The embattled spokesperson of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Tuesday tore a statement he voluntarily made to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission regarding his alleged involvement in the $2.1billion arms fraud being investigated by the anti-graft agency.

Those familiar with the matter told PREMIUM TIMES Mr. Metuh tore the statement after it was presented to him by the investigating officer for endorsement, as part of preparations for his prosecution.

“Rather than sign the document, Metuh on realising the weight of his confession, seized the documents and proceeded to tear them,” one of our sources said.
He added that the PDP spokesperson later tried to stuff the papers into his mouth in a bid to swallow them when he was stopped by operatives who managed to recovered the torn pieces of papers from him.

Another source in the EFCC said the attempt by Mr. Metuh to destroy a major evidence in the case against him was an offence which could attract a separate charge in court.

“The tearing of statement is tantamount to willful destruction of government property and it is a serious offence,” the official said.
“Also the fact that he obstructed operatives from performing their job is also a criminal offence. We will explore the possibility of filling a separate charge against him at the Federal Capital Territory High Court.”

I think efcc should charge this man to court,keeping him under the aegis of their enslavement won't ameliorate the situation.

I'm still waiting for a conviction from a law court before I will join in this new madness of trial by media

Nigerians and their animalistic intellect or lack thereof. In this day and age, a man cannot make a confession and he is presented with the written confession only for him to tear the paper. Does it mean that EFCC cannot afford electronic tape recorder? A voice-recorded confession is more damning than a useless written confession on a silly piece of paper. APC, Buhari and EFCC are bunch of useless dimwits. These goons can only bamboozle gullible Nigerians.

Olisah Metuh has broken his hunger strike by eating statement paper.

How I wish it's FFK that EFCC is currently pickimg their teeth with his case file,it would have AWESOME.

As for Metuh,he will still sing and dance Harry song's"Reggae blues"at the appropriate time.

Opposition is not by running mouth.

This report said a written statement was presented to him for endorsement.

How can unsigned statement be attributed to Olisah Metu without his signature?

Does EFCC arrest people before evidence or the opposite?

This article is not only a fabricated lie but also a publicity stunt

They interrogate you by mouth, write the statements by themselves and then give you to sign. Funny daurans!

Olisa Metuh is a die hard criminal. He should be given a bail of 1.4billion naira.

The man is hungry. Give him BANANA

A popular goat (yam eater) went rogue. Where are the psychiatrists?

Go back and read again may be now with your glasses.

what annoys me most is that tomorrow this same useless will contest for political office and people will still vote for him

The same man that said he will rather go on hunger strike than return 400 million.'' Now he's eating paper''. Is he trying to break his fast? Nigeria politicians and their criminal minds. Their comedic quality is second to none.

Nurse Metuh and his fellow collaborators are doomed!!!!!

I think Olisa Metu has just tore his bail bond papers. So he has many more days to spend in kirikiri

What kind of job could have attracted the disbursement of 400million to Metuh? is he a contractor?instead of you to ask the right questions and see things in a more reasonable and a concerned citizen, you're playing politics here.

Na so madness dey start....when did goats start eating papers?
