Olisa Metuh (in handcuff) during a court appearance
The Federal High Court, sitting in the federal capital, Abuja, has refused Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olisa Metuh’s, application to compel Sambo Dasuki, a former National Security Adviser (NSA), to testify in his matter.
The court also declined Metuh’s request to allow him travel to the United Kingdom (UK) for treatment within the period of eight weeks.
Recall that Olisa Metuh is accused of receiving N400 million from Dasuki.
The said funds were meant to be used in tackling the Boko Haram insurgency in the north-east.
Presiding judge, Okon Abang, said his application lacked merit and that Dasuki was not a “compellable witness”.
We’ll be bringing you more details later…
