By: Our correspondent

Lawyer to embattled former PDP spokesman, Olisah Metuh, Onyechi Ikpeazu ( SAN) has said his client is willing to return the N400 million he (Metuh) allegedly received from the national security adviser, Sambo Dasuki.

Metuh’s lawyer while speaking to journalists in court on Wednesday, said that since his client have shown sufficient evidence that he (Metuh) did not know the source of N400 million transferred to his company account by Dasuki, he is willing to refund the said amount.

“Chief Metuh had shown sufficient evidence that he was not aware of the source of the N400 million made available to him by the former President and he has shown his willingness, since the commencement of this matter, to refund the said sum even when there is no guilt knowledge,” Ikpeazu said.

Ikpeazu said that even though they have lost in an application made at the Appeal Court, his client has the right to go ahead to the Supreme Court to seek justice if he desires.
