Court grants Metuh N300m bail for allegedly tearing his statement to EFCC

A Federal High Court in Abuja today granted PDP's National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, N300 million bail over allegations of destroying a statement he wrote in the EFCC head office. Metuh was arraigned in court by the EFCC yesterday January 21st on a two-count charge of destroying evidence to be used against him in a separate trial he is facing relating to the N2.1 billion arms deal fraud.

One of the counts read
“Olisa Metuh on the 5th day of January 2016 in Abuja within the jurisdiction of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory destroyed a document, to wit: a statement made under caution to investigators/operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on the 5th of January 2016, with the intention of preventing the same from being produced or used as evidence in a court of law.”
Metuh pleaded not guilty to the accusation. The presiding judge, Justice Ishaq Bello, then granted him bail in the sum of N300m and two sureties in like sum. Justice Bello refused Metuh's counsel, Onyechi Ikpeazu's application to grant him bail on self recognition.

APC keep praying PDP shouldn't go back to power you will all go on exile or commit suicide. APC has taught PDP how to make use of power.... POWER IS GOOD. I pray all this shouldn't turn to war or economic collapse. i can smell it. They are dealing with leaders that knew in and out of country. i pray our country did collapse more than this. PLEASE APC think of how the economic get balance and more better, it has been going very worst for just few month and dont use this stolen money to cover up. Work with PDP to gain your progress first because they knew everything about the country you are ruling now. Get the Key before you lock the Door. and dont make this clear your fighting you opposition.

This country is a frankly stupid country.what nonsense!!!what happened to innocent until proven guilty?the fG is accusing metuh of corruption.metuh is denying.so metuh is either a rich thief or he's not so rich and worked hard for whatever money he has.but now let's see.the court grants bail at 300 mill.if metuh pays fails to pay that ridiculous some he will remain in jail while The case continues.if metuh pays that stupid amout.people will shout ole ole where did he get rich to pay for bail alone with 300 milion.the same thing dasuki.400 million bail.how?if u don't want to grant them bail just say.if they are proved innocent will the court refund their money?those people who wear shouting so what if metuh was taken in cuffs and after all they take ordinary thieves in cuffs too.u are right but I must ask why didn't they start taking him in cuffs from day one?its clearly an act to humilate.I must also ask if they give bail at 400 million to criminals arrested on the street.Things are not being done well in this Pmb adminstration.the legislative were thinking of suppressing media therefore freedom of speech,the judiciary seems to be a tool of the apc(ridiculous bails and pdp governors thrown out while no apc gov has been evicted),federal agencies now witch hunt while the theives in apc are not touched,the executive(the presidency) now disobeys the court of law later it will say no one is greater than the law and gej may be arrested,meanwhile the president refuses court orders.This things are not right.And before some start saying rubbish,just ask urself,if this was the way Gej ran his govt will apc and buhari be in power today???.......LInda Take Note!!!

When you have a fool for a president, this is what you see. Instead of Buhari tackling the pressing issue at hand by creating avenues to provide millions of jobs to the hungry masses, he is busy chasing shadow arresting political enemies. Like Fayose said, the arm deal is more than 600 billion naira, those this govt is prosecuting, the amount they are told they stole is not up to 10 billion naira. So it is an exercise in futility. Now this president is joining hands with the Islamic countries to make nigeria borrow money in the Islamic Bond, thereby tying us to their dictates and Islamising nigeria. That is his sole purpose of running for president to Islamise nigeria but he won't succeed. Finally, all the majority of Nigerians that don't have common sense in voting APC and blaming PDP for all the ills in the society, Fayose has answered their question. Majority of the APC members today are former members of the PDP. So who is deceiving who?

anonymous said...

Otito, you are not worthy to be born a human, you should have been created a reptilian. You call somebody mentally derailed, do you know the meaning of it? I am not against fighting corruption but when it is clear evidence that it is only persons from the opposition that are prosecuted, it tells Buhari is not fighting corruption but his political enemies. Otito, the recovered fund from Abacha loot, where is the money today? How much of the money recovered has reached the poor masses of nigeria? All the money Buhari is trying to recover, how much do you think will get to the poor masses? This is the movie Buhari is playing to distract Nigerians from reality which is that he does not have a clue how to tackle the myriads of problems facing the nation. So Otito or whatever your name is, you have been brainwashed by APC, Association of Past Criminals. Most of them were former members of the PDP that metamorphosed

Jesssssuuuuuuuu buhari won finish metuh.....metuh go just gentle now...GEJ u don see how to use power??

Talk less of how much money he has stolen from money for the election. If I start to spill the dirt on this man, then you will understand why Buhari and the courts have to deal with this man in this manner! Him and the former chairman of PDP are ole's!

Great Job Dear LIB ,but the information says Metuh was granted bail of #300million on bond... Meaning that the one acting as surety for him will pay that amount, If the accused escapes. (That's an interpretation I got from a Learned Lawyer)

Eyaaaaaa sorry

Nobody care abt ur stupid opinion keep dat to ur self

clyde said...

Spill now .What are u waiting for.order from buhari. Metuh has been declared an enemy of the state because he opposed the government so sink that into your brain. I am sure that people would prefer late abacha by the time this wicked regime is done.Buhari is busy deceiving the world with the so called corruption war.we are finished because his whole cabinet including him is a disappointment. None has shown basic knowledge on how to save nigeria. The budget saga is enough to even kick him out.the same man that posed with a satchet milo before campaign is now budgeting 1.7billionb for food. So his meal has suddenly changed.well people at buharis age pray more to ensure they make it on the last day but look at him today punishing millions of nigerians with his shallow knowledge of the 21st century ideas.
