Human rights activist wants PDP spokesman to resign from party

Metuh has since been released from Kuje prisons, after meeting his bail conditions.

 

A Human rights activist, Comrade Idris Abiodun Usman, has called on the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) spokesman, Olisa Metuh to resign.

Usman said “It is certain that until Olisa Metuh is convicted or otherwise, by the court, where is he currently facing charges, his duty as the spokesman of PDP may be hampered by the questions that his utterances may raise, particularly when it has to do with the conducts of the current administration.”

Adding that “The PDP should be reorganised, and you cannot reorganise the party with the tendencies of fictionalization rearing its head.”

Metuh was arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), following his alleged involvement in the $2.1b arms purchase scandal, and arraigned in court on various charges.
