The mouth piece of the former ruling party, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olisa Metuh, has been sent to cool his feet in Kuje Prisons over the diversion and unjust spending of $2.1 billion meant for arms to combat the deadly insurgent group called Boko Haram.
Olisa Metuh was docked today Friday 15/01/2016 before Justice Abang Okon of a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja where the judge declared that Metuh should be remanded in the prison.
Prior to his arraignment, Metuh had been in the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, which is prosecuting him for collecting N400 million out of the $2.1 billion meant for the purchase of arms and ammunition.
Justice Okon said Metuh should be remanded in Kuje Prisons until January 19 when the case would be heard again.
He was accused of having received N400 million out of the $2.1 billion meant for the purchase of arms from a former National Security Adviser, retired Colonel Sambo Dasuki who is also facing similar charge.
