Then I recollected that it was reported that he was on hunger strike and the reason for his action then sank in.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Also, some people have alluded to the fact that he must have been very hungry as a result of his hunger strike and so anything presented to him, must have registered before his reasoning as food to be consumed, but I disagree.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">But come to think of it, his so called hunger strike is not up to a week, because am aware that people go on hunger strike for months for causes and their mental state remains intact. But all the same, that shouldn&#8217;t be a yardstick because one&#8217;s mental state as a person is always responsive to our actions and environment.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Therefore, my advise for the EFCC now is that they should better get a psychiatrist to examine the mental state of Olisa Metuh in view of his latest act, lest the next time, he attempts to eat his cloth or probably grass when he is being ferried to court.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I don talk my own<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nelson Ekujumi<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One was moved to pity when news broke that the spokesperson of the opposition party, the PDP, Mr Olisa Metuh who is currently a guest of the EFCC for his&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":45568,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-45567","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-articles-opinions"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
