– Olisa Metuh has agreed to refund the N400 million he allegedly received from the office of the national security adviser and for which he is being prosecuted

– While welcoming him for being a convert, Ekujumi urged the anti-graft agency not to stop his prosecution for the simple fact that it was already late

– Ekujumi also commended President Muhammadu Buhari for his stand in the face of serious criticisms and name-calling

Olisah Metuh, the former national publicity secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been welcomed and congratulated for deciding to convert from from his stand against President Muhammadu Buhari’s anti-corruption stand.

Nelson Ekujumi, head of the Committee for the Protection of Peoples Mandate (CPPM) expressed joy that Metuh, after all the drama that followed his trial over an alleged N400 million he reportedly received from the office of the national security adviser in the administration of Goodluck Jonathan, has now volunteered to refund the amount as well as support Buhari in the fight against corruption.
Ekujumi also commended the president for “his resoluteness, courage, determination, focus and commitment to winning the war against corruption which is a canker worm that has ravaged the body and soul of the Nigerian state for decades.

“One is also happy that despite the campaign of blackmail, calumny and mudslinging against the anti-corruption war as being one sided, persecution, witch-hunt, vendetta and stifling of opposition from expected quarters of beneficiaries and associates of corruptly indicted persons, the government has remained focused with the results manifesting on a regular basis.”

He recalled that Mr Olisa Metuh had admitted to collecting the N400 million of the diverted funds originally meant to fight insurgency from the office of Sambo Dasuki on the instruction of former President Goodluck Jonathan for a job which cannot be verified.

He however noted that Metuh decided to turn a new leaf “after acting a failed part of his moribund film in which he vowed not to refund a kobo of the people’s money which he collected illegally, went on hunger strike and when his system failed to sustain the hunger because it was alien to it, attempted to eat his confessional paper which he must have mistook for food, attempted intimidating the judiciary by alleging bias after the prosecution had closed its case and when it was his turn to open his defence and then his falling health all with the purpose of stalling his trial.
