The Federal High Court in Abuja has found Mr Olisa Metuh guilty of money laundering in the sum of N400 million.

The trial judge, Justice Okon Abang, found the former National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) guilty on Tuesday while delivering judgement in the suit instituted against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

The anti-graft agency charged Metuh, who is standing trial alongside his company, Destra investment, with seven counts bordering on criminal diversion of the money received from the office of the former National Security Adviser (NSA), Colonel Sambo Dasuki (rtd).

Delivering judgement in the case, Justice Abang convicted the former PDP spokesman of count one of the charges.

“It is my view that Metuh took possession of the N400 million from the office of the NSA without contractual agreement; he is guilty of money laundering and is hereby convicted on count one.”

This is a welcome development. Justice must surely catch up with all looters of our common patrimony. FFK, Fayose, Theodore Orji and son should be next. Kudos to EFCC for deligently prosecuting this case despite all the dramas from the accused who is now a convicted criminal. Kudos also to the fearless judge, he really did well despite Metuh’s theatrics throughout the trial.

After all the drama he was still found guilty. I hope they will give him standby ambulance with stretcher in prison.

I hope Fayose we learn that it is not by drama rather it is by convincing and genuine evidence.

Fayose right now

Good, and shows how bad PDP was. (yes, GEJ and co were corrupt)

Too bad the APC we replaced them with are just the same.

Ah well, in due season, Nigeria would get there....at least some people are now facing justice for stealing our yams.

As usual, he won't get up to 5 years imprisonment on that single count charge. In saner climes, even on a single count charge, he will get nothing less than 20 years imprisonment for a federal offence like this one.
