Secondus who faulted the handcuffing of PDP’s national publicity secretary, Olisa Metuh, during his recent court appearances, however said PDP is not opposed to Buhari’s anti-graft war, but called on the president to also prosecute those in the present administration who are alleged to be corrupt.

He said: “He should bring them to book; we are not against his fight against corruption, but it should be holistic and there must be Rule of Law.

“Look at the handcuffs on PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh. It is wicked and vindictive. Nigerians should see what is happening in a democracy because Metuh is the spokesperson of opposition party. Now, no one can speak freely.

“We are operating under threat and a Police state; our families now live under threat and they are being asked questions at the airport.”

Meanwhile, the trial of Olisa Metuh, national publicity secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), continues today, January 25.

He was again brought to the court in handcuffs before he was docked at the Federal High Court this morning.
