Read the press statement below…

Our attention has been drawn to a report circulating in a section of the media, suggesting that our son and spokesperson of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Olisa Metuh made some public comments regarding his on-going case with the EFCC.

We are indeed shocked by this report as Chief Metuh, being a seasoned lawyer of many years standing, had following his appearance in court not only refrained from making public comments but had also directly barred his family and aides from making public comments on the matter since it is now in court.

This family therefore pleads that issues concerning Chief Metuh and the case with the EFCC should not in any way be sensationalized in the media, especially as it is now before a court of competent jurisdiction.

Signed:
Chief Gilbert MetuhFor The Family
