See better slap Nigerians are so hilarious. See this... A man who claimed to have finished his secondary education at the age of 12 and served before he graduated wrote a book. Another man who falsely declared his assets after running a bank aground wrote the foreword. A woman who said the $15m traced to her was an inheritance from her late mother who died a petty trader was the special guest of honour. And the title of the book is..... *ANTIDOTE For CORRUPTION* Who are these people 5 Likes |

the presiding judge in his ruling declared that Ibori was unlawfully held for one day, 18 hours and 10 minutes between December 20 and 21 last year I guess that was before he was charged to court and later jailed. Nigerian Police holds people more than the stipulated 48hrs without charging them to court though. 2 Likes |

Do you really want us to share this with our friends? Really? Shame on you. When he was jailed you did not ask us to share the news with our friends but because he won a case of unlawful detention for ONE DAY, you now want to share this. I am sure if people like you ever get to power, your corruption will be unprecedented and second to none. Nagisa: |

The judge just made Ibori's appeal look stupid...how dare a convicted looter appeal against his detention. That £1 doesn't even cover anything. |
