Why Do Nigerians Honor Criminals? James Ibori Honored For Developing Ijawland by Jadsy01(f): 11:48am On Aug 29, 2018
According to the Guardian Nigeria, A reception has been held in Akugbene Town to honour Chief James Onanefe Ibori with a chieftaincy title for his developmental projects in the community, the Ijaw nation and the entire Delta State during his1999-2007 governorship tenures.

It can be recalled that James Onanefe Ibori, former governor of Nigeria’s oil-rich Delta state, was sentenced to thirteen years in jail by a London Judge for stealing government funds in Nigeria. The sentence brings to an end the ex-governor’s long road to jail and earns him the repute of the first Nigerian politician to get a jail sentence abroad for stealing public funds – an act which has become an open pass-time for Nigerian politicians.
