BREAKING NEWS, Political Briefs
–
Richard Ihediwa, special assistant to Olisa Metuh has dismissed the idea that his boss was among the people in court to stop the Peoples Democratic Party’s forthcoming national convention.
A statement signed by Ihediwa and made available to Realnews on Thursday said: “Chief Metuh wishes to inform the general public that he is not part of the suit seeking to stop the convention and he never instructed anyone to file any such suit on his behalf.
“For the avoidance of doubt, Chief Metuh has taken the pains to consult those that went to court and has been reliably informed that his name was listed in error and which they have promised to rectify accordingly.
“It is pertinent to mention that Chief Metuh has not attended any political meeting and/or programme since his chair accident at a function at the party’s National Secretariat in April wherein he aggravated his spinal cord ailment.
“Our appeal to all and sundry therefore is that Chief Metuh at this time should be left out of intra-party controversies. His only preoccupation now remains matters concerning his health and the extant court trial.”
