Read the press statement below...
Armed men suspected to be assassins last night invaded the house of
embattled former National Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Olisa
Metuh located at Prince and Princess Estate, Abuja.
The armed men numbering about, eight fired several shots and forcefully
gained entrance into the compound after destroying a section of its
spiked security fence.
They tied up security guards and a driver at the
premises and attempted to gain access in the main building, but could
not due to the security doors at the front and back entrances of the
main house.
When they could not gain access into the main building, they beat up the
security guards and ordered them at gunpoint to call out Chief Metuh
using their phones, but the guards insisted that he was not at home but
had travelled to the east.
Out of frustration, the invaders broke into other buildings in the
premises including Chief Metuh’s out-office where they carted away some
documents and electronic equipment. Their escape route trailed with
blood as one of the armed men got injured in the course of their
breaking through the spiked security fence.
Already, a shocked Chief Metuh had made an official report to the police
to unravel those behind the attack and intention manifested in the
incidence. Chief Metuh’s guards and driver are already assisting the
police in their investigation.

Richard Ihediwa
Special Assistant to Chief Olisa Metu
