A Federal High court sitting in Abuja has adjourned the case of the former spokesman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Olisa Metuh, to February 26.

The EFCC spokesman, Tony Orilade, in a statement, said the anti-graft commission is prosecuting Metuh along with Destra Investment Limited for receiving money from the Office of the former National Security Adviser, ONSA, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd).

He said: “My lord, the challenge at hand right now is that, the lead counsel to the first defendant, Onyechi Ikpeazu, SAN, is not around.

“I spoke with him this morning, and he informed me that he’s still at the collation centre; his younger sister is contesting for the Federal House of Representatives under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party.
