OLISA METUH RESIGN FROM PDP

Olisa Metuh, a former National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has resigned from the party explaining that he would contribute more to Nigeria’s governance by being non-partisan. In a letter to the PDP’s National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, Metuh lamented the brand of politics in Nigeria. He pointed out that he can no longer participate in partisan politics.

Recall that, in 2016, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, arraigned him for an alleged 400-million-naira fraud accusing him of receiving the huge sum from the Office of the former National Security Adviser. Metuh, however, denied collecting the money, stressing that his former office collected the money and used it to prosecute the election. Despite his denial, the former PDP spokesman was sentenced to prison in 2021 after he was found guilty of seven counts of money laundering.
