By Bimbo Ogunnaike

Former Spokesman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olisa Metuh, has lost in a bid to stop his trial in N400 million scandal case.

Metuh is currently on  trial on criminal charges before the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) in Maitama, Abuja.

According to Justice Bello, “the view of this court is that the application for a no-case submission is lacking in merit. It is hereby dismissed.”

The court odered Metuh to enter defence in respect of the prima facie case already established against him by the prosecution.
