The National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Mr Olisa Metuh has finally regained his freedom from Kuje Prison after meeting his bail conditions.
He was let go about 30 minutes ago. He's pictured below with the New Media director of PDP, Deji Adeyanju after his release.
A Federal High Court had on Wednesday, varied the bail conditions given to Mr Olisa Metuh.
Trial judge, Justice Okon Abang, changed his earlier order that the sureties must be property owners in the Maitama area of Abuja only to an order that the two sureties must be owners of properties in any area of the Federal Capital Territory.
He, however, retained the sum of bail which he put at 400 million Naira.
Justice Abang declined the request of the prosecution, who asked the court to expunge him as part of the verification exercise of the bail conditions on the ground that it is not in his place to make orders for the court.
Mr Metuh is accused of receiving the sum of N400 million from the office of the former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki, without a contract, contrary to the Money Laundering Act.
Mr Metuh, is also accused of converting the said money to funds for political activities of the Peoples Democratic Party.
