The Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission has said it does not require former President Goodluck
Jonathan as its witness in order to prove its money laundering case against the National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, Mr. Olisa Metuh.
The EFCC stated this in its response
filed before Justice Okon Abang of a Federal High Court in Abuja to
oppose the no-case submission by Metuh.
Metuh and his company, Destra Investments Limited, are being prosecuted by the EFCC on seven counts fraud.
The charges include allegations that he
fraudulently received from the Office of the National Security Adviser
in November, 2014 the sum of N400m meant for the procurement of arms and money laundering involving $2m cash transaction.
