Olisa Metuh going to court today
The troubles of the PDP Spokesman, Olisa Metuh is far from over as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has filed fresh charges against him.
This is coming barley 48 hours after Metuh was granted N400million bail over a seven-count charge of corruption by the Federal High Court, Abuja.
Metuh who was arraigned before an FCT High Court this Thursday morning, January 21, was said to be in handcuffs just like on Tuesday. However, the cuffs were later removed as he waited to be taken before a judge.
The EFCC had slammed a fresh two-count charge on him, to which he pleaded not guilty.
The chief judge of the FCT High Court, Justice Bello noted that the case should not have been brought before him if it was already ongoing at a Federal High Court but, counsel to the EFCC, Sylvanus Tahir explained that the new charges, filed on January 18, were not the same as those currently being heard at the Federal High Court.
Bello said the EFCC must produce three witnesses during the next sitting, without failing and the matter was adjourned till January 25, for hearing of an application for bail.
Metuh was also asked to return to Kuje Prison.
