUTH, who confirmed that Metu was on admission at the hospital, declined further comments. But a member of Metu’s family at the hospital expressed worries over his deteriorating state of health. Mr Luke Metu, a family member, said Metu met with them last week and billed to return to Abuja but was rushed to NAUTH from Awka, Anambra capital, following a serious breakdown in the early hours of Saturday.

He said his brother who had been visiting a hospital every month since 2016, was stabilised in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) before his referral to the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital (UNTH) could be effected. He described his state of health as deteriorating and appeal that their son be allowed to have access to better health services.

“He has had spinal cord related ailment which made him go about with waist brace for 15 years but it has deteriorated since he was held in custody and no longer get routine medical attention. “The doctor taking care of him has already referred him to UNTH, Enugu for further investigation and possibly surgery but is waiting for him to be stable before the movement in order not to aggravate the situation. “What we are appealing for is that he should be allowed to access the best of medical services,” he said.

Let him return the 400 metre first and go to anywhere to treat himself...liars!

An innocent man being persecuted all because he's a Christian and an easterner

The irony of this case is that the giver of the money (dasuki) has his case resting in the coolers, while the receiver of the money is been dragged to court while still in the hospital bed

and DASUKI is also a Christian from east abi? For you to be thinking and posting like this in a public forum. It is clear your village people succeeds in your case

There is nothing to fear about his health, infact even after his death FG must collect all the money he stole.

You people must try to twist everything.

So Dansuki who has been in custody since is in a better position than Metuh who is on bail?

If the situation is reversed, you people will still have something to say.

There is no hiding place for all those who steal public money....

Yusuf buhari met karma after damaging his 57 million naira power bike.... A man who just finished school and his dad borrowed money to buy form during elections ..

More and more thieves of our common wealth will meet their Waterloo

Fight against corruption at it's best. Can you kindly remind me the last time dasuki was in court. Haven't the court granted him bail. How are we sure he's still in custody when we've not seen him in court.

Shut it... he is a thief....

This line of thought of urs is bigotry taken too far..
Dansuki has remained locked up in some cell ever since he got picked up, while Metuh has since been released on bail. And bigots like u still somehow finds a way to twist the narrative giving it some weired coloration.
It's daft criticisms like this, which abound the internet space, that re making genuine critics look like foools...
