In a unanimous judgement delivered by its three-man panel, the Court of Appeal also ordered the trial judge, Justice Okon Abang, of the Federal High Court, Abuja before whom Metuh is being prosecuted to immediately sign the subpoena filed by the ex-PDP spokesperson.
Justice Peter Ige, who prepared and read the lead judgement of the appellate court, directed Justice Abang to indicate the date which the DSS must produce Dasuki in court and other subsequent dates.
It upheld Metuh’s appeal and nullified the ruling delivered by Justice Abang on February 23, 2017, when the judge refused to grant Metuh’s application for a subpoena to be issued and served on Dasuki.

ReplyDeleteThe Court Of Appeal is right, the accused by virtue of the clear provisions of the constitution, is entitled to every assistance he requires for his defence. When one of his prime witnesses is being held by government agency, it becomes mandatory that he be summoned to court to testify in his defence!
