A Federal High Court in Abuja today dismissed two applications by the former Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olisa Metuh.

Justice Okon Abang ruled that the application to stay proceedings in the matter and challenging the refusal to release his international passport lacks merit and refused them.
