Olisa Metuh Attempts To Eat Statement He Made To EFCC

The detained National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP,  Olisa Metuh, has reportedly torn a statement he made to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC), concerning his alleged involvement in the $2,1billion arms fraud.

Only yesterday Olisa Metuh, who has been in detention since Tuesday last week, admitted to receiving N400m from the office of the National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, and agreed to make public all the assignments he did for Nigeria’s past president, Goodluck Jonathan.

But today he tried to destroy his own written statement after it was presented to him for endorsement and signing. The unnamed Premiun Times source said:Rather than sign the document, Metuh on realising the weight of his confession, seized the documents and proceeded to tear them."

The spokesperson for the EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren, said he was informed about the incident but didn't give any details of it. It would be recalled that Metuh was arrested by the EFCC on Tuesday, January 5 following allegations of his involvement in the $2.1 billion arms deal saga.
