He said Metuh had engaged him and his services and that of a Public Relations consultant called CNC connect to repackage the image of the party.
Abonyi said, “Metuh called me to work with him when he won the election to occupy the position of the National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, saying his new position has to do with the media and he had no knowledge of the media.
“In a bid to repackage the image of PDP, Metuh informed me that he would be engaging the services of a consultancy firm called CNC connect and together we made presentation to Jonathan.
