PDP National Secretary Olisa Metuh who is facing charges for allegedly collecting N400m from Dasuki, an offence the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) described as money laundering, was handcuffed for the third time yesterday, January 22 at the Federal High Court In Abuja. He was however granted bail in the sum N300m and two sureties in like sum for tearing up his statement.

But in a twist, the deputy national publicity secretary of the PDP, Alhaji Abdullahi Jalo, told The Punch on Friday, January 22, that the party will not provide sureties for Metuh since he was being prosecuted for offences that have nothing to do with it. He said, “Metuh didn’t represent the party in the alleged crimes he’s being prosecuted. The party didn’t benefit from the alleged crime.

“So, he is going to look for sureties himself. We won’t be involved. He would carry his own cross alone, without the party being involved.” However, friends and associates Metuh were doing everything possible to get the sureties as demanded by the courts, according to the national legal adviser of the party, Victor Kwon,

Meanwhile widespread condemnation have continued to trail the hancuffing of Olisa Metuh by the Nigeria Prison Service (NPS). Several PDP members have described the handcuffing of the national publicity secretary of their party, Olisa Metuh, by the NPS as a gross abuse of human liberty.

Interesting and I am not really surprised.

James Hadley Chase Wrote a book titled " It is lonely when you are Dead "

And according to the rules of life 101" Failure is an Orphan"

So what happened to the Banner carrying rent-a-crowd free our Metuh people?no payment after the first "protest"?

This man will learn the hard way that * No matter as Goat squeeze face reach for market, somebody must price am*

Oga Metuh,Nigeria dey price you now.

Why should the party get involved in providing sureties for him when they were not officially involved in the crimes or deals that he was involy in?
