Embattled Spokesman of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Olisa Metuh, was today humialted by being brought to the Federal High Court, Abuja, handcuffed.
Metuh, who has been detained for over a week and is standing trial for alleged fraud to the tune of N400 million, was, however, granted bail to the tune of N400 million.
Other conditions include two sureties based in Abuja and the surrendering of his travel documents to the court.
Metuh is to remain in Kuje Prisons, to which he was remamed last week, until he meets the bail conditions.
