TVCE (POLITICS) – The embattled national Publicity secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, Olisa Metuh, may spend more days in the prison.

This is because the national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party has said that it will not provide sureties as required in his bail conditions.

The party said since Metuh was being prosecuted for offences that have nothing to do with it, its embattled spokesperson should look for those who would stand as sureties for him.

Speaking to Journalists in Abuja on Friday, deputy National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Abdullahi Jalo said that it would be wrong for anyone to be expecting the party to provide sureties for Metuh when the party did not benefit from the money he allegedly collected from the former National Security Adviser, Lt Col. Sabo Dasuki (retd.).

Metuh is facing charges for allegedly collecting N400m from Dasuki, an offence the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission described as money laundering.

Though Metuh said he actually collected the money, he said it was for a job he did for former President Goodluck Jonathan.
