One of the judges handling the money laundering and corruption trial of former PDP spokesman, Olisa Metuh has died.

Justice Steven Evoh Chukwu died in the early hours of Wednesday in Abuja.

According to sources, the judge didn’t wake up fromsleep on the day he was expected to return to court.

The development forced the Federal High Court Abuja judges to reschedule Metuh’s trial for today.

Metuh will be standing trial today before Justice Okon Abang of Court 10.
